Several onlookers were gazing at the woman with interest from an opposite block.
The woman is believed to have slipped and gotten stuck on the ledge while cleaning windows, reported 8world News.
In response to queries from MS News, SCDF said it received a call for assistance at about 10.35am on Monday (13 Jan).
The location was Block 848 Tampines Street 82.
When SCDF personnel arrived, they saw a person was seen standing on a ledge outside a unit on the 10th floor.
SCDF deployed a safety life air pack and a Combined Platform Ladder to reach the person.
She was eventually secured with a safety harness and brought down to the ground floor using the ladder.
As a precautionary measure, rescuers from the Disaster Assistance and Rescue Team were on standby.
The person declined to be sent to the hospital after being assessed by a paramedic, SCDF said.
