Recently the Singapore Government has released 2 land plots for bidding, so the private developers can start working on them. These include the SengKang Central (Next to Buangkok MRT station) and the Hillview Rise one. The two sites are brought in the confirmed list for the second half of 2017.
The land parcel at Hillview Rise has a site area of 14296 sq m, so it’s quite large and definitely among some of the best out there. The residential gross floor area is around 40030 sq m. The project is set to add around 535 housing units in total, so it really is a large project.
And yes, it also has quite the impressive location. It’s in a rather established private residential estate. It’s a part of the Bukit Batok Planning area. It’s also bounded by the Hillview Rise in the North and it has a 26.2 meter wide road in the west and south of this premises.
In order to make the most out of this project, the parcel is only for residential development. Basically, you can expect flats or condominiums here and nothing commercial. It’s a nice project since it has a very good accessibility. It’s on the Upper Bukkit Timah Road and it’s also right near the Hillview MRT station. Then there are also the Rail Mall and the HillV2 commercial centers. That alone makes this investment one of a kind and certainly some of the best out there.
Aside from that, the parcel is also set to have some really innovative construction technologies to be used in the region. Although some of these technologies have been available for quite some time, it’s safe to say that integrating the DFMA technologies can be quite a good idea here.
First, the URA will shortlist the concept proposal that deliver a very good construction productivity outcome. The second stage will focus on some of the more acceptable concepts that can be taken into account, depending on the situation. The residential GFA here is rather huge, and thus this can be a very good testbed for some of the better construction technologies that you can find on the market.
The project also gets to be very close to a wide array of crucial amenities, so that on its own is extremely important here. Shopping malls as well as child care centers and many others won’t be a problem. In fact, you also have a proximity to schools too, which include the Assumption English School and the CHIJ school, which on their own are some of the best out there. The Hillview Rise project definitely has potential, but it’s hard to say who will actually get to work on it!
