Alba Review 4
The Alba condo is situated just next to the Kampong Java Tunnel and Clemenceau Avenue North. On the other sides of Alba are Cairnhill Circle, Bideford Road, further down is Peck Hay Road. As Alba is located on the upslope Cairnhill Rise, certain Alba units enjoy the uncovered part of the Kampong Java Tunnel though they also receive some noises from there.
Residents of Alba Condo have two short alternatives to walk on path to reach Orchard Road in the shortest time of around 7-10 minutes. Alba residents can either walk down Cairnhill Rise towards BIDEFORD Road. From there, Alba residents can walk all the way down to Orchard Road, bypassing Cairnhill Crest, Grand Park Orchard Hotel and Paragon Shopping Centre.
Alternatively, Alba residents can choose to walk down Cairnhill Rise, go over to Saunders road, past the scenic Emerald Hill Road with its beautiful conserved houses and reach Peranakan Place where Orchard Road is.
