Ascott to operate two Citadines serviced residences in Singapore The Ascott, a wholly-owned unit of CapitaLand, is set to operate two new Citadines-branded serviced residences in Singapore: at the Golden Shoe Car Park redevelopment at Raffles Place and the redevelopment of The Verge in Rochor. Comprising more than 600 units in total, the two new serviced residences will be the Ascott s two largest properties in the city state. These two new additions will bring the Citadines-branded portfolio to five properties with a total of 989 units in Singapore, says Ervin Yeo, Ascott s regional general manager for Singapore and Malaysia. The 299-unit Citadines property in Raffles Place will comprise studio apartments (75% of rooms) as well as loft studios, and one- and two-bedroom apartments. Located within walking distance of the Raffles Place MRT station, the eight-storey serviced residence is scheduled for completion in 1H2021. At Citadines Rochor Singapore (above, left), about 80% of the 320 units will be studio apartments; the remaining will be one-bedroom and loft apartments. Located within walking distance of the Rochor MRT station, the property is scheduled to open in Tiong Seng JV rescinds option to purchase Jervois Road sites On Nov 1, Tiong Seng Holdings 60%-owned joint venture (JV) company TSky (Jervois), exercised its right to rescind the option to purchase two freehold Jervois Road sites. Ocean Sky International owns the remaining 40% stake in the JV. Tiong Seng Holdings announced on July 17 its plan to jointly acquire with Ocean Sky International the two residential sites for $21 million. The two sites have a combined site area of roughly 13,415 sq ft and a gross plot ratio of 1.4. As the JV did not obtain the necessary redevelopment approval for the two sites from the relevant authorities, however, TSky (Jervois) has decided to rescind its right to purchase the properties, according to Tiong Seng. The Warehouse Hotel wins at URA s Architectural Heritage Awards The Warehouse Hotel (above, right) on Havelock Road received an award for restoration and innovation at the 23rd URA Architectural Heritage Awards. URA announced the winners of the award that recognises sensitive restoration of National Monuments and conserved buildings in Singapore. According to URA, the 37-room hotel clinched the accolade because thoughtful restoration and sensitive integration of the old and new helped safeguard the heritage value of the former godown, while adapting it for use as a hotel. The Warehouse Hotel, operated by the Lo & Behold Group, opened its doors in January. JTC launches Jalan Lam Huat site JTC announced on Oct 31 that it had launched an industrial site on Jalan Lam Huat under the 2H2017 Industrial Government Land Sales (IGLS) programme. This marks the fifth of eight sites on the Confirmed List for 2H2017 to be launched so far. Zoned for Business-2 development, the 0.77ha site has a 20-year tenure and a maximum permissible gross plot ratio of 2.5. The site is strategically located in the Northern industrial region, near the Woodlands Wafer Fab Park, says JTC. The tender closes on Dec 26. Fifth straight month of price increases for completed private condos NUS announced on Oct 30 that overall private condominium and apartment prices rose 0.1% m-o-m in September, based on the latest flash values of the Singapore Residential Price Index Series. This marks the fifth straight month of increase in the overall SPRI, according to Nicholas Mak, executive director of ZACD Group. The SPRI Central index saw the strongest growth since April 2017, rising 3.9% over the five-month period. This is due to the limited supply of newly launched private residential homes in the Central Region, which causes buyers to turn to the resale market, says Mak. In September, the Central index rose 0.4% m-o-m. On the other hand, the SPRI Non-Central index saw a 2.1% increase over the same five-month period. The SPRI Small Units index rose just 0.3% over the fivemonth period, but registered the strongest growth for September alone, rising 0.9% m-o-m. Both the SPRI Non-Central and Small Units indices are going through a patchy recovery, notes Mak. Property market sentiment highest in seven years: NUS-REDAS index Overall sentiment for the real estate market stood at 6.6 in 3Q2017, a 0.5 point increase from 6.1 in 2Q2017, and the highest since 1Q2010, when it was 6.8, according to the Real Estate Sentiment Index (RESI) released by the National University of Singapore and the Real Estate Developers Association of Singapore (REDAS). Both the indices reflecting current and future sentiment rose from 2Q2017, continuing the uptrend from 4Q2015. Each quarter, NUS and REDAS hold a survey among senior executives of REDAS member firms to measure real estate market sentiment in Singapore. A score above 5 indicates improving conditions. The survey also found that respondents seemed optimistic about the ongoing collective sale fever even amid development charge rate hikes. While 36.1%, 31.7% and 30% of respondents expected the revision of DC rates to have a significant impact on the pricing of en bloc sales, development costs, as well as the number of en bloc sales, 60.9% of respondents felt the hike would not curb the collective sale fever. Chinese investors continue to shift focus from US to Asia, says Colliers Chinese investors continue to shift their focus from the US to Asia. Of particular interest are the Belt and Road markets of Southeast Asia, which saw increased capital flows, says a recent 3Q2017 report on real estate investment in Asia by Colliers International. Markets such as Vietnam are already seeing strong inbound interest from Chinese investors. Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai continue to be the top three investment destinations in Asia.

