For constructing homes, the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and Housing & Development Board (HDB) have released three sites for sale in Singapore. These sites include Dairy Farm Road, Sims Drive and Tampines Avenue 10.
Issuing a press release, authorities said, “The URA site at Dairy Farm Road is for residential development and commercial use at the first storey. The site at Sims Drive is for residential purposes and the site at Tampines Avenue 10 is slated for an HDB executive condominium.”
All the three sites can yield an estimated 1,880 residential units, with about 500 housing units at Dairy Farm Road, 680 at Sims Drive and up to 700 at Tampines Avenue 10. These sites also have a lease of 99 years.
URA has also released the specification of all the three sites. The Dairy Farm Road land parcel located opposite the Dairy Farm Nature Park, is more than 19,000 sq m in size and has a permissible gross floor area (GFA) of about 41,000 sq m.
