Dunearn House — the first private residential launch in the brand-new Bukit Timah Turf City precinct — has hit the market with two-bedroom units starting from S$1.475 million, and if you’re thinking that sounds steep for 527 sq ft, you’re not wrong to pause. But context matters here. This isn’t just another condo. It’s the opening move in an entirely new district.
Dunearn House isn’t just another condo launch. It’s the opening move in an entirely new district.
Jointly developed by Frasers Property, CSC Land Group, and Sekisui House, the project spans 380 units across five blocks. The land cost alone was S$491.5 million — roughly S$1,410 psf per plot ratio. That’s already baked into your purchase price before a single tile gets laid.
The numbers, plainly:
- Two-bedders: 527–678 sq ft from S$2,799 psf
- Three-bedders: 872–1,001 sq ft from S$2,978 psf
- Four-bedders: 1,184–1,378 sq ft from S$3,030 psf
Compare that to the precinct’s median resale price of S$2,553 psf. Yes, Dunearn House is priced above the neighbourhood average. Think of it like being first in the queue at a new hawker stall — you’re paying for the privilege before the crowd confirms it’s good.
Location-wise, it’s walking distance to Sixth Avenue MRT, with the future Cross Island Line Turf City station within 1 km. Elite schools — Hwa Chong, Methodist Girls’, National Junior College — are nearby. For families already anchored in this part of Singapore, that’s not a bonus. That’s the whole point.
The development carries Green Mark Platinum (Super Low Energy) certification, two clubhouses, a 50-metre lap pool, and around 35% of the site dedicated to green space. Pinnacle Collection units sit in the 19-storey towers with upgraded fittings. Luxury Collection units occupy the lower 10-storey blocks. The precinct also integrates with the Bukit Timah–Rochor Green Corridor, placing residents steps from the Rail Corridor, Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, and Singapore Botanic Gardens. The government has outlined plans for 15,000–20,000 homes across the entire Turf City estate, signalling this precinct is far from a one-project story.
The developers expect 70% take-up at launch. Bold claim. But first-mover advantage in a precinct where the adjacent site already commands S$1,625 psf in land cost? That math doesn’t lie. Adding weight to that confidence, CCR unsold inventory has dropped to approximately 5,487 units as of end-Q1 2026 — the lowest level since Q2 2023 — signalling tightening supply across the broader Core Central Region.
This one’s built for owner-occupiers, not flippers. And in today’s market, that’s actually invigorating.
