Woods Square spans a vast 199,874 sq ft, which includes 494 office units and 39 retail units across four tower blocks that are built with a green vision

Today, Woodlands, in Singapore’s North region, is no longer known just for its immigration checkpoint. It is poised to take its place as the largest economic hub in the North of Singapore.

This vision is attributed to the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) that has set out a 15-year plan to refresh Woodlands. In years to come, new spaces for residential, business, industry, research & development, and learning & innovation will be introduced to the Woodlands Regional Centre on over 100 hectares of developable land. With the residential areas increasing, the Woodlands Regional Centre will see an increase in population, thus leading to the need for more work spaces to be closer to home.

The Woodlands Regional Centre is within close proximity to Singapore’s agri-tech and food corridor, such as urban farms at Agri-Food Innovation Park and Senoko Food Zone’s innovation cluster. The Woodlands Regional Centre is located near established industrial estates, including the newly transformed Sungei Kadut Eco-District.

At the heart of this Northern transformation in Woodlands is mixed-used development Woods Square, jointly developed by Sekisui House, Far East Orchard and Far East Organization. With the aim of helping companies elevate their business, Woods Square offers a corporate and conducive work environment. For instance, several of its latest occupants are companies that have relocated their office to Woods Square, while maintaining their warehouse and factory properties in the Northern industrial areas.

Green and smart amenities

The property has received its temporary occupation permit (TOP) in 2020 and spans a vast 199,874 sq ft, which includes 494 office units and 39 retail units across four tower blocks that are built with a green vision. Woods Square is not just surrounded by lush greenery around the expansive property, but it also offers a unique office environment with all the discussion areas on roof tops surrounded by landscaping.

All four of the towers in Woods Square are interconnected by sheltered linkways that allow tenants and owners to cross between the towers comfortably under any weather conditions.

The four tower blocks house premium office units, with unit sizes ranging from 560 sq ft to 22,000 sq ft. The notable feature in these towers is the smart building access, which will provide occupants a high-tech and convenient access to their offices in the buildings at the palm of their hands via a mobile phone application.

Apart from its smart features, all four towers have outdoor lounge areas with pavilions that could be found at the roof top garden. An auditorium and modern meeting rooms can be found at Tower 2 for Woods Square occupants and office owners across all towers to use at a small fee.

Meanwhile, office towers SOLO 1 and SOLO 2 that comprise Small Office Loft Office (SOLO) concept units for sale and lease feature workout facilities, such as a swimming pool and gym for occupants and office owners.

The office spaces in Tower 1 and Tower 2 are modern and spacious, while SOLO 1 and SOLO 2 allow for companies to explore their creativity within the office space as these units have high ceilings, built-in furniture platform and extra indoor storage. This flexible space is perfect for the SMEs and startups.

Convenient accessibility

The beauty of Woods Square is not just its top-notch and modern facilities, the property is strategically located for easy access to several amenities nearby. Woods Square is just a short walk away from the Woodlands Integrated Transport Hub that comprises Woodlands MRT Station on the North-South Line and Thomson-East Coast Line, as well as the Woodlands Bus Interchange.

With Woodlands MRT Station just a stone’s throw away, Woods Square enjoys close proximity – just one MRT stop away – to the upcoming Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link that will allow commuters to travel to and from Johor Bahru and Singapore more conveniently. The expanded immigration counters at the Causeway will streamline traffic and the new rail route will enhance business links and reduce commute time.

Furthermore, Woods Square has access to three expressways, namely the Seletar Expressway, the Bukit Timah Expressway, and Singapore’s first integrated transport corridor, the 21.5km North-South Corridor.

Occupants and tenants of Woods Square will be able to indulge in a variety of amenities located not just within the property, but those located within walking distance as well. Woods Square is connected to the Causeway Point and Woodlands Civic Centre malls via an underground basement linkway. Apart from the large variety of F&B choices occupants can enjoy from the two malls, amenities such as supermarkets can be found in both malls, while companies can have easier access to postal and banking services at the Woodlands Civic Centre.

Currently, the office spaces at Woods Square are still available for sale and lease.
