New luxury condominium rises along Farrer Road

D’Leedon will be the first condominium in Singapore to be designed by internationally-renowned Pritzker Architecture Prize winner Zaha Hadid.

The residential property s being developed by a CapitaLand-led consortium that includes Hotel Properties Limited, a fund managed by Morgan Stanley Real Estate and Wachovia Development Corporation.

In a statement, CapitaLand said a total of 1,715 units – comprising 1,703 apartments and 12 exclusive semi detached houses – will be built on the expansive 840,049 sq ft site. The apartments are spread over seven residential towers, with each enjoying a cluster of facilities tailored to the lifestyles of the respective groups of residents.

The residential towers occupy only 22% of the site, freeing up a vast landscaped area of over 650,000 sq ft dedicated to greenery and recreational facilities.

The project’s seven 36-storey residential towers are within walking distance to the Farrer Road MRT Station on the Circle Line, and close to highly-sought-after top schools like Nanyang Primary School, Raffles Girls' Primary
School and Hwa Chong Institution, as well as popular lifestyle hubs such as Dempsey Hill, Holland Village and Orchard Road.

The first preview sales to former owners of Farrer Court will be held this weekend, followed by the public launch. This first launch will be for 200 choice units located across  all floors in two residential towers, with unit types ranging from one plus study- to four- bedroom units. The average price of the units is S$1,680 per square foot.

Christopher Lim, Group Executive Director of Hotel Properties Limited, said, “d’Leedon has been a closely-watched development, and that is not unusual if one considers its prestige, scale and location. We are pleased to create a new benchmark in Singapore’s residential development scene together with our partners and world-class architects.” 

Wong Heang Fine, CEO of CapitaLand Residential Singapore, said, “High-end projects, as well as projects with strong location attributes, continue to be attractive to Singaporeans as well as foreigners. The foreigners appreciate Singapore's dynamism and vibrancy. Given its prestigious District 10 location and striking Zaha Hadid design, we are confident that d’Leedon will be well-received by investors and discerning homebuyers who appreciate living in a beautifully-designed architectural icon. We are excited to play a part in shaping Singapore’s landscape with this striking landmark.”
