June 1, 2022

SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - Word on the street is that a Chinese buyer recently purchased 20 units in a bulk deal at luxury condo CanningHill Piers. The total purchase price is believed to be over $85 million for the units. The deal was brokered by agents from ERA Realty Network.

The units are across various floors ranging from the sixth to 23rd floors, and they are predominantly three- and four-bedroom units in several stacks. Six of the units are three-bedroom units of 1,259 sq ft, while another five units are three-bedroom units of 1,130 sq ft. The remaining units are large four-bedroom units of 1,959 sq ft.

All the one- and two-bedroom units at CanningHill Piers are said to be fully sold. This recent bulk purchase brings total units sold at CanningHill Piers to 639 units. Hence, the 696-unit condominium project is close to 92% sold. The project was launched last November.

Located at Clarke Quay and fronting the Singapore River, CanningHill Piers is a joint development by City Developments and CapitaLand Development. The project comprises a 24-storey and a 48-storey residential tower linked by a sky bridge.

A redevelopment of the former Liang Court, CanningHill Piers is part of an upcoming integrated development that includes CanningHill Square, with F&B and retail outlets; the 475-room hotel by Moxy under Marriott International; and 192 serviced apartments under the Somerset brand of Ascott, the serviced apartment arm of CapitaLand.

When CanningHill Piers was launched last November, a total of 538 units (77%) were taken up over one weekend, with total sales value of $1.18 billion. Average price of units sold was around $3,000 psf. Even the sole penthouse of 8,955 sq ft on the 48th floor was sold, for $48 million ($5,583 psf).

Chinese national buys 20 units at CanningHill Piers for around S$85m: Lianhe Zaobao

Jun 02, 2022

A CHINESE national is said to have bought 20 units at CanningHill Piers, a condominium along the Singapore River, for more than S$85 million, Lianhe Zaobao reported on Thursday (Jun 2).

The buyer, who is from Fujian, China, is also said to be considering 10 more units, which would bring the total transaction to more than S$100 million, according to Zaobao.

The 20 units that were bought a few days ago include 10 3-room flats priced between S$3.1 million and S$3.3 million, and 10 4-room units priced between S$5.3 million and S$5.6 million.

The deal was brokered by ERA Realty Network, which declined to comment on the deal, Zaobao said.

Zaobao noted that if the buyer goes ahead to purchase 10 more units, the transaction is expected to contribute about S$30 million in stamp duties under the new property cooling measures.

As part of the measures introduced last year to cool the property market, foreign buyers have to pay a 30 per cent Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty, up from 20 per cent previously.

The money used to pay for the units was transferred from Indonesia into Singapore, according to industry sources familiar with the deal, Zaobao reported.

CanningHill Piers, a 99-year leasehold luxury residence developed by CapitaLand Development and City Developments Limited, will be part of the integrated redevelopment on the former Liang Court site when completed in 2025.

The condominium fetched S$1.18 billion during its launch weekend, with homebuyers snapping up a total of 538 units – or 77 per cent – out of the 696 units at an average selling price of around S$3,000 per square foot. (* see amendment note below)

Including the 20 units bought by the Chinese national, 639 units would have been sold in total, making up 92 per cent of the total number of units, Zaobao said.

*Amendment note: The article has been amended to correctly reflect the total sales at CanningHill Piers during its launch weekend.
