Singapore Turf Club closure could field 30,000 new homes
The consultancy predicts that greater than 30,000 new homes might be developed on the location, thinking a gross plot ratio of 2.8 as well as a normal unit dimension of 1,000 sq ft. However, the real number is going to differ based on the last project blueprints.
On June 5, the Government announced that the Singapore Racecourse location in Kranji will certainly must shut by March 2027. The 120-ha site is going to be used for housing and other properties. PropNex chief executive officer Ismail Gafoor states the move “shows the versatility in the state’s approach to taking care of land use in Singapore, where real estate is scarce, but there are several competing demands for space”.

An evaluation of the present master plan proposes where the potential home project could break ground, claims Eugene Lim, major executive officer at ERA Realty Network. “Looking at the present surrounding land uses as demonstrated in the Master Plan, housing usages can be integrated both on eastern and also western portions of the turf club site as a sensible extension of existing domestic usages,” says Lim.
Lee also claims that a driver is required to push Woodlands forward as a regional centre, including that the closure of the Singapore Turf Club, established in 1842, will certainly give urban coordinators the room to reconsider exactly how to position Woodlands for the long term.
Lee Sze Teck, top supervisor of research study at Huttons Asia, sees that though the 120-ha site may be too compact to be categorised as a new standalone township, it will certainly prolong the currently matured Woodlands HDB town. He estimates up to 30,000 new homes can be developed on the land parcel.
The western end of the land parcel along Turf Club Avenue could be start for “low-rise apartments or landed plots as “there are currently existing landed properties at the Jalan Kasau area,” adds Lim. The rest of the area could be filled in with a mix of nature, sports, F&B, retail industry, as well as leisure as corresponding land uses to sustain the residential uses in the location.
Potential redevelopment plans for the stretching site close to Kranji MRT Station will probably add new public and exclusive residential real estate, public green areas, industrial offerings, as well as other social work to that North region of Singapore, states PropNex.
“The revamping of Kranji as a brand-new neighborhood will sustain the ongoing development of the Woodlands Regional Centre, which is allocated as the largest financial center in Singapore’s north area,” states Gafoor, adding this are going to reinforce the workforce to support markets predicted to grow up on Woodlands, Senoko, Lim Chu Kang and Sungei Kadut.
