About Former Fairhaven and Sophia Ville Collective Sales
Fairhaven and Sophia Ville are situated in Singapore’s Prime District 9 at 128 and 130 Sophia Lane. S$62 million was paid for the Fairhaven and Sophia Ville Combine Sites when they were sold as a whole.
This agreement was negotiated by JLL Singapore, the authorized selling agent for the combined sale of Fairhaven and Sophia Ville.
The two adjacent combined sales locations launched their bids in late August and concluded in September. More than 80% of homeowners have agreed to the en bloc sale, therefore this is the next step. SS$64 million was the initial asking price for the property, which was reduced to S$62 million after a lengthy negotiation.
With a total plot ratio of 2.1, the combined properties cover 23,828 square feet. Residential uses are permitted under the Urban Renewal Authority (URA) Master Plan for 2019. They may be redeveloped into a new single enormous premier residential property since it has 53,541 square feet of gross floor area.
Potential of the Site
Because of its central locations, Sophia Ville and Fairhaven will provide any prospective investor more latitude in terms of unit size, however, JLL cautioned that they may need to wait for essential approvals.
According to Yong Choon Fah of JLL Singapore, this partnership between Sophia Ville and Fairhaven would benefit both the owners and any potential purchasers.
As a result of this combined sale, Ms Yong believes that the owners would be able to get higher and better prices than if they were selling on their own. Those who are interested in purchasing a high-end property will also have more options.
Mr Yong added that the properties would be well-suited to small-scale ventures and family offices that aimed to generate long-term rental revenue.
Only 400 meters from the homes are the Dhoby Ghaut MRT Interchange station and the commercial center of Orchard Road.
