Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wing Tai, and Metrobilt Construction Pte Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Metro, has been awarded a 99-year leasehold prime site at Dunearn Road by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (“URA”) at the tender price of S$532,999,999.
Strategically located within the upcoming Bukit Timah Turf City precinct in District 10, the site spans approximately 19,045.9 square metres and allows for up to 1,400 square metres of commercial space, including a minimum 600 square metres for an Early Childhood Development Centre.

Future residents will benefit from strong connectivity, with the site within walking distance of Sixth Avenue MRT station on the Downtown Line, as well as the upcoming Turf City MRT station on the Cross Island Line slated for completion in 2032. The site is also well-connected by major roads and expressways including the Pan Island Expressway, Bukit Timah Road and Eng Neo Avenue.
In addition, the site provides convenient access to everyday amenities as well as retail and dining options at the Sixth Avenue enclave, Beauty World Centre and Bukit Timah Plaza, all accessible by public transport or a short drive. The site is also in close proximity to several renowned schools including Methodist Girls’ School (Primary), Raffles Girls’ Primary School, Nanyang Girls’ High School, Hwa Chong Institution and National Junior College.
Set amid lush surroundings, the site will also benefit from an upcoming park located adjacent to the development and extensive green network in the precinct, offering residents opportunities for outdoor recreation, wellness and leisure within a verdant environment.
Ms Tan Hwee Bin, Executive Director of Wing Tai Holdings, says, “We are delighted to be awarded this site and to play a role in shaping the exciting Bukit Timah Turf City precinct.
