Future Direction for Buyers & Investors

While Holland Village seems to be an area that has it all, offering a wide variety of dining and lifestyle options, it is set for more buzz. The Urban Redevelopment Authority’s draft Master Plan 2014 revealed that Holland Village will be further developed as an “identity node”, which means it will not lose the charm and ambience that entice so many visitors and residents.

A new extension adjacent to Holland Village, right behind Lorong Mambong, has been earmarked for a new mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented development that will add to the vibrancy of Holland Village as a great place to live, work and play. A new street, Holland Way, will also be created.

The 23,000 sq m new extension which will take up to seven years to complete, will add another 570 private residential units.

The 15 Holland Hill Review is going to be the last launch in Holland V from the first wave of en bloc sale. Buyer now have more time to select projects in Holland Collections. If the market is demanding for property, in the future there may be another wave of en block sale with projects. The entry price now will be lower than future new developments.

Land Tenure

15 Holland Hill’s freehold status will make it an attractive investment in land-scarce Singapore. At the same time, it helps negate fears of lease decay. As known, the Singapore government will only sell land with leases up to 99-years while some developers who bought freehold land via collective sales are only selling their properties with 99-year leases. In other words, the properties will revert to them once the leases expire. Hence, freehold land will become increasingly rare and this is therefore a good opportunity to snare a freehold property in a prime district.

About The Developer

The exclusive 15 Holland Hill project is undertaken by Kheng Leong Company, an investment group with interests in property development and real estate investment. The company was incorporated in 1949 and began its operations as an international commodity and spice trading company.

Over the years, this changed as the company has evolved into fully developing projects and businesses across the Asia Pacific region from Shanghai and Hong Kong to Sydney as well as London and Los Angeles.

The group has a proven track record in developing refined residences and with a brand voice that connotes quality and value. As a forerunner in the development of refined cluster houses in Singapore, the company’s portfolio includes both residential developments and retail projects in choice locations and prime districts.
