One of District 5’s most anticipated private residential launches of 2026 is set to open for sales on 16 May 2026. Hudson Place Residences, a 327-unit 99-year leasehold development by a consortium of Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, CYZ Land, and Jianan Capital, previewed over the May Day long weekend (1–3 May 2026), drawing more than 3,500 visitors to its Media Walk sales gallery. Prices start from above S$2,200 per square foot — above-market for District 5 but consistent with the premium one-north address and limited supply of new private residential launches in the Queenstown planning area.

Project Overview: New York Meets One-North
Hudson Place Residences occupies a site at Media Walk in the heart of one-north, Singapore’s technology and biomedical cluster. The development takes a New York residential aesthetic — high ceilings, industrial-chic design language, and full-height glazing — applied to a Singapore-sized footprint. Unit types span one-bedroom to four-bedroom configurations, catering to professional singles and families attracted by proximity to the one-north business park and its growing roster of multinational tenants.
The project includes ground-floor retail, continuing the mixed-use trend that has characterised new residential launches in Queenstown and one-north. Retail amenities at the base will complement the Rochester Park dining enclave and established amenities of Buona Vista (The Star Vista, Holland Village within 10 minutes).
Pricing Context: Where Does S$2,200 psf Sit in 2026?
The indicative S$2,200+ psf launch average places Hudson Place Residences at the premium end of District 5 new launches. For context, the developers’ adjacent project, Bloomsbury Residences (launched April 2025), moved at a median around S$2,080 psf and is approximately 85% sold. ELTA at Clementi Avenue 1 (early 2026) achieved a median around S$2,180 psf. Faber Residence (D05, GuocoLand consortium, 399 units) was priced from around S$2,190 psf at its 2025 launch. Hudson Place’s premium reflects both the one-north workplace proximity premium and the retail component. D05 supply of new private residential units is highly constrained after the current pipeline, with no new D05 GLS sites on the 1H 2026 Confirmed List.
Developer Track Record and Consortium
The four-party consortium brings together Qingjian Realty — a Singapore developer with an established track record in private residential and executive condominium projects — and Forsea Holdings, its joint venture partner on the adjacent Bloomsbury Residences. CYZ Land and Jianan Capital add institutional capital to the consortium. The successful completion and strong take-up at Bloomsbury Residences gives the consortium a positive reference in the immediate neighbourhood, providing buyer confidence ahead of the sales launch.
What This Means for Buyers
For owner-occupiers, the one-north address is compelling if your employer is located in the cluster — the 10–15 minute walk to the science and biomedical campuses eliminates a daily commute. The dual MRT connectivity (Buona Vista and one-north on the Circle Line, plus Buona Vista on the East-West Line) gives access to the CBD in under 20 minutes. For investors, the rental thesis is driven by the one-north tenant pool: expatriate professionals on employment passes who receive housing allowances and prefer proximity to their workplace. Comparable units in Bloomsbury Residences are currently asking S$4,500–S$5,500 per month for two-bedroom units, implying gross rental yields of approximately 3.5%–4.0% at Hudson Place’s S$1.4M+ 2BR pricing.
Stamp Duty Reminder
Buyers should budget for Buyer’s Stamp Duty (BSD) on top of the purchase price. BSD on a S$1.5 million unit is approximately S$44,600. Singapore Citizens buying a second property will additionally face ABSD of 20% (S$300,000 on a S$1.5M unit), significantly affecting investment economics. See our ABSD Singapore 2026 guide and BSD guide for full rate tables and worked calculations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can foreigners buy Hudson Place Residences?
Yes. As a private condominium (not an HDB flat or EC), Hudson Place Residences is open to foreigners and entities, subject to the Residential Property Act. However, foreigners pay ABSD of 60% of the purchase price on any Singapore residential property — on a S$1.5M unit, that is S$900,000 in ABSD. See our Foreigner Property Buyer Singapore 2026 guide for the full analysis, including FTA exemptions for certain nationalities.
How does Hudson Place differ from Bloomsbury Residences?
Both projects share the same developer consortium (Qingjian × Forsea) and are located at one-north, but they are distinct developments on different land parcels. Bloomsbury Residences launched April 2025 and is approximately 85% sold as at May 2026. Hudson Place is a new development with a New York-inspired design brief, slightly different unit mix, and its own pricing (S$2,200+ psf vs Bloomsbury’s median around S$2,080 psf at launch). Buyers comparing the two should assess remaining unit types in Bloomsbury against the fresh selection at Hudson Place.
Are grants available for a Hudson Place purchase?
As a private condo, Hudson Place Residences is not eligible for CPF Housing Grants (which apply to HDB purchases) or the Enhanced Housing Grant. Buyers may use CPF OA savings towards the purchase under CPF’s property purchase rules, subject to the Valuation Limit and Withdrawal Limit conditions. First-time buyers who are Singapore Citizens or PRs do not face ABSD on their first property, which materially reduces the upfront cost relative to second-property purchasers.
What is the expected TOP for Hudson Place Residences?
The expected Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) date has not been officially confirmed as at 14 May 2026. Based on typical construction timelines for a project of this scale (approximately 3–4 years from site award to TOP), a reasonable estimate would be 2028–2029. Buyers should confirm the expected VP and legal completion dates in the Sale and Purchase Agreement and budget for progress payment instalments under the standard progressive payment schedule.
What is the sales launch process on 16 May 2026?
The official sales launch on 16 May 2026 is an e-application exercise. Eligible buyers register their interest and select units in advance. On launch day, the developer runs a balloting process, with first-timer Singapore Citizens typically given priority in the first round. Buyers need their Option to Purchase (OTP) funds ready — typically a booking fee of 5% of the purchase price — and financing pre-approved. See our OTP guide for the full process from booking to exercise.
