(Photo: Colliers International)<br \/>\nUndeterred by the government\u2019s property cooling measures, two freehold condos in District 9 near the Orchard Road shopping district are making another try at an en bloc sale.<br \/>\nGrange Heights along St. Thomas Walk is being offered for sale for $820 million, while Cairnhill Astoria in Cairnhill Rise is priced at $196 million, revealed Colliers International.<br \/>\nMore: Developers\u2019 En Bloc Appetite Diminishing: RHB<br \/>\nAfter factoring in the 10 percent bonus balcony gross floor area (GFA), the reserve price for Grange Heights translates to a land rate of $1,948 psf per plot ratio (psf ppr). No development charge is payable for the approximately 136,676 sq ft site.<br \/>\nThis is the second attempt by the owners of Grange Heights at a collective sale.<br \/>\nDepending on the size of their property, each owner stands to receive between $2.35 million and $10.762 million from the development\u2019s successful sale.<br \/>\nFor Cairnhill Rise, the $196 million reserve price \u2013 which was unchanged from its original tender price when it entered the market on 17 May \u2013 works out to a land rate of $1,933 psf ppr, after taking into account the 10 percent bonus balcony area and a development charge of about $33.903 million.<br \/>\nIf the sale proves to be a success, each owner could receive between $2.275 million and $14.261 million, depending on the size of their property.<br \/>\nColliers noted that Grange Heights could be redeveloped to yield 388 new units averaging 1,033 sq ft each, while Cairnhill Astoria could offer about 150 new units averaging 753 sq ft, subject to the approval of relevant authorities.<br \/>\n\u201cThe development is ageing and the owners are keen to sell the property,\u201d said Paul Kwek, vice-chairman of the Cairnhill Astoria collective sale committee.<br \/>\n\u201cWe understand that the environment has become a lot more uncertain following the introduction of new cooling measures in July. The owners are mindful of the cautious market sentiment and may be more realistic in their pricing expectation.\u201d<br \/>\nThe tender exercises for Cairnhill Astoria and Grange Heights will close on 17 October and 29 October respectively.<br \/>\nMore:\u00a0Understanding The En Bloc Process (August 2018)<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nRomesh Navaratnarajah, Senior Editor at PropertyGuru, edited this story.
