The Toh Tuck road condo site was the talk of the town during the launch of government land sales in the second quarter of 2016. Anticipating the uptrend of Singapore’s real estate market, it attracted a whopping 24 land-hungry developers to participate in the bidding with Malaysian developer SP Setia emerging winner. Submitting the highest bid at SGD $265 million, SP Setia International (S) Pte Ltd’s offer translates to a Daintree Residence price of land at $939 per square foot based on the maximum permissible gross floor area (GFA) of 26,210 square meter (282,122 square feet).

The highest bid totally exceeded property analyst’s expectiations of between 8 to 16 bidders and at no more than $750 psf ppr. Out of the 24 bidders, the 10th bidder Singland Homes and UOL Venture Investments already submitted a bid of $760.3, which is above the expected $750. Factoring in construction cost, expenses & profit margin together with land costs, it is estimated that Daintree Residence psf should be in the region of TBA. The runner up Singhaiyi Investments and second runner up Centrex Developments were close in their bids at $260.2 million($922.2 psf ppr) and $250.9 million($889.3 psf ppr) respectively.

The Daintree Residence condo is also near to Bukit Batok Nature Park and Bukit Timah Nature Reserve for residents who enjoy outdoor activities. 

Daintree Residences TOP date is targeted to be around mid of year 2022. Judging from their past projects in Singapore such as 18 Woodsville which is a 101 unit freehold development located next to Potong Pasir MRT station launched in 2012, and Eco Sanctuary, a 483 unit condominium along Chestnut Avenue completed in 2016, buyers can be assured of the quality that Daintree Residence condo will bring.

For the Nature lovers

The 1.64 square kilometer nature reserve is sited on the slope of Singapore’s tallest hill, Bukit Timah Hill. Standing at 163.63 metres, it encompasses one of the most comprehensive ecological system being home to about 40% of Singapore’s flora and fauna.
Daintree Residences Bukit Timah Nature Reserve was established a long time ago at 1883, one of the first in our nation. Many avid trekkers love to do their hiking here since, as it has the tallest and longest trail, thus making it a must-go for climbers in Singapore. It was only until September 2014 that the nature reserve underwent one of the most major restoration works. The rebuilding went on for 2 years and finally reopened in October 2016. Hikers can now visit the place again and walk back into the times before Sir Stamford Raffles as most of the vegetation and tropical forest are left untouched at its original state.
