Reading Time: 4 minutes

River Valley Green Parcel C is the third and final parcel of the River Valley Green GLS programme — a major government initiative to redevelop the Zion Road and Kim Seng Road corridor into a vibrant new residential precinct steps from the Singapore River. Expected to be launched for tender in April 2026 as part of URA’s 1H 2026 Confirmed List, Parcel C follows Parcels A (awarded to GuocoLand/Hong Leong for Promenade Peak) and B (awarded to OUE for Zyon Grand) in what has become the most anticipated CCR GLS programme of this decade. Strategically positioned in District 9, adjacent to the Singapore River and the Zion Road food centre, Parcel C is expected to yield approximately 325–400 luxury condominium units at launch PSF potentially above $3,000.

What Is River Valley Green Parcel C?

River Valley Green is a URA planned residential precinct along Kim Seng Road / Zion Road in the prime District 9 CCR. The precinct was planned as three separate GLS parcels to be tendered sequentially:

• Parcel A: ~310 units — awarded to GuocoLand/Hong Leong, branded Promenade Peak. Expected launch Q2 2026 at ~$3,000–$3,500 psf.
• Parcel B: ~380 units — awarded to OUE Limited, branded Zyon Grand. Expected launch Q2–Q3 2026 at ~$3,000–$3,500 psf.
• Parcel C: Site area approximately 8,800–9,500 sqm with GPR 5.6, yield ~325–400 units. Tender expected April 2026, developer award June–July 2026, VVIP launch Q1–Q2 2027.

The three parcels together will transform the Kim Seng Road / Zion Road corridor into a luxury residential precinct with approximately 1,000+ high-end condominium units — rivalling the Robertson Quay and River Valley Road clusters that have established District 9 as one of Singapore’s premier riverfront addresses.

Parcel C’s expected location at the southern end of the River Valley Green precinct, closest to the Zion Road hawker centre and the Singapore River waterfront walk, positions it as potentially the most sought-after of the three parcels — particularly if the developer creates units with direct river views.

Why River Valley Green Parcel C Is a Prime CCR Investment

District 9 (Orchard, River Valley) is one of Singapore’s most enduring luxury residential addresses — and for good reason:

• Orchard Road Shopping Belt: 10 minutes’ walk or 2 MRT stops to Singapore’s premier retail destination
• Somerset MRT and Great World MRT: The site is within walking distance of both Somerset (North-South Line) and Great World (Thomson-East Coast Line), providing dual MRT access — a rare premium in Singapore
• Singapore River Waterfront: The Zion Road / Kim Seng Road waterfront is one of Singapore’s most scenic riverfront promenades — popular with joggers, cyclists, and families — adding a lifestyle premium to the address
• Robertson Quay Dining and Nightlife: A 10-minute walk to Robertson Quay’s cluster of award-winning restaurants, bars, and boutique hotels — the city-fringe lifestyle that affluent buyers consistently seek
• Great World City Mall: Singapore’s newest major urban mall (2021), one MRT stop away on the Thomson-East Coast Line, with Cold Storage Premium, 50+ F&B outlets, and a 6-screen cinema

Comparable recent launches in the District 9 River Valley corridor provide strong price benchmarking:

• Canninghill Piers (2022, 99yr): Average transaction ~$3,500 psf
• The Avenir (2021, FH): Average transaction ~$3,200–$3,600 psf
• One Pearl Bank (2020, 99yr): Resale transactions ~$2,800–$3,200 psf

Key Takeaways for River Valley Green Parcel C Buyers

• Dual MRT Access: Somerset MRT (NSL) and Great World MRT (TEL) within walking distance — one of the most connected residential addresses in CCR
• Singapore River Views: Units on higher floors facing the river command a significant premium; register early to understand which stacks face the river versus the city
• Limited CCR New Supply: The entire River Valley Green precinct represents some of the very last CCR new launch supply from GLS before the focus shifts to reserve list white sites. Once these 3 parcels are sold, no equivalent CCR GLS sites are planned in the near term.
• ABSD Considerations for Investors: At 20% ABSD for a Singaporean citizen’s second property (and 60% for foreigners), CCR purchases require careful financial planning. The target buyer is typically: first-home Singaporean citizen (1% ABSD only), decoupled couple buying in one name, or family trust structure.
• Longer Timeline to VVIP: As Parcel C tender is only in April 2026, the earliest VVIP preview is Q1–Q2 2027. Buyers should plan for a wait of 12–18 months between registration and key collection (~2030–2031 estimated TOP).

River Valley Green Parcel C vs Parcels A & B

Each parcel offers a slightly different value proposition:

• Parcel A (Promenade Peak): Northernmost parcel, closest to Great World MRT. Positioned as the most transit-oriented of the three. Expected to prioritise 1–3 bedroom layouts for professionals and investors.
• Parcel B (Zyon Grand): Middle parcel. Balanced mix of city and river-facing units. Most diverse unit mix including larger 3-5 bedroom family formats.
• Parcel C: Southernmost parcel. Potentially most river-oriented frontage. Expected to command the highest average PSF of the three given the sequential escalation in land bids as each tender confirms developer conviction in the precinct.