3 EDGEPROP NOVEMBER 6, 2017 EP3 MARKET TRENDS ZACD Group s Mak expects the Fourth Avenue site, which is adjacent to the Sixth Avenue MRT station, to draw 10 to 15 bids PICTURES: URA More government land sites rolled out for sale BY ANGELA TEO On Oct 31, URA announced that it would launch for sale at a future date the 1.85ha Fourth Avenue residential site on the Reserve List. This is one of the more attractive sites on the Reserve List of the current Government Land Sales [GLS] programme, says Nicholas Mak, executive director of ZACD Group. A developer had triggered the site for sale after it committed to bid at no less than $448.8 million ($1, psf per plot ratio) for the site. This means the Fourth Avenue site is the second Reserve List site to be triggered for sale in just two months. The previous site that was triggered was the 1.35ha residential site (with commercial on the first level) on Jiak Kim Street at Robertson Quay. A developer had committed to submitting a minimum bid of $ million ($1,250 psf ppr). Analysts are expecting bullish bids for the Fourth Avenue site, which is adjacent to the Sixth Avenue MRT station and in the established residential estate of Bukit Timah. The site, which has a gross floor area (GFA) of 359,066 sq ft, can be developed into a 455-unit residential project. Mak expects the Fourth Avenue site to draw 10 to 15 bids. The top bid in the tender for this site could range from $500 million to $550 million ($1,392 to $1,532 psf ppr), says Mak. This year, most of the GLS sites for sale have drawn more than 10 bids each. The Fourth Avenue site is also in the neighbourhood of the Eng Neo Good Class Bungalow Area and the Raffles Park GCBA. In the vicinity are top schools such as Nanyang Girls High School, National Junior College and Hwa Chong Institution. Just 400m from the Fourth Avenue GLS site is the 104-unit, freehold Royalville, which was put up for collective sale in October at $368 million ($1,509 psf ppr). The 174,176 sq ft, freehold site can be redeveloped into a 323-unit private condominium, assuming an average size of 754 sq ft a unit. If the Royalville site is successfully sold, following the close of its tender on Nov 10, this means 778 units will be in the pipeline in the vicinity of the Sixth Avenue MRT station. Cuscaden Road On the Reserve List is also the 0.57ha Cuscaden Road site, which is adjacent to Camden Medical Centre and within walking distance of the future Orchard Boulevard MRT station on the Thomson East Coast Line. The site has a permissible GFA of 172,482 sq ft, and could yield a residential development of 170 units. Comparable land sales in this prime location are few and far between, says ZACD s Mak. He expects the site to attract eight to 15 bids and bid prices of $250 million to $270 million ($1,450 to $1,565 psf ppr). It is quite likely that the Cuscaden Road site could be triggered in the coming months, says Mak. If the collective sale fever continues to push up land prices, he reckons that could just be the catalyst to trigger the launch of the Cuscaden Road site. Almost all condominiums in the vicinity of the Cuscaden Road site are freehold, comments Mak. Tomlinson Heights and Cuscaden Residences, which are comparable developments nearby, have seen average Adjacent to Camden Medical Centre, the Cuscaden Road site is expected to house 170 units, says URA prices of $2,785 to $1,867 psf in recent transactions, he notes. The 70-unit Tomlinson Heights was completed in 2014, and the 150-unit Cuscaden Residences was completed in Chong Kuo Road Over at Sembawang, the URA has launched a 99-year leasehold site along Chong Kuo Road on the Confirmed List for sale. The tender for the site will close on Jan 30, and its closing is batched with two other residential sites that will be launched for sale in November and December located on Handy Road in Dhoby Ghaut and Sumang Walk in Punggol (an executive condo [EC] site). ET&Co s head of research, Lee Nai Jia, says Kandis Residences, a 99-year leasehold condominium project on Jalan Kandis off Sembawang Road, is a likely comparable to the site on Chong Kuo Road. Tuan Sing had paid $51.07 million ($481 psf ppr) for the Jalan Kandis site in April In