Bayshore Drive Integrated Development
Bayshore / Bedok South · Developer TBD (1H2026 GLS tender)
A 1,280-unit mega integrated development plugged directly into Bedok South MRT -- this will define the Bayshore precinct, for better or worse, at launch pricing.
Location & neighbourhood
Where this sits on the Bayshore map.
The site sits on Bayshore Drive directly above the upcoming Bedok South MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, at the heart of URA's new Bayshore precinct. The 5.74-hectare plot is the only mixed-use GLS site within the Bayshore Master Plan -- the rest of the precinct is pure residential, tallying toward roughly 10,000 public and private homes plus parkland. The site is bounded by East Coast Park to the south and the mature Bedok South HDB estate to the north.
Character here is transitional: East Coast Park frontage delivers sea-air living, while the Bedok side keeps it anchored to real HDB-tier daily amenities (Bedok Mall, Bedok Interchange) five minutes by MRT. Walkability is strong to the park and the future retail podium; vehicular access via ECP and KPE is clean. Expect the precinct to feel raw until 2029-2030, when the broader 10,000-unit build-out matures.
MRT & transport
- • Bedok South MRT (TEL) -- integrated, under podium
- • Integrated bus interchange on site
- • Expressways: ECP, PIE, KPE
- • To CBD: ~20 min MRT / ECP · To Changi: ~10 min
The developer
Developer TBD -- expect a consortium, not a single name.
As of 20 April 2026, the site is under open GLS tender with closing scheduled for 15 July 2026. Market analysts (CBRE, Edge Singapore, Stacked Homes) expect the top bid in the S$1.9 billion to S$2.1 billion range -- equivalent to roughly S$1,200-1,306 psf per plot ratio. At that quantum and with 242,100 sqft of commercial GFA bundled in, this is effectively a consortium-only play. Likely contenders: CDL-led teams, the CapitaLand family, Frasers-Sekisui House configurations, or the Hong Leong-GuocoLand axis. Less than four bidders is expected -- the capital stack is the filter.
Developer track record matters disproportionately here: integrated developments live or die on mall tenanting, transport hub design, and long-term asset management. Past SG integrated precedents -- Paya Lebar Quarter, Jewel, Marine Parade Central rebuild -- show that the developer's commercial leasing muscle is as important as the residential design. Buyers should read the winning consortium carefully before placing the residential bet.
Precedent integrated SG projects
- • Paya Lebar Quarter (Lendlease)
- • Jewel Changi (CapitaLand-Changi Airport)
- • Sengkang Grand Residences (CDL-CapitaLand)
- • North Gaia / Lentor Modern (GuocoLand)
Unit mix & layouts
What's inside the ~1,280 units.
Indicative -- to be confirmed at showflat. For a mega integrated development of this scale in D16, expect a diversified mix skewed moderately toward 2BR and 3BR for owner-occupier-upgrader demand (the Bedok and East Coast HDB upgrader catchment is deep), a meaningful 1BR count for investors eyeing MRT-direct yield, and a measured 4BR/penthouse count with sea or park views for the top of the price ladder. Expect 1BR around 430-520 sqft, 2BR around 650-780 sqft, 3BR around 950-1,150 sqft. Efficient stacks will matter given the scale.
Efficiency read: integrated developments often carry MRT podium acoustics and odd stack geometries above transport hubs -- specifically ask about stack-to-MRT proximity, track noise, and AHU placement at showflat.
Indicative pricing & PSF context
What the numbers actually say.
Expected PSF band
S$2,400-2,700 (indicative)
Placeholder based on S$1,200-1,306 land rate range and typical 2x breakeven-to-launch multiple for integrated developments. Integrated MRT premium in RCR has historically added 10-15% over comparable non-integrated stock. To be confirmed once land rate is struck.
