Key Highlights

Tender awarded to United Venture Development (2022) Pte. Ltd.
Winning bid of $524.3 million
Expected yield of about 425 residential units
Prime city-fringe site near Farrer Park / Little India
Likely to attract both own-stay buyers and investors

Location & Connectivity

The Dorset Road GLS site is located within the city-fringe area near Farrer Park and Little India, offering a highly central position with convenient access to the city and established amenities.

Buyers are likely to be drawn to its proximity to MRT connectivity, shopping options, food enclaves and the wider Novena / Orchard / CBD catchment. This makes the location relevant not only for own-stay buyers, but also for investors looking at rental appeal in a central location.

Location takeaway: Dorset Road is a city-fringe GLS site with strong central accessibility, mature amenities and broad buyer appeal, especially for those who value convenience and proximity to town.

What This GLS Site Means for Buyers

With the land parcel now awarded, Dorset Road becomes one of the confirmed upcoming private residential launches in the central city-fringe area. Compared to sites that are still at planning stage, a tender-awarded plot offers greater certainty in terms of eventual development progress.

For buyers, this creates an opportunity to start planning early, whether in terms of financing, exit timing from an existing home, or comparing future launch options in nearby districts.

Land Bid Analysis & Pricing Implications

The site was awarded at $524,300,800, which works out to approximately $14,405.06 per sqm of GFA. This land cost forms an important part of the eventual launch pricing benchmark for the future project.

Beyond land cost, actual launch prices will also depend on construction cost, financing environment, product positioning, layout efficiency and the competitive landscape at the point of launch.

What this means: Buyers should expect future pricing for Dorset Road to reflect both its city-fringe location and the relatively strong land cost paid by the successful tenderer.

Estimated Pricing & Market Positioning

Given its central location and the profile of the tender-winning consortium, this future development is likely to be positioned as a higher-quality city-fringe private condominium project.

Final pricing will only be confirmed closer to launch, but the project is likely to be watched closely by buyers comparing other central and city-fringe new launches across the Rest of Central Region and nearby prime districts.