the EC market, the number of unsold units have slipped to just 698 in September the lowest since October 2014, notes ZACD s Mak. At the current rate of sales, the developers inventory of launched and unsold EC units would be fully exhausted in about two months if there are no new launches for the rest of This makes the Sumang Walk EC site attractive, notes Mak, as the developer will be able to capitalise on the thinning EC supply by building a new development of 815 units on the site. E ET&CO Just 400m away from the Fourth Avenue site is the freehold Royalville, which was put up for collective sale in October at $368 million ($1,509 psf ppr) The Chong Kuo Road site is located in an established residential area and accessible via the Seletar Expressway, according to URA

4 EP4 EDGEPROP NOVEMBER 6, 2017 NEW LAUNCH About 4,000 people thronged the sales gallery of Parc Botannia during its preview on the weekend of Oct 28 and 29 PICTURES: SING HOLDINGS Parc Botannia to be launched at average price of $1,280 psf BY CECILIA CHOW Parc Botannia, the 735-unit private condominium by Sing Holdings and Wee Hur Holdings, previewed on the weekend of Oct 28 and 29. The project drew a crowd of nearly 4,000 visitors over the weekend. Given the strong response, the developers are expected to launch the project for sale on the weekend of Nov 11 and 12. About 250 units will be released for sale in the first phase at an average price of $1,280 psf. We envisage that we will need to sell the units by balloting at the launch weekend on Nov 11, says Lee Sze Hao, managing director and CEO of Sing Holdings. The project, located on Fernvale Street, has a mix of one- to five-bedroom units ranging from 431 to 1,679 sq ft. At least 62% of the units are one- and two-bedroom types, priced below $1 million. Prices start from $548,000 for one-bedroom units; $738,000 for two-bedroom units; $937,000 for twobedroom-plus-study units; $1.04 million for three-bedroom units, measuring 861 to 1,163 sq ft; $1.3 million for four-bedroom units, measuring 1,130 to 1,507 sq ft; and $1.6 million for five-bedroom units, measuring 1,410 to 1,679 sq ft. We believe our units are attractively priced, given the high bid Lee: We believe our units are attractively priced, given the high bid prices submitted by developers in recent land tenders prices submitted by developers in recent land tenders, says Lee. He notes that the neighbouring 1,390- unit High Park Residences, which was launched in July 2015, was sold out within 20 months of its launch. There hasn t been a new launch in the last two years, notes Lee. Farther down, off Sengkang West Way, private condos such as Fernvale, Rivertrees Residences and H2O Residences are also fully sold. In addition, after Parc Botannia, there is no other government land site (GLS) in the vicinity of Jalan Kayu and Fernvale Road in the pipeline for launch. SAMUEL ISAAC CHUA/THE EDGE SINGAPORE The only other new residential launch in the pipeline in the neighbourhood is an executive condo (EC) project by Hoi Hup Realty and Sunway Development, located on Anchorvale Lane and slated for launch in 1H2018. Interest in Parc Botannia has also been keen because of its proximity to the Seletar Aerospace and the future Seletar Regional Centre. Sengkang is also a sought-after residential neighbourhood, notes Lee. In terms of site attributes, Parc Botannia is adjacent to the Thanggam LRT station, and there will be a gate to give residents direct access to the station. Sing Holdings and Wee Hur will also be building a new 100,000 sq ft park that will sit between Parc Botannia and High Park Residences. Parc Botannia is also located near the Seletar Mall as well as the eateries on Jalan Kayu. Sing Holdings and Wee Hur had purchased the 99-year, 185,085 sq ft site for $287.1 million ($517 psf per plot ratio) in September last year. They beat 13 others to win the hotly contested site. Sing Holdings has a 70% stake in the joint venture and Wee Hur holds the balance. Wee Hur, which has a construction arm, will undertake the construction of the project, which is scheduled for completion in It will comprise four 22-storey blocks as well as full condo facilities and landscaped features.

