White House Road is a minor road in Tanglin, Singapore. Located in Postal District 10, it connects Stevens Road to Dalvey Road. The road has a total length of about 630 metres. Branching out from it is White House Park.

According to Singapore Street Names1, White House Road once passed through a large nutmeg and betel nut plantation called White House Park which was owned by one Gilbert Angus (1815-1887). The namesake, Whitehouse, was built by Angus in 1862.

Originally, White House Road was part of White House Park. It was renamed to White House Road in 1955. It is today a leafy neighbourhood with landed residential properties.

About this website



Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
