An exclusive private preview of 8 St Thomas, held over the past weekend in Singapore and Hong Kong, was well-received by interested buyers. More than 20 units were sold with prices averaging well above S$3,000psf.
“We are heartened by the positive response of 8 St Thomas in both Singapore and Hong Kong. The successful preview of 8 St Thomas has demonstrated that premium freehold quality developments in prime District 9 continue to be much sought after by discerning buyers,” said Mr Ng Chee Seng, CEO of BSEL.

Ms May Tan, Head of Residential Projects at CBRE, the appointed marketing agent for 8 St Thomas, commented “Compared to recent market transactions and land bids under the government land sales program and collective sales transactions in prime districts 9 and 10, 8 St Thomas presents a sound value proposition for both owner-occupiers and investors. With one- and two-bedders priced from $1.42 million and $1.78 million respectively, savvy prospective buyers will find 8 St Thomas palatable for a premier freehold project located in a prestigious area.”
8 St Thomas is a highly-anticipated brand new freehold luxury project with only 250 exclusive units in the heart of District 9, Orchard Road.
With sprawling lush land size of almost one hectare and full condominium facilities, home-owners can select from a range of one- to four- bedroom units, four-bedroom dual-key units and penthouses, starting from an area of 441 sq ft up to 2,659 sq ft.

Each home comes with exclusively selected designer fittings and finishes to provide all the comforts of urban living.
Every unit is fitted with a home automation system that controls access to the unit, lights and air-conditioners. Designed to be an eco-paradise, homes at 8 St Thomas include energy and water efficient fittings, as well as green features such as green lots for charging electric cars. 8 St Thomas has been awarded the Building Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark Gold.
