Here's What Those Buyers Understood. The land cost was $1,037 psf ppr. The Dover Road GLS awarded the same year went for $1,556 psf ppr — 50% higher. Every project launching on that land in 2027–2028 will be priced above Hudson Place. The market understood this before you did. Direct Answer Hudson Place Residences sold 61.5% (201 of 327 units) on its 16–17 May 2026 launch weekend at an average $2,458 psf, backed by a $1,037 psf ppr land cost that sits 50% below the Dover Road GLS awarded the same year. The honest trade-off is transport: One-North and Buona Vista MRT are both roughly 1km away, a 12–15 minute walk, softened only by a free one-year shuttle. It fits tech and biomedical professionals working within cycling distance of one-north; it does not fit buyers who need MRT-walking distance as a daily non-negotiable. 🌟 STAR Scorecard — Hudson Place Residences · One-North · Media CircleJames's professional assessment · D05 · 327 units · Launched May 2026 · Not investment advice | 🏫 S — Schools (15%) | ★★★★☆ | Tanglin Trust, ACS(I), NUS/Fusionopolis nearby — expat-tenant draw, not a P1 ballot play. | | ---------------------- | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | 🚇 T — Transport (35%) | ★★★☆☆ | One-North/Buona Vista MRT \~1km, 12–15 min walk.

The Dover Road GLS, awarded the same year in the same general area, went for $1,556 psf ppr — 50% higher. Pinery Residences landed at a similar $1,004 psf ppr, while Bloomsbury Residences (same consortium, adjacent site) is 85% sold at $2,525 psf. Every new project launching in the one-north corridor from 2027 has to price against land that cost $1,500+ psf ppr — a structural floor Hudson Place's early buyers priced in ahead of the market. ## What the Units Cost 2-bedders (646–700 sqft) start around $1.4M at $2,200–$2,350 psf and remain available. All 14 three-bedroom Deluxe units sold on Day 1; standard 3BR (893 sqft) availability needs checking. 4-bedders (1,152–1,302 sqft) start around $2.7M at $2,400–$2,700 psf. Early-bird discounts applied at launch: $30K off 2BR, $40K off 3BR, $50K off 4BR+. Roughly 126 of 327 units, 38.5%, remained as at launch weekend. ## The Honest MRT Trade-Off One-North MRT (CC23) sits roughly 1km away, a 12–15 minute walk in Singapore's heat; Buona Vista is similar. The developer's free first-year shuttle helps, but it expires and the walk doesn't shorten. For tech professionals who cycle within one-north, drive to work, or work from home, this is manageable. For buyers who depend on daily MRT access and aren't comfortable with that walk, this project will feel operationally uncomfortable over time — be honest about your commute pattern before signing. ## The Rental Yield Case The rental story is driven by a specific, identifiable tenant pool — tech, biomedical and AI professionals working within walking or cycling distance, not speculative demand. A $1.4M 2-bedroom at an estimated $4,000–$5,500/month ($5.70–$7.85 psf) projects to roughly 3.86% gross yield at $4,500/month, or \~4.29% at $5,000/month — strong for RCR. Kampong AI's 2028 completion brings new AI-sector tenants from 2029, and URA's masterplan points to roughly 11,000 new jobs in the precinct by 2035, supporting long-term structural tenant demand. ## Pros, Cons and Who This Isn't For The full scorecard+ Read more− Collapse **The case for:** a $1,037 psf ppr land cost advantage against a corridor already pricing at $1,500+; 61.5% sold on Day 1 validating demand at $2,458 psf; Kampong AI completing next door in 2028 building the future tenant pipeline; ground-floor retail convenience; Bloomsbury Residences (same team, adjacent) 85% sold at $2,525 psf proving the precinct; a strong identifiable tenant pool from Grab, SEA, Razer and Biopolis; 2BR entry from $1.4M, one of few RCR launches at this quantum in 2026. **The honest trade-offs:** a genuine 12–15 minute MRT walk that the shuttle only softens for Year 1; 99-year leasehold with decay beginning immediately; the best 3BR stock (Deluxe) already sold, leaving 2BR/4BR-heavy inventory; RCR pricing at $2,458 psf makes this a growth case, not a value buy; TOP not until September 2029, so rental income starts three years out. **Not for:** buyers who need MRT walking distance as a daily non-negotiable — the shuttle doesn't solve this permanently; buyers wanting Singapore-wide rental income without the one-north employment story, who have better-located alternatives; anyone where the $2.7M 4BR quantum would stretch TDSR — run the numbers carefully first. ## James's Note Why I'd recommend this to a specific buyer, not every buyer+ Read more− Collapse The one-north thesis is real, evidenced by physical infrastructure Singapore has been building since 2001 — Biopolis, Fusionopolis, and now Kampong AI aren't press releases, they're completed or completing buildings with real tenants nearby. The land cost gap is the signal I find most compelling: $1,037 psf ppr acquired against Dover Road's $1,556 psf ppr the same year is 50% higher land cost on comparable ground in the same corridor, and that gap transmits directly into higher future asking prices. The MRT trade-off is honest, and I won't dress it up — 12 to 15 minutes in Singapore's heat is real friction. Know your own commute pattern before you decide whether that's a dealbreaker. ## Frequently Asked Questions How many units sold at Hudson Place Residences on launch weekend?+ 201 of 327 units, 61.5%, sold on 16–17 May 2026 at an average of $2,458 psf — including all 14 three-bedroom Deluxe units, which sold out on Day 1.

Every project launching on that land from 2027 has to price above Hudson Place's structural floor. How far is Hudson Place Residences from the nearest MRT?+ One-North MRT (CC23) and Buona Vista are both roughly 1km away, a 12–15 minute walk. The developer provides a free shuttle for the first year, but it expires and the walking distance itself doesn't change.
