    Allgreen puts in top bid of $72.3m for Handy Road site

    By Joyce Teo, Property Correspondent


    ALLGREEN Properties has put in the highest bid of $72.3 million for a thin strip of residential land on Handy Road, next to Plaza Singapura.

    A new residential development on the site - a short distance from Orchard Road - would enhance the area's vibrancy and boost property values, say analysts.

    The Urban Redevelopment Authority tender for the 3,586 sq m site closed yesterday after drawing four bids. The second-highest bid of $70.4million came from Alliance Development. The other two bids were $68.65 million and $50.5 million.

    Allgreen's bid works out to $669 per sq ft (psf) of potential gross floor area.

    Some consultants had expected higher bids as they reckoned that a new development could sell for as much as $1,500 psf to $1,600 psf.

    Mr Li Hiaw Ho, executive director of CB Richard Ellis Singapore, said Allgreen's bid is 'reasonable' and works out to a break-even price of about $1,000 psf. The 99-year leasehold site has a height limit of 10 storeys and a maximum gross floor area of 10,041 sq m.

    Mr Li said the units of the new project on the site are likely to be sold for $1,300 psf on average.

    This takes into account that sub-sale prices of units in the neighbouring 8 @ Mount Sophia project have risen above $1,000 psf and those at the nearby 50-unit freehold Nomu development are selling at $1,100 psf to $1,300 psf.

    The site for Fraser Centrepoint's 8 @ Mount Sophia, which achieved an average price of $730 psf in 2005, cost just $280 psf.

    'The new project will be attractive to home owners and investors because it is strategically located next to Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station,' said Mr Li. It is also close to The Atrium At Orchard, the cineplex at The Cathay and the Singapore Management University campus.

    The Cathay has 76 apartments for lease on levels nine to 17. And when the new condos are ready, the area will have more residents.

    The area could liven up further if the collective sales of older mixed developments Peace Centre and Parklane Shopping Mall around the corner succeed.

    Peace Centre and the adjoining Peace Mansion were just recently put up for sale at an indicative price of $470 million.

    GOOD LOCATION

    'The new project will be attractive to home owners and investors because it is...next to Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station.'
