The highest-price transaction recorded on a psf basis was for a 2,885 sq ft, four-bedroom unit at the Ardmore Park condominium. The unit on the 21st floor changed hands for $11.3 million, or $3,917 psf. This is the first time a transaction has crossed $3,900 psf, nudging it closer to the $4,000 psf mark.
Developed by Wheelock Properties, the Ardmore Park condominium was completed in 2001. The condominium has 330 units over three 30- storey towers. Even though the development is now 20 years old, it continues to be the bellwether for luxury condos in the area. (Discover insightful data of any Singapore condominium with our condo directory)
At Ardmore Park, all typical units have an identical layout and four bedrooms of 2,885 sq ft. There are two penthouses in each tower, and these are duplexes of 8,740 sq ft each.
Prior to this latest transaction, two other units had changed hands at prices that surpassed the previous peak of $3,688 psf achieved in January 2010, when a 27th-floor unit fetched $10.64 million ($3,688 psf). One of the units, on the 25th floor, fetched $10.8 million ($3,755 psf) in August. Another unit on the 23rd floor changed hands for $10.75 million ($3,726 psf) in early October.