6 EP6 EDGEPROP NOVEMBER 6, 2017 PERSONALITY Passion for shophouses BY CECILIA CHOW Tucked away amid the supersized Good Class Bungalows of Ridout Road is a little clearing with two blocks of lowrise flats fronting a lawn. These blocks of flats were built by the Singapore Improvement Trust to house the young British professional architects and others who worked for SIT, recounts Julian Davison, anthropologist, architectural historian and former Lee Kong Chian Research Fellow. SIT, the predecessor of HDB, was set up in 1927 by the British colonial government in Singapore to solve overcrowding in shophouses and squatter settlements. This led to the advent of affordable public housing for the mainstream population in Singapore. Incidentally, Davison is a resident of one of these flats on Ridout Road, which are now owned by the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) and available only for lease. It holds nostalgic memories for him, as his father, who worked for SIT as a young architect between 1952 and 1954, had lived in one of these flats too. In the early 1950s, there were no trees here and you had a panoramic view of the whole downtown. The guys who lived in these flats could walk to Queenstown [Singapore s first satellite new town], which was being built then, says Davison. Otherwise, Swettenham-Ridout Road was a rich area with blackand-white bungalows in those days, and not for junior people working in SIT like my father then. His father, Richard Davison, went on to become a founding partner of architectural practice Raglan Square & Partners in The international architectural firm is now known as RSP Architects Engineers & Planners. Did Davison ever aspire to follow in his father s footsteps and become an architect? I ve always loved architecture and buildings, and my father knew that. But he resolutely didn t push me, and he never said, Why don t you become an architect? But he did say to me that, if I liked architecture, to keep it as a hobby. As an architect, he said he was a 95% businessman who went around shaking hands and was in meetings the whole time. It was the young architects who had the pleasure of designing the buildings. Monteiro: This group of ultra-rich foreign investors are interested in conservation shophouses because to them, it s like buying a piece of history Davison: In the early 1950s, there were no trees here and you had a panoramic view of the whole downtown Davison pursued anthropology and is a recognised architectural historian. He is also author of books such as Singapore Shophouse and Black & White The Singapore House , based on the architecture of the bungalows built during the colonial era. He is completing a history of Singapore s oldest architectural practice, Swan & Maclaren, whose origins date back to the late 1880s, with the book scheduled to be published in the last quarter of The next book in the pipeline is the history of Singapore told through its architecture. It is not just about the buildings, but who built them and why they were built then. If you look at the way the city grows, it s always in response to some major historical event, says Davison, who hopes to complete the book by 2019, which coincides with the 200th anniversary of the founding of Singapore by Sir Stamford Raffles. View of the CBD and Chinatown shophouses in Singapore, which are sought after by the foreign rich Sea of shophouses Davison says Singapore was a sea of shophouses in the 1950s. Even in the early 1900s, the representation of Singapore was through its shophouses. Given the ubiquity of the shophouses, it s not surprising that it has become a Singapore icon. The shophouses were gazetted by URA for conservation in areas such as Boat Quay, Chinatown and Little India. The shophouses in Chinatown, particularly in the vicinity of the CBD area such as Amoy Street, Telok Ayer, Ann Siang Hill and Duxton Hill, have also gained the attention of overseas investors hedge funds, private-equity firms and family offices over the past 12 years, notes Simon Monteiro, associate director of heritage buildings at Savills (Singapore). It s about wealth preservation, he says. Given the global market uncertainty elsewhere, Singapore looks attractive by comparison. They want to put their wealth in assets that will hold their value and they can pass on to the next generation. Prices in these areas have soared, as there are restrictions in buying such assets, he adds. Of the 8,900 conservation shophouses in Singapore, only 3,000 to 3,500 units are zoned for full commercial use. Foreigners are allowed to buy only such shophouses, notes Monteiro. Foreign investors and corporate en- PICTURES: SAMUEL ISAAC CHUA/THE EDGE SINGAPORE

