Emerald Hill is lined with heritage-rich Peranakan houses and establishments painted in delightful hues. This street sits quietly in the midst of the malls and traffic of Orchard Road as a carefully restored piece of the area’s past.

The gorgeous house in this painting, terrace house 39, has whitewashed facades and a traditional Teochew gateway featuring emerald green, porcelain roof ornamentations. Abundant foliage adds to the charm of this home! FUN FACT – Emerald Hill used to be a nutmeg and fruit orchard, established by the acting Postmaster General William Cuppage in 1837, before being bought over by businessmen Seah Eng and Seah Boon Kang in 1900. From there, small pieces of the land were sold to new owners who went on to build the terrace houses and shophouses we still see today.