Resale comparison
Nearby resale references: Seaside Residences (99-yr) on Siglap Link transacting around S$1,900-2,200 psf, Eastwood Green and The Bayshore older 99-yr stock in the S$1,300-1,600 band, and Grand Dunman / Tembusu Grand as recent RCR launch comparables. New launch premium here could hit 25-35% over older 99-yr resale -- justified only if integrated MRT and mall access actually deliver.
Schools, amenities, connectivity
The catchment that matters.
Primary schools (within 1-2km)
- • Temasek Primary
- • Red Swastika (1-2km)
- • Bedok Green Primary
Secondary & beyond
- • Temasek Secondary
- • Bedok South Secondary
- • Victoria School & VJC (school bus catchment)
Malls, F&B, healthcare
- • On-site mall (~242,100 sqft GFA)
- • Bedok Mall / Heartbeat @ Bedok
- • East Coast Park · Parkway Parade · Changi General Hospital
Investment thesis
Why someone would actually buy here.
Integrated TOD anchor
Singapore's transit-oriented integrated developments (Jewel, PLQ, Sengkang Grand) have historically outperformed their non-integrated peers on resale. Direct MRT podium access plus 242,100 sqft of retail on-site is a real daily-convenience moat, not a marketing line.
East Coast lifestyle premium
East Coast Park frontage and the broader Bayshore-Marine Parade axis command a durable lifestyle premium from families and HDB upgraders who specifically want the east. This is a known-quantity demand pool -- not speculative.
Precinct-scale place-making
URA's Bayshore Master Plan builds out roughly 10,000 homes plus parkland, schools, and community hubs over the next decade. You are buying the commercial anchor of a new planning precinct -- that has optionality even if any single unit underperforms.
Changi & CBD dual-reach
TEL to the city is clean, ECP to Changi is 10 minutes. For tenants who work in or around Changi Business Park, Jewel, or the CBD, Bedok South is a rare three-way connector. Rental pool breadth matters for exit liquidity.
Risks & what to stress-test
Where this could bite you.
1,280-unit mega scale = resale overhang
Mega-launches of this size typically see 200-400 units hit the resale market in the SSD-free window. When your stack competes with its own neighbours on the resale screen, pricing discipline on exit becomes real. Model sub-PSF exit scenarios.
Precinct supply concentration
The Bayshore Master Plan will release ~10,000 units over the next decade -- your 2030 resale competes with newer launches on the same precinct map. This is structural, not cyclical. Freehold escape routes in D15/D16 become relevant.
Land-rate-driven launch pricing
If top bid clears at S$1,306 psf ppr, breakeven pushes launch PSF toward S$2,700-2,800 -- narrowing the new-launch-to-resale premium envelope. Wait for tender close (15 July 2026) to judge the math.
Execution risk on the commercial podium
The "integrated" thesis depends on the mall actually tenanting well. A 242,100 sqft podium in an untested precinct is non-trivial -- if the mall under-performs, the residential premium compresses fast. Scrutinise the consortium's retail track record.
Winfred's take
The honest read.
My read: this is the marquee RCR integrated launch of the 2027 cycle, and buyers will pay a real premium for that branding. The question is whether the integrated-plus-MRT story beats the basic math of 1,280 units landing on the same precinct map over the next decade. I've seen mega-launches work when the district has genuine scarcity (PLQ) and struggle when the precinct flooded its own supply (parts of Punggol, parts of Sengkang-Buangkok). Bayshore sits in between -- sea-adjacent is a real moat, but the precinct will not be scarce by 2030.
Who this suits: East-side-preferring upgraders with a 10-year-plus hold, families who want school-plus-park-plus-MRT in one envelope, and investors who specifically want an integrated-TOD asset with broad tenant pool. Who it does not suit: flippers (mega scale hurts SSD-window pricing), yield-first investors (RCR integrated premiums compress yield), and D15 freehold purists -- the freehold opportunity cost in neighbouring Katong stays real for anyone indifferent to the precinct story.