7 EDGEPROP NOVEMBER 6, 2017 EP7 OFFSHORE PACIFIC STAR DEVELOPMENT tities are not allowed to buy shophouses zoned for commercial use on the first level and residential use on the upper floors, or those that are zoned for residential use. More than just a building Monteiro has been a specialist in marketing conservation shophouses and heritage buildings for more than 20 years. In that time, he has transacted more than $1 billion worth of shophouses. He still remembers his first deal. It was a conservation shophouse unit at Spottiswoode Park in 1994, and it was sold for $1.6 million. In 2011, Monteiro sold a pair of adjoining shophouses on Neil Road in Bukit Pasoh to Luca Padulli for $17.5 million. Scion of a prominent Milan family and reportedly one of Britain s richest, Padulli is known to be very private, but is famous for his art collection and real estate investments. He is also a co-founder of Camomile hedge fund and asset management firm. Padulli had stated that he would finalise the purchase of the shophouses only if the provenance of the buildings on Neil Road were determined and documented by a historian, says Monteiro. That was when he engaged Davison s service to establish the historical origins of the building. According to Davison, the building was once a biscuit factory owned by a once-upon-atime Biscuit King. Once the provenance of the buildings on Neil Road was established and the deal was completed, Monteiro engaged Tellus Architects to renovate the buildings before it was tenanted to Goethe-Institut Singapore, the cultural institute of the Federal Republic of Germany, which moved in in March The trailblazers that led the way for foreign wealth into Singapore s conservation shophouses included Ed Peter, who bought three shophouses on Duxton Hill in the Tanjong Pagar conservation area 12 years ago. Monteiro had represented him in those purchases. Peter is chairman of Duxton Asset Management, which he co-founded in Before that, he was head of Deutsche Asset Management in Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Since then, you could see the tide of ultra-rich foreigners snapping up shophouses, says Monteiro. Soaring prices As foreigners could buy only shophouses with commercial zoning, Monteiro has seen prices of these shophouses soar over the past 12 years. In 2005, 99-year leasehold shophouses at Duxton Hill ranged from $1.5 million to $1.7 million each. In 2013, the same shophouses were sold for $7 million to $7.2 million apiece, according to URA Realis. Today, prices of 99-year leasehold two-storey conservation shophouses in the CBD range from $2,000 to $2,500 psf; those that have a 999-year leasehold or freehold tenure are commanding prices of $2,800 to $3,000 psf. Prices of highly soughtafter corner units are at least $200 to $300 psf higher, estimates Monteiro. This group of ultra-rich foreign investors are interested in conservation shophouses because, to them, it s like collecting art buying a piece of history and they appreciate the architecture and the story behind it, says Monteiro. As such, he is collaborating with Davison who given his knowledge of shophouses in Singapore and his wealth of research will be instrumental in helping to establish the provenance of these heritage buildings. With this record of ownership, they can pass it along with the asset to the next generation or the next buyer, says Monteiro. It s like the provenance for a collector of an expensive piece of art or antique. Davison agrees. The second and third generations of owners will appreciate the stories behind it, the characters that were once associated with the property. E Pacific Star Development teams up with Dubai developer BY ANGELA TEO Singapore-listed Pacific Star Development has announced that it is teaming up with Dubai developer DAMAC International to jointly develop luxury properties in key Asean cities. Primary markets will be Malaysia and Thailand, followed by Indonesia, Singapore and Vietnam. Pacific Star Development and DAMAC International will jointly identify prime locations in key gateway cities. The partnership will involve the development of not just residential projects, but hospitality and retail projects as well. We are looking at a broad spectrum of development opportunities that will capitalise on Southeast Asia s rising urbanisation, favourable demographics and increasing tourism, says Glen Chan, CEO and managing director of Pacific Star Development. Chan is confident in the collaboration as both partners goals in Southeast Asia are aligned. We can leverage on each other s strengths to bring innovative, high-end When new residential units at DAMAC International s Dubai project, AYKON City, were launched in April, two-bedroom units went for AED1.3 million ($481,630) and