The Coralis Floor Plans and Facilities Guide is designed to help you quickly understand which stack, layout and facility mix at Coralis best fits your lifestyle or investment goals, before you commit to a purchase or tenancy.
As part of Homejourney’s wider Coralis coverage – including the main project overview Coralis Complete Guide: D15 Joo Chiat Condo | Homejourney and price trends analysis Coralis Price Trends & Market Analysis 2025 | Homejourney D15 Guide – this guide zooms in on practical, floor‑plan level details and day‑to‑day liveability in this D15 Singapore condo along Joo Chiat Road.
Coralis at a Glance: Key Facts that Affect Layout & Facilities
Coralis is a freehold condominium at 530 Joo Chiat Road, Singapore 427710 in District 15 (East Coast / Marine Parade), completed around 2013–2014 with about 127 units over 20 storeys.[2][7] It is developed by TA Corporation (formerly Tiong Aik) and sits in the heart of the Katong–Joo Chiat lifestyle belt, a stretch I often walk through on weekends en route to i12 Katong and East Coast Park.[2][7]
The project is a single residential tower with a compact site footprint, so understanding where specific stacks sit relative to the pool, road and neighbouring buildings is important when you shortlist units. Being freehold in an established D15 private residential enclave also makes its floor plates and facilities layout more investment‑relevant than a typical leasehold mass‑market project.

Unit Types & Floor Plan Overview at Coralis
According to project data and URA‑sourced summaries, Coralis offers a good spread of compact and family‑sized units:[2][4][5][7]
- 1‑Bedroom: Approx. 400–550 sq ft, typically 1 bath
- 2‑Bedroom: Approx. 800–1,100 sq ft, usually 2 baths[2]
- 3‑Bedroom: Around 1,200–1,300 sq ft[2]
- 4‑Bedroom / Penthouses: Around 2,800–2,900 sq ft, often duplex with roof terrace[2]
Exact stack‑by‑stack plans are only available from the developer materials and URA‑filed plans; Homejourney uses these official references (rather than crowdsourced sketches) to validate layout information and help ensure users are making decisions on accurate, up‑to‑date data. When you speak with a Homejourney‑recommended agent, they can walk you through full PDFs and site plans.
1‑Bedroom Layouts: For Singles, Young Couples & Investors
Most 1‑bedroom stacks at Coralis are efficiently designed with a regular living‑dining rectangle, open‑concept kitchen and an attached balcony. Common characteristics include:[2][7]
- Compact but regular bedroom that can fit a queen bed and small wardrobe
- Single bathroom usually accessible from the living area for guest convenience
- Balcony fronting the pool or city view, depending on stack
Insider tip: If you intend to rent out, tenants in Joo Chiat often appreciate layouts that allow a small study corner by the window. When viewing, look for 1‑bed units with slightly deeper living rooms; this can accommodate a work desk without cramping the sofa area – a subtle but important rental advantage in today’s work‑from‑home era.
2‑Bedroom Layouts: Popular Balance of Space & Affordability
With sizes around 800–1,100 sq ft, many 2‑bedroom Coralis units feel more spacious than newer launches with similar bedroom counts.[2] You commonly get:
- Proper enclosed or semi‑enclosed kitchen – useful if you cook local food frequently
- Two bathrooms, with the common bath accessible from the living for guests
- Good separation between master and common bedroom, improving privacy for sharers
From an investment angle, 2‑bed layouts often appeal to both small families and flat‑sharing professionals working in the CBD or Paya Lebar. When using the Homejourney mortgage calculator at https://www.homejourney.sg/bank-rates or Bank Rates , run scenarios for both owner‑occupation and future rental to understand your holding power.
3‑Bedroom & Larger Units: Family‑Oriented & Penthouses
Coralis’ 3‑bedroom units (around 1,200–1,300 sq ft) and larger 4‑bedroom/penthouse units (~2,800–2,900 sq ft) are designed for families who value space over trendy micro‑layouts.[2]
- 3‑Bedroom units typically feature a clear living‑dining zone, balcony, enclosed kitchen and a small yard/utility area
- Penthouses may include roof terraces and larger entertainment decks, with internal staircases linking living and private areas
Local observation: Families in D15 often host extended family gatherings, especially during festive seasons. If this is your lifestyle, prioritise 3‑bed units with wider dining fronts and rectangular living‑dining spaces, which can flex between an 8‑seater table and additional seating when needed.
Coralis is an older freehold development, so formal “smart home” packages are minimal compared to new launches. However, many owners have retrofitted smart locks, Wi‑Fi–enabled aircon controls and lighting systems. If you are buying a resale unit, factor in a small renovation budget to upgrade to smart features. Homejourney can connect you with vetted post‑purchase service providers, including air‑conditioning specialists via Aircon Services .
Facilities at Coralis: What You Actually Get Day to Day
Coralis provides a standard but well‑curated suite of condo facilities:[2][6]
- Lap pool and sun deck
- Children’s pool / splash deck and playground
- Gymnasium and jogging track
- Barbecue areas and small event corners
- Steam bath
This facility mix is typical of mid‑sized D15 condos. What stands out in daily use is less the list itself than how residents actually use them in the Joo Chiat context:
- On weekday evenings, residents often combine a quick run along East Coast Park (about 5–10 minutes’ drive or a short bus ride via Marine Parade Road) with a steam bath and cooldown at the condo.
- Families frequently use the pool area as a weekend base, then walk out to Joo Chiat or Katong eateries for meals – you are literally a few minutes from spots like Katong Square, i12 Katong and the popular Peranakan shophouse cafés.
Security & Carpark Provision
Coralis provides 24‑hour security with guarded entrance and access control, as well as basement or podium carparking typical for a 127‑unit freehold development.[2][5]
Based on local experience in D15, car ownership is still common among families, especially those who ferry kids to East Coast Park, Parkway Parade or enrichment centres. When viewing, check:
- How convenient the carpark ramps and lift lobbies are for your likely stack
- Whether visitor parking suffices for extended family gatherings – something many D15 families do frequently
Homejourney emphasises safety and transparency, so our partners verify key facility details (e.g. carpark allocation, maintenance schedules) with the latest MCST information where possible, instead of relying solely on older marketing brochures.
