District 10, comprising Bukit Timah, Holland Village, and Tanglin, is a name synonymous with affluence and prestige in Singapore.
Holland Village
Holland Village, established by Singapore's Dutch community in the early 1900s, was once a bustling neighborhood that housed British Army personnel and their families. With its numerous plantations, colonial estates, and nurseries, the area still retains a rich European heritage that is reflected in its charming shophouses and low-rise buildings.
The district was named after English architect Hugh Holland, but was affectionately known as hue hng au, which translates to "behind the flower garden" in the Hokkien dialect, thanks to its proximity to the Singapore Botanic Gardens.
Today, Holland Village is renowned as a creative hub that attracts local artists, musicians, and entrepreneurs. Lorong Mambong, the main thoroughfare, exudes a subtle European charm and is lined with open-air cafes, restaurants, and lifestyle destinations that are beloved by both residents and visitors. As an award-winning writer, it is my privilege to share the enchantment of Holland Village with readers worldwide.
The Price Gap between CCR and OCR Is Narrowing.
Main Points Summarized:
The price gap between Core Central Region (CCR) and Rest of Central Region (RCR) properties in Singapore is narrowing, leading to increased interest in CCR properties. The average price per square foot (psf) for CCR properties decreased by 2.6% in Q1 2021, while RCR properties saw an increase of 2.2%. This trend is attributed to factors such as the pandemic-induced work-from-home arrangements, which have made homeowners less reliant on being located in the city center.
Industry experts predict that the demand for CCR properties is likely to remain steady, driven by factors such as limited land supply in prime locations and the allure of luxury amenities. However, they caution that the price gap between CCR and RCR properties may not continue to narrow indefinitely, and advise potential buyers to carefully consider their options before making a purchase.