above real estate products to new markets in the region, he adds. DAMAC International is part of DAMAC Group, which has collaborated with global brands such as The Trump Organization, Versace Home, Fendi Casa and Bugatti to deliver signature properties over the past 15 years, according to Pacific Star Development. DAMAC Group has delivered over 19,000 homes in the Middle East, with more than 44,000 units including 13,000 hospitality units in the pipeline, according to Pacific Star. One of DAMAC s key projects that was launched in early 2016 was the AYKON City in Dubai, which is an entire city overlooking Dubai Canal. DAMAC launched a new phase of residential units at the development for sale in April this year. Positioned as a luxurious four-tower development comprising residences, hotel apartments, a hotel and office space, the project sits on a prime site along Sheikh Zayed Road. Residential units launched in April include studios as well as one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Two-bedroom units went DAMAC INTERNATIONAL Glen Chan, CEO and managing director of Pacific Star Development, with Hussain Sajwani, chairman of DAMAC International for AED1.3 million ($481,630) and above. While this collaboration with Pacific Star Development marks DAMAC International s maiden foray into Southeast Asia, Pacific Star Development has always been Asean-focused, with projects such as the 562- unit The Address Sathorn Bangkok and the 223-unit Panorama Kuala Lumpur. In Iskandar Malaysia, Pacific Star s freehold Puteri Cove Residences and Quayside mixed-use project comprises two 32-storey condominium blocks, SOHO lofts, Pan Pacific serviced suites and a lifestyle retail centre overlooking a marina managed under the One 15 brand by SUTL Enterprise, a subsidiary of Singapore-based conglomerate SUTL Corp. Separately, Pacific Star Development inked a memorandum of understanding on Sept 26 with Indonesian developer PT Kukuh Mandiri Lestari to jointly build mixed-use high-rise developments on 10ha of seafront land within the Pantai Indah Kapuk 2 (PIK 2) project, a new city in northern Jakarta. We envisage PIK 2 to be a landmark international project on the Jakarta Coastline, says Chan. E

The maiden mixed-use development comprises the Marriott Singapore Novena s 250-room Courtyard by Marriott Singapore Novena, 171 strata medical suites, a 55,972 sq ft retail and F&B space as well as parking space. Located at the junction of Irrawaddy Road and Thomson Road, Royal Square at Novena taps the burgeoning Health City Novena, which is expected to see healthcare space double to 6.5 million sq ft by 2030 in anticipation of 30,000 patients, visitors, students and staff who will be passing through the area. The Courtyard by Marriott Singapore Novena was unveiled on Nov 1. The hotel comprises 175 deluxe rooms, 42 premier rooms and 33 executive rooms with daily room rates prices starting from $ According to Peter Khong, general manager of Courtyard by Marriott Singapore Novena, the hotel spans the 22nd to 33rd floors of the tower and is capped by a rooftop bar and an infinity swimming pool with views of the city. The Courtyard brand is ideal for the location, as it caters for business travellers who want to mix business with leisure, he adds. It s well positioned to capitalise on medical tourism in Novena. Single tower block According to Lisa Goh, Hoi Hup s property development manager, Royal Square at Novena is the first development in the area that has ERA F&B, retail, medical and hotel components in one tower block. Hoi Hup and Sunway had won the white site for the development of Royal Square at Novena in end-2012 with a bid of $492.5 million ($1,631 psf per plot ratio), beating eight other bidders. Being a white site, it also gave us a lot of opportunities to explore the different combinations, to come up with the right mix, adds Goh. Royal Square at Novena is also adjacent to Novena Square, which is linked underground to the Novena MRT station. The medical suites occupy the seventh to 21st floors of Royal Square at Novena. They have their own set of lifts, which require RFID card access, thus ensuring the privacy of visitors, says Goh. The strata medical suites at Royal Square at Novena were launched four years ago. Close to 64%, or 109, of the 171 units have been sold. To encourage more doctors to purchase the medical suites for their own use, Hoi Hup priced them at an average of $4,200 psf. Meanwhile, investors paid a slight premium of an average of $4,380 psf. We want to support doctors who have decided to come out of public and structured hospitals into private practice, says Goh. Below the medical suites, 50 retail and F&B units occupy the first, second and sixth floors.

