SINGAPORE: A consortium led by Frasers Property, Sekisui House and CSC Land Group (Singapore) has submitted a top bid of S$491.5 million in a hotly contested tender exercise for the first residential site in Turf City along Dunearn Road.

A total of nine bids were submitted by developers jostling for first-mover advantage in Turf City, which is among key new housing areas in more central locations identified in the Draft Master Plan 2025, and will bring 15,000 to 20,000 new public and private homes to the prime Bukit Timah area.
