Deciding which The Shang unit to buy comes down to one question most people skip: what is this home actually for? The Shang keeps it refreshingly simple with three layouts — Type A, B and C — each built for a clearly different life stage. Here’s how to match the unit to your plan in under five minutes.
See full details on the main page → every layout, with sizes and current pricing, lives on the official The Shang page.
The three layouts, at a glance
| Type | Size | Beds/Baths | Units | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | 893 sq ft | 3 / 2 | 239 | Entry own-stay + investors |
| B | 1,076 sq ft | 3+1 / 2 | 180 | Growing / WFH families |
| C | 1,130 sq ft | 4 / 2 | only 30 | Multi-generational |
All three are freehold, with 10-ft ceilings and “hackable” walls you’re allowed to reconfigure.
Type A (893 sq ft) — the smart entry
Type A is the easiest way into a freehold, walk-to-MRT3 address. It’s a genuine three-bedroom (not a dressed-up studio), which makes it the most financeable and most rentable unit in the building. With 239 units, it’s the volume type — but in a low-density project, that still isn’t unlimited.
- Own-stay: young couples and first-home upgraders.
- Investor: the cleanest yield play — lowest entry, widest tenant pool.
Type B (1,076 sq ft, 3+1) — the family sweet spot
The “+1” room is the quiet hero: a study, a home office, a nursery, or a room for a helper or visiting parents. For a growing family or a work-from-home professional, that flexibility is worth more than raw square footage. Only 180 units exist.
Type C (1,130 sq ft, 4-bed) — the rare one
Type C is built for multi-generational living — parents, kids and grandparents under one roof without stepping on each other. With just 30 units in the entire project, it’s the scarcest layout, and the one that sells out first. If a four-bedroom freehold near the MRT3 is your target, this is a decide-early-or-miss-it unit.
A 30-second decision tree
- Buying to invest, or entering cleanly? → Type A. Don’t overthink it.
- Need a flexible extra room? → Type B. The 3+1 is the family default.
- Three generations, or want the biggest and rarest? → Type C. Move fast — only 30.
Whichever you lean toward, the deciding factor should be your life, not the price tag. See how each stacks up on the main project page, then get the exact stack, floor and availability from us.
Quick takeaways
- Type A = smart entry + best rental liquidity.
- Type B = the 3+1 family favourite.
- Type C = rare 4-bed, only 30 units — buy early.