Hundred Palms hot seller This year, Hoi Hup launched its executive condominium (EC), the 531-unit Hundred Palms, on Yio Chu Kang Road. The project was sold out on the first day of sales at an average price of $836 psf. Given the location of the project and the pricing, we had expected good response, but we did not expect to sell out the project within seven hours, says Goh. In August last year, Hoi Hup and Sunway won an EC site on Anchorvale Lane in Sengkang in a government land tender for $ million, or $355 psf per plot ratio. Hoi Hup and Sunway had the top bid of 16 for the hotly contested site. Goh says the JV partners intend to roll out the new project in Sengkang called Rivercove Residences in 1H2018. The EC project is estimated to have 640 to 650 units. Hoi Hup has no other future development sites in the pipeline. Like other developers, it is seeking suitable sites in both the collective sale and government land sale market, adds Goh. E On Oct 31, How Sun Park and 11 Balmoral Road were launched for collective sale by tender, marking the third and fourth collective sale sites to be launched in five days, since Crystal Tower was launched on the evening of Oct 26. Significantly, the owners of Pearl Bank Apartments, one of the private residential projects in Singapore with the least amount of years left on its lease, are making a fourth attempt at a collective sale. With about 52 years left on its 99-year lease, they will see the lease expire in 2069 if the site is not redeveloped. Meanwhile, the second collective sale site in 2H2017 to receive 100% owners consent before launch is the 17-unit 11 Balmoral Park. The first to receive all owners consent was Tai Wah Building, which was launched for collective sale at $81 million, or $2,035 psf per plot ratio (ppr), on Oct 9. Receiving full consent from owners is likely to shorten the time it takes for the winning developer to take ownership of the site. With developers looking to replenish their land banks, the close of the tenders of Jalan Besar Plaza, Royalville, Tai Wah Building and Mayfair Gardens in mid-november is expected to be keenly watched. 11 Balmoral Road The owners of the 17-unit apartment block at 11 Balmoral Road have unanimously agreed to put their development up for en bloc sale at $75 million. Including estimated development charges of $10 million, this translates into an estimated land rate of $1,761 psf ppr, according to sole marketing agent JLL. This is the first en bloc sale attempt by the owners of 11 Balmoral Road. With 100% consent, the sale would not need to go through strata title board approval, so the buyer can take ownership of the site at the end of the vacant possession period, explains Tan Hong Boon, regional director of capital markets at JLL. The developer can therefore plan for the marketing and building of the new project more quickly, he adds. The property sits on a 30,200 sq ft, freehold site zoned for residential use with a gross plot ratio of 1.6 under the 2014 Master Plan. With a gross floor area (GFA) of 48,320 sq ft, the site can therefore be redeveloped into a new 64-unit apartment project, assuming an average size of 755 sq ft for each unit. Given the palatable absolute price for the freehold site, its prime location and 100% consent obtained by the owners, JLL s Tan expects the development to attract interest from a wide pool of developers. The tender for 11 Balmoral Road closes on Nov 29. How Sun Park According to Sieow Teak Hwa, managing director of Teakhwa Real Estate, the marketing agent for How Sun Park, the freehold development on How Sun Road has an indicative price of $78 million. After including estimated development charges of $2.92 million, the land cost works out to $1,052 psf ppr, or $1,014 psf ppr if the 10% bonus GFA for balconies is included. In the event the collective sale is successful, each owner of the 20 townhouses in the development will walk away with at least $3.9 million each, he adds. As at Oct 31, 19 of the 20 owners (95%) have consented to All the owners at 11 Balmoral Road have given their consent for the collective sale of the property the collective sale. The existing development sits on a freehold site of 54,943 sq ft. Under the 2014 Master Plan, the site is zoned Residential, with a plot ratio of 1.4, which translates into a GFA of 76,920 sq ft. The developer could build a new residential project with 102 units, assuming an average size of 753 sq ft for the new units. Near How Sun Park is Sun Rosier, which was sold en bloc to a SingHaiyi-Huajiang International Corp joint venture in September at $271 million ($1,325 psf ppr). How Sun Park is within walking distance of the Bartley MRT station. The tender for How Sun Park closes on Nov 28. Pearl Bank Apartments Pearl Bank Apartments is expected to be launched for collective sale in two weeks. This will be its fourth attempt at a collective sale. The reserve price will be $728 million. After factoring in a lease top-up premium of about $195 million for the site, this translates into a land cost of about $1,505 psf ppr. The buyer will not need to pay development charges, says Colliers International, the marketing agent. Pearl Bank Apartments sits on a land area of 82,376 sq ft and has a gross plot ratio of 7.2 under the 2014 Master Plan. The site has an existing GPR of As such, subject to authorities approval, the site can be redeveloped into a residential project with a total GFA of 613,530 sq ft. This translates How Sun Park is located nearby Sun Rosier, which was bought by a SingHaiyi-Huajiang International Corp joint venture in September at $271 million TEAKHWA REAL ESTATE Pearl Bank Apartments is making its fourth attempt at a collective sale with a reserve price of $728 million into 730 units, assuming an average size of 800 sq ft for the new units. Pearl Bank Apartments contains a total of 280 apartments as well as eight commercial units. It has 52 years left on its 99-year lease. Crystal Tower On Oct 26, the freehold Crystal Tower was up for sale by tender. The asking price was $138 million, or $1,406 psf ppr, based on the existing GFA. The property is situated on an elevated 60,482 sq ft site, which is zoned Residential under the 2014 Master Plan. The site has a plot ratio of 1.6 but, subject to authorities approval, can redeveloped up to its existing GFA of 98,179 sq ft, reflecting an equivalent plot ratio of 1.623, according to exclusive marketing agent Edmund Tie & Company (ET&Co). The property can be redeveloped to house about 130 units sized from 753 sq ft, says Swee Shou Fern, senior director of investment advisory at ET&Co. No development charge is payable. Located on Ewe Boon Road, the 28-unit Crystal Tower is within a 1km radius of Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) and Singapore Chinese Girls School. The tender exercise will close on Nov 28.

