Without question, the west coast has a vibe of its own. A sense of excitement, freedom; a buzzing undercurrent of work and play. So the government’s recent release of a 16, 378 sq m land site on West Coast Vale could potentially mean an even more vibrant district in as soon as half a decade’s time.

The plot of land released for sale is under the government’s reserve list, which also means the sale will only go through if the bids meet the minimum set by the government. With its prime location near the Ayer Rajah Expressway and West Coast Highway, and schools such as Nan Hua Primary School, The Japanese School and Commonwealth Secondary School, the area is ripe for a new residential condominium or strata landed housing project.
The neighbouring Parc Riveria may be a good gauge of the potential this new site holds. The land which Parc Riveria stands on was acquired only last year and another private condominium nearby is The Trilinq.
The government has been more cautious of late with the release of land for sale under the government land sales programme as the market is becoming more saturated. What may hold developers back from bidding for this site is its distance from MRT stations and other amenities. It may however mean quieter and more exclusive environments which young couples or families looking for a property near schools in its vicinity.
