A strata office floor at 15 Scotts, a real estate business project in the Orchard Road district, is up for selling using a statement of interest exercise at an indicative rate of $52.5 million. CBRE is the privileged promotion agent for the property.
Lee expects the pattern to continue, given that Orchard Road is amongst the key areas where strata neighborhood is no more allowed in existing projects and on redevelopment locations. “This restriction will certainly better restrain the supply of good-quality freehold strata workplaces available for sale and also existing good-quality strata workplace developments such as 15 Scotts will stand to benefit,” Lee includes.

The real property is in just strolling distance of the primary Orchard Road retail belt and also Orchard MRT Station on the North-South Line. The station will also turn into an interchange for the Thomson-East Coast Line by end-2022.

The property went through substantial asset upgrade works, including an update of the typical areas and also development of the façade, which was finished in 2015.
