<h3>Champsworth Development purchases 1 Draycott Park for S$72m</h3>
Champsworth Development Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Selangor Dredging Berhad, has purchased 1 Draycott Park from Savills Singapore for S$72 million through a private treaty deal.
The freehold site, approximately 17,442 sq ft, is currently occupied by a seven-storey block. Built in the 1990s, the development comprises eight apartments ranging in size from 860 sq ft to 6,200 sq ft. It is zoned for residential use with a plot ratio of 2.8. The site can be redeveloped up to a height limit of 36 storeys with a maximum permissible Gross Floor Area of 48,837 sq ft.
The property is located in a prestigious residential enclave in close proximity to country clubs, hotels, educational institutions and the main shopping belt of Orchard Road.
Suzie Mok, senior director of Investment Sales at Savills Singapore, who brokered the deal, says, “this transaction signals to the market that the high-end non-landed residential segment has moved on to the next phase of price recovery.”
At the land rate of S$1,787 ppr inclusive of development charge, the breakeven price for the new development is expected to range between S$2,700 and S$2,800 per sq ft.
