Hong Leong Group Bids $383.5 Mil For Sims Drive Site

The site’s close proximity to local schools like Canossa Catholic Primary School, Geylang Methodist School, Kong Hwa Primary School and Cedar Primary School also make this location attractive to young families, mentions the spokesman. This is a similar trait of One-North Eden with its close proximity to many institutions of education.
GuocoLand gave the second highest bid of $655 psf per plot ratio, a 12% less than the top bid, and even lesser than the rate they gave for the Sims Urban Oasis site of $688 psf per plot ratio back in April 2014. Penrose, the other popular Hong Leong development, is just next door.
With reference to the site’s location near the city and close proximity to the Aljunied MRT station, Colliers International head of research for Singapore, Miss Tricia Song, things the underwhelming number of bids “a surprise”. She attributes the low bid prices to the new requirement that a larger minimum average unit size of 85 square meters the site needs to adhere to. “Residential developers may be assuming some buffer for the 5-year additional buyer’s stamp duty time line too, since it is relatively a large plot of land.” That’s also the reason why Hong Leong has started to also consider smaller plots of land for development, like One North Eden.
Colliers estimates the One north eden sale price to be starting from approximately $1,400 per square feet, after counting in the potentially larger units. The top bid is the least for a private residential land site on a per square feet per plot ratio price basis since Chong Kuo Road near Mandai, which was sold for $681 per squre feet per plot ratio back in February 2018. One-North Eden site was bidded just above $1000.
