What is Hudson Place Residences?

Sources: URA, 13 March 2025 (tender award, site area, 99-year lease, zoning); EdgeProp project page (developer entity, addresses, lease start, TOP, architect); EdgeProp, 27 April 2026 (towers, retail space, preview date); Stacked Homes preview (sales start date); distance measured by SG Properties from OneMap coordinates.

What about the other "Hudson Place Residences"? Older pages on this site gave conflicting facts under the same name, including a 60-unit project on Upper Serangoon Road and a Keppel Land project at one-north. We found no primary source for either. The only Hudson Place Residences we could verify is this one at Media Circle; OneMap lists 18 and 20 Media Circle as "Hudson Place Residences (U/C)".

Who won the Media Circle site, and at what price?

URA awarded Media Circle (Parcel A) to the highest tenderer, CNQC Realty (Bloomsbury) Pte Ltd, Forsea Residence Pte Ltd and Hoovasun Holding Pte Ltd, for S$315 million. The site is zoned residential with commercial use on the first storey, with a maximum gross floor area of 28,230 sq m. The tender, which closed on 4 March 2025, drew three bids (EdgeProp, 4 March 2025).

We checked the arithmetic: URA gives S$11,158.34 per sq m of floor area, which is about S$1,037 psf per plot ratio (S$11,158.34 ÷ 10.764), matching EdgeProp's figure. EdgeProp reported that the site could yield about 325 homes; the final design has 327.

The same developers are behind Bloomsbury Residences, a 358-unit project on the neighbouring Media Circle plot, bought in January 2024 at S$1,191 psf ppr (EdgeProp, 4 March 2025).

What unit types does Hudson Place Residences have?

There are no one-bedroom units. EdgeProp's project page lists this mix, which adds up to 327:

Facilities named by the developer at preview include a 50 m lap pool, a social pool, two clubhouses, a gym, steam rooms, a tennis court, a rooftop lounge and a barbecue pavilion (EdgeProp, 27 April 2026). Stacked Homes reports that the ground-floor shops will be managed by the condo's management corporation, with rental income going towards running costs.

How much did Hudson Place Residences launch at?

We checked the arithmetic: 201 ÷ 327 is 61.5%, and 68.5% of 327 is about 224 units. At the preview prices, a 646 sq ft 2-bedroom at S$1.4 million works out to about S$2,167 psf, a 893 sq ft 3-bedroom at S$2 million to about S$2,240 psf, and a 1,152 sq ft 4-bedroom at S$2.7 million to about S$2,344 psf. These are the lowest quoted prices, not averages. The S$2,458 psf launch-weekend average is about 19% to 25% above our estimated break-even of S$1,967–2,067 psf, based on the S$1,037 psf ppr land price (see our land-cost break-even table).

EdgeProp reported that about 99% of launch-weekend buyers were Singaporeans and permanent residents, that 65% bought two-bedroom units, and that the 893 sq ft three-bedroom type sold out. For comparison, EdgeProp said the same day that Bloomsbury Residences was about 85% sold at an average S$2,525 psf.

How far is Hudson Place Residences from the MRT?

It is not within easy walking distance of a station. Using OneMap coordinates, we measured about 1.1 km in a straight line from 18 Media Circle to one-north station (CC23) and about 1.2 km to Kent Ridge station (CC24), both on the Circle Line. Walking routes are longer than straight-line distances, so check OneMap for your own route. Stacked Homes reports that the developer will run a shuttle to one-north MRT, Buona Vista MRT and the National University of Singapore for the first year after completion.

Stacked Homes also notes that there is no primary school within 1 km, while Tanglin Trust School is nearby.

Who might Hudson Place Residences suit?

This is a summary of trade-offs, not a recommendation. What is distinctive: the site sits inside the one-north business park, near Fusionopolis, Galaxis and The Star Vista (EdgeProp, 27 April 2026), it has shops on the ground floor, and there is no one-bedroom stock, so the smallest home is a 646 sq ft two-bedder. The trade-offs: no MRT station within an easy walk, no primary school within 1 km, and entry prices above S$2,200 psf on a lease that started in June 2025. Completion is not expected until 2029. Our guides on lease decay and ABSD explain how lease length and stamp duties affect a purchase. Our new launches under S$1.5 million page compares Hudson Place's entry prices with other 2026 launches.

Correction

30 September 2026: An earlier version of this page said Hudson Place Residences had about 325 units, would be completed in 2028, had one- to four-bedroom units from about 450 sq ft, and was about 700 m or a nine-minute walk from one-north MRT. It has 327 units, no one-bedroom units, and an expected TOP of Q3 2029; one-north station is about 1.1 km away in a straight line. It named only Qingjian Realty and Forsea as developers; the joint venture also includes CYZ Land and Jianan Capital. Unsupported claims about Bloomsbury Residences' sales, nearby schools and restaurants, rental yields and rental demand were removed, as was an offer of a paid "full report".
