The Future Awaits: Tampines URA Masterplan Insights

Tampines is being reshaped under the URA Master Plan with a clear tilt toward denser, better-connected precincts and expanded green networks. New community nodes and upgraded transport links aim to knit residential pockets more tightly to malls, schools and parks. For you that means easier daily travel, shorter school runs and a steadily improving lifestyle catchment that supports both family living and rental demand.

Major moves in the plan support mixed-use intensification around MRT nodes and town hubs. That strategy tends to lift land values near stations and amenities. Given Tampines’ position as a regional centre, the upgrades signal continued interest from developers and buyers rather than short-term change.

Strategic Development Plans and Their Implications

Higher plot ratios and targeted densification around the Downtown and East-West Line nodes will create more housing supply near transit. Rivelle’s site already benefits from a plot ratio of 2.5 on its 22,480.86 sqm (241,982 sqft) land parcel, yielding about 56,202 sqm of developable gross floor area. Spread across ~560 units, that translates to an average of roughly 100 sqm (~1,080 sqft) per unit—comfortably sized for family-focused 3–4 bedroom layouts.

Land value compression around these upgraded precincts places upward pressure on launch prices. Sim Lian’s winning bid of S$465 million (about S$768 psf ppr) implies notable land-cost absorption—roughly S$830,000 per unit on a simple division basis. For you as a buyer, that may mean premium pricing at launch but also stronger capital support if the URA-led enhancements drive sustained demand.
