The name Kasara, derived from the Sanskrit kassraah, which means ‘lake’, naturally conjures up images of tranquility and restfulness. Just as all bodies of water possess the power to offer a sense of restfulness while rejuvenating and restoring one’s spirit, Kasara, The Lake at Singapore’s prestigious Sentosa Cove is no different. Surrounded by a tropical bamboo forest and fronted by a shimmering lake, Kasara’s coveted location is also in close proximity to and facing one of the most preferred playgrounds of the elite – the Serapong Golf Course. Just 13 exclusive villas, each one unfolding on the horizon like an origami artwork, have been created.

Evoking Asian luxury living at its finest, each villa is a glowing testimony to the continent’s architectural principles, allowing light and air to permeate the expansive space with double-storey screens for privacy and sun-shading, seamlessly melding the indoors and outdoors, while the living spaces are gently punctuated by delightful open courtyards and koi ponds, pools and timber decks cantilevered over the lake. And while the serenity of the location might have you thinking you are in a far-flung oasis, it’s equally reassuring to remember that the main pulse of Singapore beats just a short distance away. Life by the lake is, indeed, beautiful. Go with the flow? Yes, please.
