The tender results for the River Valley Green (Parcel C) Government Land Sale (GLS) site reinforce continued developer confidence in Singapore's prime residential market. Sunway MCL and CSC Land Group emerged as the highest bidder with a tender of $750.6 million, translating to $1,730 psf per plot ratio (psf ppr). The site attracted four bids, despite being the fifth GLS site released within the broader River Valley and Zion precinct, highlighting sustained developer interest in securing a presence within one of Singapore's most established residential enclaves.
Much of this optimism is supported by the strong performance of recent residential launches in the River Valley and Zion area. Projects within the precinct have recorded an average launch weekend sales rate of around 79%, with River Modern achieving an impressive 90% take-up during its launch weekend. These healthy absorption rates demonstrate resilient buyer demand and provide developers with greater certainty regarding future sales.
The precinct continues to appeal to buyers due to its combination of excellent connectivity and lifestyle offerings. Located near Great World MRT Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, the site enjoys convenient access to Orchard Road, Marina Bay and the Central Business District. Residents will also benefit from proximity to Great World City, Robertson Quay, the Singapore River, Kim Seng Park and various dining, retail and recreational amenities, while families are likely to appreciate nearby schools such as River Valley Primary School.
The land parcel is expected to yield approximately 470 residential units, catering to a broad spectrum of buyers including owner-occupiers, HDB upgraders and investors seeking a centrally located development. Despite an increasing pipeline of residential supply within the precinct, the combination of strong locational attributes, robust buyer demand and consistently successful nearby launches is expected to sustain healthy developer interest.
