About
The Hyde, tucked away in Goodwood Hill is a laidback escape from the busy city life. A sense of tranquillity presides the Hyde, a world away from the excitement of Orchard Road right next door.
Carefully balancing the modern aesthetic construct against the backdrop of abundant nature, the full height glazed windows guarantee amazing views, and the innovative design of the building gives a feel of elegance to those living there.
