After nearly two decades of collective sale attempts, the sprawling Thomson View estate — a 5-hectare precinct nestled beside Upper Thomson MRT Station — has finally been cleared for a spectacular rebirth. The site, originally built in 1975 with 200 apartments, 54 townhouses and a single shop unit, saw four failed en bloc attempts over 17 years before owners succeeded on the fifth try. On 25 November 2024, the land was sold for S$810 million to a powerful joint venture between UOL Group, Singapore Land (SingLand) and CapitaLand Development (CLD), translating to a land rate of S$1,178 psf per plot ratio. The trio of developers now plans to replace the ageing estate with a fresh 1,240-unit condominium — one of the most anticipated new launches in District 20 for 2026.
What makes Thomson View En Bloc so compelling isn’t just its size or prime location. It sits directly beside Upper Thomson MRT Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, placing residents within minutes of the city centre, the lush MacRitchie Reservoir Park, and the prestigious Singapore Island Country Club. The surrounding neighbourhood is a sought-after residential belt of landed homes, established schools, and verdant green corridors. For homebuyers and investors alike, this redevelopment represents a rare opportunity to own a brand-new condo in a mature, well-connected enclave that rarely sees fresh supply.
Project Essentials — Thomson View Condominium
Below are the key details of the upcoming development, drawn directly from the en bloc sale and the developers’ preliminary plans. Note that unit mix and exact specifications may be refined as the project moves toward launch.
Location & Neighbourhood
Few sites in Singapore offer the combination of immediate MRT access, lush greenery, and landed-home prestige that Thomson View commands. The new development will rise directly beside Upper Thomson MRT Station (TE8), putting the entire Thomson-East Coast Line at residents’ doorstep. A short train ride connects you to Orchard, Marina Bay, and the upcoming Bayshore precinct.
Surrounded by landed housing estates, the area exudes a quiet, resort-like character while remaining minutes from urban conveniences. MacRitchie Reservoir Park — with its treetop walk, running trails, and kayaking — is within walking distance. The Singapore Island Country Club offers golf, tennis, and fine dining for members. Families will appreciate being within 1 km of the popular Ai Tong School, alongside other reputable schools such as CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls’ School and Catholic High School.
Upper Thomson Road itself is a vibrant stretch lined with cafes, restaurants, and retail — from the iconic Roti Prata House to the newly revamped Thomson Plaza. The upcoming development will also benefit from the broader transformation of the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio area, including the new Bishan Street 13 and Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1 GLS sites.

The Long Road to En Bloc — Persistence Pays Off
The story of Thomson View’s collective sale is one of remarkable perseverance. Over a span of 17 years, the estate’s owners mounted four separate en bloc attempts — each falling short of the required consensus or acceptable price. It was only on the fifth attempt, in late 2024, that the stars aligned. The sale price of S$810 million represented a significant premium over earlier offers, reflecting both the surging land values in District 20 and the strategic importance of the Upper Thomson MRT node.
For the 254 households — a mix of apartment dwellers, townhouse residents and the sole shopkeeper — the successful sale marked the end of a long chapter and the beginning of a new one. Many owners had held on for years, believing in the site’s potential. Their patience was rewarded with a land rate of S$1,178 psf per plot ratio, one of the highest ever achieved for a 99-year leasehold en bloc in the area.
The winning consortium — UOL, SingLand and CLD — brings together three of Singapore’s most respected developers. UOL and SingLand have a track record of iconic projects like Pan Pacific Orchard and The Tre Ver, while CapitaLand Development adds its vast experience in large-scale integrated
