Golden Mile Complex en bloc attempt again at $800m

Golden Mile Complex en bloc attempt again at the same reserve price of $800 million as its last collective sale failed to secure any successful bid. February 28, 2022 will see the close of the tender.

Golden Mile Complex en bloc:

In October 2018, its owners attempted to sell the property en bloc, but both tenders in that round failed to attract buyers.

The building was designated as a conservation building in October 2021. The complex houses 718 units in a 16-storey building. The remaining lease is 47 years.

In August 2019, the collective sale recommenced.

At the price tag of $800 mil, the indicative land rate would be $1,350 per square foot per plot ratio (ppr psf). This includes topping up of lease and differential premiums.

A maximum gross floor area of 81,000 square metres is expected for the site. An additional 30-storey tower can also be built alongside the conserved building.

Developers need to adhere to the conservation guidelines for the Golden Mile Complex. Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) is giving additional perks. These include a partial tax exemption for new additional floor space, an increase of one-third in floor area with full tax exemption for floor space that is conserved, refreshing of lease back to 99 years and the possibility of adjusting the boundaries of the 1.3 ha parcel.

It is the Singapore government’s intention to revitalise this iconic landmark Golden Mile Complex. It is inviting developers to submit their bids to realise the full potential of this historic building.

The Golden Mile Complex is zoned for commercial uses, so additional buyer’s stamp duty (ABSD) is not needed to be paid. In addition, ownership by foreign nationals is allowed.

The Golden Mile Complex was constructed in 1973 and is the first major complex to be preserved in the neighbourhood. Signature features of this building include slanted beams, step terraces and staggered staircases.

As part of the present tender, a feasibility study of the Golden Mile Complex will be launched by URA so as to assist potential tenderers in incorporating restoration works into their proposal evaluation.