10 EP10 EDGEPROP NOVEMBER 6, 2017 DONE DEALS Unit at Ardmore II sold at $2,678 psf THE EDGE SINGAPORE BY TIMOTHY TAY The rising tide of optimism in the luxury private residential market is helping to lift prices in the resale segment, says Dominic Lee, head of The Luxury Team at Prop Nex Realty. Strong sales momentum in the primary market has also driven down inventory, with buyers turning to the resale market for good deals, he adds. In the prestigious Ardmore Park area, it is not just Wheelock Properties Ardmore Park Condo and Ardmore Three that are seeing strong buying interest, but Ardmore II as well. The 118-unit Ardmore II is the second of three in Wheelock Properties Ardmore Series. Launched in September 2006, the condominium was fully sold within a few months at an average price of about $2,600 psf. All the units are identical four-bedroom units of 2,024 sq ft. The 36-storey twin tower project was completed in On Oct 23, a unit on the 20th floor of the condo changed hands for $5.42 million ($2,678 psf). This is the latest of half a dozen transactions done so far this year. The other five saw prices ranging from $2,421 psf for a 14th-floor unit to $2,866 psf for a 36th-floor unit. The first in the Ardmore Series, the 330- unit Ardmore Park Condo was launched 21 years ago at the peak of the 1996/97 property boom. It attracted queues for days before its launch. The freehold development was sold out within three days and prices crossed $2,000 psf, which was a record then. Even today, more than two decades later, Ardmore Park Condo is considered the benchmark for luxury projects. The development, which has three 30-storey towers, sits on a sprawling eight-acre site. All the typical units are four-bedroom units of 2,885 sq ft each. There are also four 8,740 sq ft penthouses. At the market s peak in 2010, one of the penthouses fetched $30 million ($3,432 psf). Prices of units that changed hands at Ardmore Park Condo this year ranged from $2,773 psf for a 15th-floor unit to $3,293 psf for a 25th-floor unit. Most of those sold this year were priced above $3,000 psf. Ardmore Three is a departure from the rest in the series. Unlike the first two, which have four-bedroom units, all the 84 units at Ardmore Three are three-bedders of 1,744 to 1,798 sq ft so as to attract the younger set. The single 36-storey tower was completed in Prices, which started at $2,989 psf for a low-floor unit, hit a high of $4,335 psf when a unit on the 36th floor was sold for $7.7 million in June this year. Prices at Ardmore Three have been relatively stable, notes PropNex s Lee. This year, units sold above the 30th floor have been priced at more than $4,000 psf. E The resurgence in resale demand is causing prices at Ardmore II as well as the other two developments in the series to climb Singapore by postal district Residential transactions with contracts

The seller, believed to be a foreigner, had purchased the unit for $10 million ($2,769 psf) when the luxury condominium was launched a decade ago. The 1,129-unit, 99-year leasehold project was designed by renowned architect Daniel Libeskind and completed in The project comprises six 24- and 41-storey towers and 11 six- to eight-storey villa blocks. As the owner of the four-bedroom unit lives overseas, the unit has been leased out for the last six years to the same tenant, who is paying a monthly rental rate of $17,000, says Valerie Yong, senior group director at Vestor Realty, the marketing agent for the unit. Yong says the tenant loves the unit as it commands views of the marina and the sea from the living room, master bedroom and junior master bedroom. The owner of the unit has decided, however, to put it on the market at $7.8 million ($2,022 psf). There s interest in the unit for sale and even a serious offer, says Yong. This year, two other four-bedroom units of comparable sizes in villa blocks have been sold. A 3,722 sq ft unit on the seventh floor was sold for $7 million ($1,880 psf) in April; and a 4,357 sq ft unit also on the seventh floor was sold for $10 million ($2,294 psf) in March.
