The site lies no more than a five-minute drive from the Singapore Botanic Gardens. It is additionally close to schools involving Singapore Chinese Girls’ School, Nanyang Primary School and St Joseph’s Institution.
The rent on a plot of property in Bukit Timah at the moment occupied by Raffles Town Club (RTC) will most likely not be extended as soon as it lapses on Oct 17, 2026. In a Nov 20 report, the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) and URA collectively declared that the area is slated for future non commercial development.
Lee Sze Teck, senior director for data analytics at Huttons Asia, feels the plot, which is located within a reserved residence territory, will be sold for exclusive real estate.

To that extent, it might likely be developed into a luxury plan with 160 to 190 units with a regular unit measurements extending from 915 to 1,076 sq ft.

Eugene Lim, primary managing officer at ERA Singapore, feels that the area might be offered a higher plot ratio provided its location at the section of Whitley Road and Dunearn Road. “There is a possibility of a higher plot ratio being permitted on the area, like 1.6 or 2.1, such that a taller development might be constructed there to function as a site for the crossway.”
In its report, SLA and URA state the redevelopment of the area for residential usage will “sustain future real estate need and boost the residence appearance of the precinct”.
