The structures are at 1 to 9 Hoe Chiang Road (odd numbers only) and also 2 to 10 Lim Teck Kim Road (even numbers only). Along with the portion area, the overall location has an overall approximated land area of around 18,540 sq ft. The plot is zoned for business use and has a gross plot ratio of 5.6.

The purchaser also has the alternative to redevelop the location as a resort project, which would put the area price at $2,671 psf ppr, inclusive of the approximated LBC of $61.3 million, claims PropNex.
Goh includes that the area is not impacted by limitations restricting the strata subdivision of commercial real estate in the CBD, and that will use even more versatility to the purchaser to redevelop the plot into a strata-titled office building. “The restrictions on strata class is anticipated to crimp the supply of strata-titled workplace units in the urban area centre, and also it will certainly aid to uphold up the need for and rates of such office.”
Tracy Goh, PropNex’s head of investment and cumulative sales, feature the industrial zoning of the area means that it is exempt to additional buyer’s stamp duty (ABSD). On top of that, the top office sector remains resistant, with rental fees rising 5.1% q-o-q in 1Q2023. Goh expects the strong workplace market and also the ABSD hikes declared as portion of the latest round of cooling procedures to lead to revived investment interest in the business real estate sector.
