A shipyard at 1 Benoi Road is up for sale via an expression of interest (EOI) exercise at a guide price of $11.3 million. Huttons Asia Pte Ltd is the exclusive marketing agency.
The subject property has a land area of over 500,000 sq ft with waterfront access. It comprises a 2-storey office block with a single-storey annex office, 3 blocks of single-storey workshops, mould loft building with shelter and incoming switch room, lifting store and container, hydraulic & diving workshop, winch shed, safety office/canteen/toilet block, heavy load storage area, fabrication workshop, open metal work fabrication workshop, gas and diesel storage area, guard house with store and store shelter, substation, slipway and wharf. The property is suitable for shipbuilding, ship or vessel repair and maintenance.
1 Benoi Road is located at the south-eastern junction of Benoi Road and Pioneer Road, within Jurong Industrial Estate and approximately 24.0 km from the City Centre. Towards the north-east are housing estates such as Jurong East/West, Bukit Batok, Boon Lay Gardens, etc. which provide convenient sources of labour supply. The nearby Ayer Rajah Expressway and Pan-Island Expressway facilitate access to other parts of the island. The Joo Koon MRT station is within close proximity to the property.
Isabel It, Associate Division Director of Huttons Asia Pte Ltd commented that, “The subject plot is regular in shape with a corner frontage of about 255.0 m on to Benoi Road and Pioneer Road and an average plot depth of about 213.0 m. Abutting the eastern boundary of the subject land is a waterfront shoreline length of about 230.0 m. The land is generally at access road level with a flat contour.”
“Based on caveats, the last known sale in Benoi for similar usage was a 328,105 sq ft plot at 5 Benoi Road in Dec 2020. Earlier in Feb 2023, ST Engineering acquired an approximately 1.5 million sq ft plot and assets of an existing shipyard at 55 Gul Road for $95 million. This property is suitable for companies looking to expand their business as such a big plot of land for vessel building or maintenance usages is rarely available for sale,” concludes Lee Sze Teck, Senior Director of Research at Huttons Asia Pte Ltd.
The sale is subject to approval from relevant authorities. The expression of interest (EOI) will close on 27 April Thursday 3pm.
