The Singapore Land Authority (SLA) has announced a Price-Quality tender for a 77,551 sq ft site located at 98 Henderson Road. The site is designated for serviced apartment (co-living) use and is intended to be a modern residence promoting independent senior living and active ageing.
According to the SLA, the property will be leased for an initial tenancy term of four years, with the option of an additional three-year term subject to the government’s discretion. The tender, which is now open, presents a unique opportunity for interested parties to take on a contemporary living concept in a prime location.
The state property on Henderson Road includes a four-storey building, a single-storey building, and a guardhouse, with a total estimated gross floor area of 40,361 sq ft. It also offers seven surface car park lots and one handicap lot.
Designated as a “reserve” plot with no specific land use under the latest Master Plan, the tender requires that the site be used for serviced apartment purposes with a minimum stay of one week. It also emphasizes that no hotel license is needed, and neither F&B nor retail usage will be permitted.
Previously managed by yo:ha, the site was used as a student hostel and is situated beside Econ Care Residence (Henderson), a nursing home managed by Econ Healthcare Singapore. Interested parties can register for SLA’s site visit, which will be held on July 2 and July 9, and the tender for the lease of this state property will close on Aug 7.
