History:

Alkaff Mansion is an early 20th-century colonial bungalow located on a hill at 10 Telok Blangah Green and is located within the Telok Blangah Hill Park. Built in 1918 by a member of the prominent Alkaff family as a weekend house, it became known for hosting high society parties in the 1930s. After World War 2, the house was abandoned. The mansion served as the headquarters of the World Buddhist Society from around 1970 to 1984 before it was redeveloped into a restaurant and party venue in the 1990s. The property was then returned to the government in 2004 upon closure of the restaurant. Left vacant for a number of years, the mansion was given a new lease of life when an Italian restaurant occupied the premises in 2011, until it ceased operations in 2016. In Dec 2018, the tender of Alkaff mansion was awarded to Jardin Enchante Pte Ltd by the Singapore Land Authority. “The Alkaff Mansion” under the 1-Group collective of lifestyle F&B concepts, will now house three concepts, a Spanish Restaurant named UNA (previously at One Rochester), Txa (Pintxos Bar), and Wildseed Cafe.
