URA proposes new residential sites in Sengkang, Woodlands and Bukit Panjang, up to 14,000 new dwellings
The center location consists of pockets of non commercial sites, a proposed place for a park, and a proposed site for a place of worship. Most of the sites in this parcel will have a gross plot ratio (GPR) of 3.9 or 4.2.
Five land parcels were rezoned as part of the most recent amendment to URA’s Master Plan 2019. Three of the locations reside in Sengkang, one in Woodlands and the other in Bukit Panjang. The amendments are “to assist in property development that will sustain the demand for real estate in the places in addition to enable even more residents to have much simpler accessibility to features and public transportation, states URA.
On the other hand, the site at Bukit Panjang is currently occupied by Beacon Primary School. Lee estimates that the site can produce 900 to 1,000 home units and likely be new Built-to-Order apartments.
Two other tracts re-zoned for domestic development are at Woodlands Drive 17 and Bukit Panjang Ring Road.
The three parcels in Sengkang have the possible to be developed into an overall of 4,500 to 5,000 new dwellings in the future, Lee quotes. He thinks the household units are going to be a mix of HDB, executive condominiums (ECs) and private housing.
The westernmost parcel is suggested to be zoned as a pure non commercial place (based on detailed outlining). Huttons’ Lee reckons the western location in Fernvale can house an MRT station for a brand-new line running from Woodlands to Greater Southern Waterfront and travelling through Sengkang. If so, the new terminal will offer the upcoming house in Fernvale. “Nonetheless, it may take years for detailed planning on the brand-new track to be realized,” he includes.
The parcels in Sengkang remain in the Fernvale subzone, restrained by the Tampines Expressway to the North, Sengkang West Drive to the East, Fernvale Street to the South and Jalan Kayu to the West. 2 roadways detached the 3 parcels. “The Fernvale location is an extension of Sengkang town and brings locals closer to Seletar Aerospace Park,” states Lee Sze Teck, senior supervisor of data analytics at Huttons Asia.

The land parcel at Woodlands sits opposite the Singapore Sports Academy and can generate 1,000 houses, according to Lee. Opposite the roadway, a government land sale (GLS) site at Champion’s Way was marketed for $904 psf per story ratio in September 2023 to City Developments Ltd. The area can be become a 350-unit exclusive household venture.
The easternmost parcel also contains a narrow area zoned for non commercial, a different place for a park, and a planned site zoned for health and wellness and primary care. The sites in this parcel may be built higher typically than the previous spot, with a larger gross plot ratio of 4.0 or 4.2.
Some other home advancement sites in the area consist of those on Anchorvale Road, which could generate in between 6,000 and 7,000 new dwellings, adds Lee. Therefore, anywhere from 10,500 to 12,000 new homes could possibly be made available in Sengkang in the future, consisting of executive condominiums and private housing.
