Tracy Goh, head of investment and collective sales at PropNex, notes that the building can be extended or redeveloped to maximise the GFA. “The successful tenderer can add another apartment to its current five units of 533 sqm (5,737 sq ft) and in so doing, boost the gross floor area to 645 sqm (6,943 sq ft) – further enhancing the recurring rental income from this residential building.”
Goh expects keen interest from both local developers and investors for the site, owing to its pricing, freehold tenure and its city-centre location in District 9. She adds that its proximity to a number of MRT stations, including Dhoby Ghaut, Rochor and Bencoolen further boosts the site’s appeal. “Supply of freehold land in the city is limited and this tender presents a rare opportunity for developers and homeowners to acquire a prime freehold residential site in the heart of Singapore’s vibrant Arts and Cultural District in the city,” she concludes.
