Hillview Estate, not to be confused with Hillview Garden Estate, a larger landed area we toured a while back (which, interestingly enough, doesn’t have a single street with “Hillview” in its name) is a small freehold landed estate in Upper Bukit Timah.
The two areas are separated by just one street (Hillview Avenue) and a few condos, but with quite a different feel.
Here’s the Master Plan for your reference: Hillview Garden is near the top of the map, above the other Hillview estate. As you can see from Google Maps, the area is in between a lot of greenery, with Bukit Gombak Hill on one side, Bukit Batok Nature Park on the other, and easy access to Hillview Park Connector.
Unfortunately, when exploring the neighbourhood, you don’t get that sense of open greenery, as the estate is bordered by towering apartments.
