SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - A consortium of local companies led by property developer KSH Holdings has acquired Euro-Asia Apartments at 1037 Serangoon Road for $222.18 million. The collective sale was brokered by Low Choon Sin, managing partner of SRI Capital Market.
The 84-unit development sits on a 56,476 sq ft site that has a plot ratio of 2.8 under the latest Master Plan. Thus, the purchase price translates to a land rate of $1,313 psf per plot ratio, inclusive of bonus balcony area.
According to a media release by the developer on July 26, the collective sale of the freehold property was through an indirect 49%-owned associated company called KSH Ultra Unity. The other owners of the company are H10 Holdings and SLB Development who hold an equity interest of 36% and 15% respectively.
Euro-Asia Apartments had been put up for collective sale on June 1 this year, and it had a guide price of $218 million. The owners of the development had also attempted an enbloc sale in 2018 with a guide price of $200 million at the time.

“The outcome of tender is well received with various interest from developers,” says Low Choon Sin, managing partner of SRI Capital Markets. He adds: “The site’s attributes further enhance the attractiveness to allow the developer to build an iconic highrise residential development along the prominent Serangoon Road.”
The developers say that they intend to redevelop the site into a new residential development with about 172 residential units.
Based on a compilation of nearby transaction data by EdgeProp Singapore, most of the existing properties in the area have recorded approximate resale prices that range from about $1,000 psf to $1,800 psf.
