In the private landed housing enclave of the Bukit Timah/Dunearn Road area, there is a cluster of eight bungalows at Jalan Bahasa, a quiet road just off University Road and Chee Hoon Avenue. These eight detached houses sit on a plot of land where Hill Park, a development with 26 double-storey townhouses, once stood. It was built in 1977 by the former Trade and Industrial Development (now TID).

Hill Park was the maiden residential project by TID, a joint venture established in 1972 by Hong Leong Holdings and Japanese developer Mitsui Fudosan. Hill Park was demolished in December 2008, according to EdgeProp Inspector, with written permission granted in June 2012 for the land to be subdivided into nine plots, with each plot to be developed into a detached house.

“It provided a rare opportunity for owners who wanted to develop their own dream bungalow,” says Stephen Ho, vice president of residential services at CBRE Singapore.

One of the buyers of the land plots was a couple who purchased, not just one, but two, adjacent sites and amalgamated them to create a larger plot of 10,682 sq ft. Written permission was obtained in October 2013 for the land to be developed into a two-storey detached house with a basement and a swimming pool.
