Eugene Lim, key executive officer at ERA Singapore, thinks that the site might be granted a higher plot ratio provided its area at the corner of Whitley Road and Dunearn Road. “There is a possibility of a higher plot ratio being enabled on the site, like 1.6 or 2.1, similar that a taller property development might be developed there to act as a site for the crossway.”

In its statement, SLA and URA say the redevelopment of the area for residence usage will “sustain future housing demand and boost the residential appearance of the development”.

Lee Sze Teck, top executive for information analytics at Huttons Asia, believes the plot, that is located throughout an exclusive non commercial enclave, will be sold for private housing. He anticipates the site might be referred a plot ratio of 1.4 offered its surrounding low-rise properties. To that degree, it could likely be become a high-end venture with 160 to 190 units with an average unit size extending from 915 to 1,076 sq ft. If the spot released for tender now, it could draw a winning quote of over $1,500 psf per plot ratio, he estimates.

The location, which evaluates an approximated 132,639 sq ft, is located at 1 Plymouth Avenue in District 11. It is throughout walking distance of the Stevens MRT Interchange. RTC will definitely proceed its operations at the place till the contract concludes, whereupon it will certainly be needed to return the property to the state.
