Allgreen Tops Bedok Rise GLS with Competitive Land Bid

The Bedok Rise Government Land Sales tender drew strong interest from developers, marking one of the most competitive suburban land tenders in recent years. A total of 10 bidders participated, exceeding the 8 bidders seen at the nearby Bayshore Road site and matching the strongest participation levels last recorded at Slim Barracks Rise in 2021 . This reflects the continued appeal of residential plots in the Outside Central Region, a segment that remains the anchor of new home sales across the island.

Bellis Residential Pte Ltd, linked to Allgreen Properties, submitted the top bid at $464.8 million dollars, translating to $1,330 dollars psf ppr. The gap with the second placed bid by Hoi Hup Realty was very narrow at just 0.4 percent, highlighting the close competition among developers. The spread from the highest to the lowest bid reached 18.6 percent, showing a wide range of price expectations for this site .

Following the recent launch of Promenade Peak in the Rest of Central Region, Allgreen appears to be extending its footprint into the suburban market through this acquisition. The Bedok Rise site provides an opportunity to tap into resilient upgrader demand in a location with an established track record of strong sales. The success of Seneca Residence next door reinforces that confidence. Seneca, launched on the earlier Tanah Merah Kechil Link GLS site, achieved a full sellout and had originally attracted 15 bidders for its land tender, a sign of strong interest in this precinct .

The Bedok Rise plot is expected to yield around 380 units and is well supported by transport and amenity offerings. Its location beside Tanah Merah MRT station offers immediate connectivity to the East West Line. Nearby expressways such as the PIE and ECP enhance accessibility to the rest of Singapore. Schools in the area, including Bedok Green Primary School and Bedok View Secondary School, add to its attractiveness for families. Residents will also enjoy proximity to markets, sports facilities, and neighbourhood parks .

New Projects Lift Developer Sales to 2,424 Units in October 2025

October 2025 marked one of the strongest months for Singapore’s private new home market, with developers transacting 2,424 units excluding Executive Condominiums. This represented a sharp rebound from the slower September showing of 255 units and exceeded the previous monthly peak of 2,142 units in August.

October’s performance also stood out as the highest monthly developer sales recorded since November 2024 which saw 2,560 units sold. The significant swing in momentum reflected the market’s ability to adapt quickly following the quieter Hungry Ghost Festival period as buyers returned in force to capitalise on the wave of anticipated launches.

The month was defined by four major project debuts which collectively reshaped overall sales. Skye At Holland, Zyon Grand, Penrith, and Faber Residence released a combined total of 2,233 units and accounted for 84.6 percent of all private new home transactions in October.

Their strong take up underscored the market’s continued appetite for well-located and thoughtfully curated developments that blend convenience, product appeal, and lifestyle value.

Overall, October demonstrated how fresh supply continues to be the strongest driver of new home sales. When developers introduce well positioned projects with compelling concepts, the market’s response remains swift and decisive. The results for the month highlight both healthy underlying demand and the stabilising confidence of buyers who remain ready to commit when presented with tangible value and strong locational attributes.

Bukit Timah Road GLS Draws Strong Developer Interest with Top Bid at $1,820 psf ppr

The Bukit Timah Road Government Land Sales (GLS) site attracted strong developer interest, drawing eight bidders in total. The top bid was submitted by HH Investment Private Limited, a company linked to Taiwan’s Huang Hsian Construction Corporation, at $566.3 million or $1,820 psf ppr. This outpaced the second-highest bid from Hoi Hup Realty and Sunway Developments by 12.3%, underscoring robust confidence in the site’s long-term potential. It also marks the highest GLS land bid since the Cuscaden Road site in 2018, which achieved $2,377 psf ppr.

The spirited participation highlights developers’ optimism toward the Core Central Region (CCR) market amid its ongoing recovery. With limited centrally located residential plots available, the strong premium over competing bids demonstrates the strategic value developers place on sites that combine connectivity, exclusivity, and investment resilience.

Located within the Newton Planning Area, the site is zoned for Residential (Non-Landed) use and is expected to yield about 340 housing units. It benefits from direct access to Newton MRT Interchange, linking the North–South and Downtown Lines, and close proximity to Orchard Road and the CBD. This connectivity enhances its appeal among both investors and owner-occupiers seeking convenience and long-term capital stability.

The area’s transformation is further supported by the upcoming Draft Master Plan 2025, which envisions Newton evolving into a vibrant mixed-use precinct anchored around Newton Circus, Scotts Road, and Monk’s Hill. These clusters are set to feature enhanced greenery, improved public spaces, and an integrated mix of residential, lifestyle, and retail offerings. The Bukit Timah Road GLS site will likely emerge as a key catalyst in this rejuvenation, potentially serving as the first major residential development to lead Newton’s renewal journey.

The tender outcome mirrors earlier activity in the Newton precinct, particularly the Kampong Java Road GLS site that was awarded for Kopar at Newton, which attracted seven bids at the time. The consistency of competition affirms the enduring attractiveness of Newton as a luxury residential enclave and its positioning for long-term growth.

Market momentum in the CCR strengthened in 3Q2025, with developers selling 903 units, the highest quarterly figure since 4Q2010 (994 units). This resurgence reflects growing confidence and demand among affluent buyers, buoyed by recent successful launches such as River Green, UpperHouse at Orchard Boulevard, and The Robertson Opus. These projects have reignited enthusiasm for luxury homes through strong branding, architectural distinction, and desirable locations.

The sustained performance of the CCR segment reinforces the market’s resilience, particularly for premium developments that continue to draw discerning local and foreign buyers seeking enduring value.
