Located at 81 & 83 Meyer Road, Meyer Park is a 60-unit seafront condo that was completed in the early 1980s. It sits on a land area of 96,672 sq ft that is zoned for residential use with a plot ratio of 2.8. Including a 7% bonus floor area, the site has a max allowable gross floor area of 289,628 sq ft. The site has a north-south orientation with unblocked views overlooking the sea to the south and a landed housing enclave to the north.

Swee Shou Fern, Edmund Tie’s head of investment advisory, notes that the site will appeal to developers, given its “palatable size and quantum”. She also expected developers to be drawn to the site’s city-fringe location and its attributes.
“The successful buyer can consider developing luxurious seafront homes along the prestigious Meyer Road, often referred to as the ‘Nassim of the East’, given the site’s advantage of tranquil city-fringe living, while being in a prime location where there is easy access to a plethora of amenities,” Swee adds.
Meyer Park is located next to the site of Meyer Mansion, the 200-unit freehold condo by GuocoLand that was launched in September 2019. Meyer Mansion sits on the site of the former Casa Meyfort, which GuocoLand acquired en bloc in July 2018 for $319.88 million ($1,580 psf ppr).
The site is also close to Bukit Sembawang Estates’ Liv@MB, the 99-year leasehold property at the corner of Mountbatten Road and Arthur Road. The 298-unit project launched for sale last May and has since seen over 80% of units sold at an average price of around $2,400 psf.
Meyer Park is located within walking distance to the upcoming Tanjong Katong MRT Station on the Thomson East Coast Line, which is expected to be operational in 2024. It is also a short drive to amenities including Parkway Parade, i12 Katong and East Coast Park.
The tender for Meyer Park will close on Feb 8 at 3pm.
