The tender deadline for a 99-year leasehold mixed-use GLS along Chencharu Close has been extended to Sept 11 in order to give prospective tenderers more time to prepare, according to a HDB circular dated May 9. The circular was sent to those who purchased the eDeveloper’s Packet for the site.
When HDB launched the site for sale in September 2024, it was the first private housing site in Chencharu, a new 70ha HDB housing estate within the Yishun HDB Township.
The site occupies a land plot spanning 316,997 sq ft and has a gross floor area (GFA) of over 1.03 million sq ft. The site can yield about 875 residential units and up to 135,627 sq ft of commercial space.
According to the site’s tender documents, 58,125 sq ft of the commercial space will be allocated for a bus interchange while a further 37,674 sq ft of commercial space is to be designated for a hawker centre.
The GLS site is within walking distance from Khatib MRT Station on the North-South Line. Several sports and recreational facilities are also located nearby, including Yishun Stadium, Yishun Sports Centre and Lower Seletar Reservoir Park.
The site is also near HomeTeamNS Khatib, which will provide additional recreational facilities.
