Kensington Park condo goes on sale with a guide price of $1.28b

The property is being sold via public tender.

The Kensington Park condominium in Serangoon Garden has been launched for sale via public tender with a guide price of $1.28b.

The public tender will close on 7 July 2022 at 3 p.m.

Including the development charge (DC) payable of approximately $178.1m, the price will work out to be approximately S$1,414 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr), according to the property’s marketing agent, CBRE.

The land rate will be lower at $1,371 psf ppr if the 7% bonus gross floor area allowed for balconies and a DC payable of approximately $232.1m will be taken into consideration. 

The 316-unit condominium located at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 Kensington Park Drive sits on a 491,000 sq ft rectangular plot with an allowable gross plot ratio (GPR) of 2.1 and a building height control of up to 24 storeys.

It can also be redeveloped into more than 1,000 residential units, subject to a pre-application feasibility study on traffic impact to be conducted and approval from Land Transport Authority, according to Michael Tay (郑兆能), head of Singapore Capital Markets, CBRE.

“With a large residential plot of approximately 500,000 sq ft, a developer will be able to enjoy economies of scale and curate an iconic 999-year landmark development offering a full range of condominium facilities,” Tay said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
