SINGAPORE: Two innovative cover areas in Sembawang and Woodlands may be developed to provide about 14, 000 new houses, including 12, 000 people cover cottages.

At the Housing and Development Board ( HDB) awards ceremony on Tuesday ( October 22 ), Minister for National Development Desmond Lee revealed the plans for Sembawang North and Woodlands North Coast.

The first Build-to-Order ( BTO ) projects in these two housing areas will be launched in 2025, with the rest to follow progressively, HDB said in its press release on Tuesday. &nbsp,

This will provide a sizable supply of affordable housing for Singaporeans looking to live in the north, mainly for families who want to stay close to their parents for assistance and joint care, it added.

According to HDB, the two new housing regions will expand the great geographical distribution of public housing in order to meet Singaporeans ‘ diverse needs.

SEMBAWANG NORTH

Sembawang North will be a 53ha page within the city of Sembawang. It will offer about 10, 000 cover units- 8, 000 BTO flats and 2, 000 secret housing units when thoroughly developed, said HDB.

Given its role as the British Naval Center in the 1920s and subsequent Sembawang Shipyard, the housing development may reflect the city’s maritime heritage and colonial architecture.

The BTO initiatives will incorporate design elements like courtyard designs, pitched roofs, and striking geometric designs, taking inspiration from imperial bungalows.

Nautical factors will also be incorporated into Sembawang North” to build community areas that reflect the unique history of the area,” according to HDB.

” The houses in Sembawang North will be well-served by a complete range of features, ensuring a superior living environment for both current and upcoming inhabitants of Sembawang. &nbsp,

” To provide greater ease and convenience for people, there are plans to develop fresh commercial services, care providers, schools, and places of worship,” HDB said.

Additionally, there will be additional clean and outdoor areas that will provide residents with leisure opportunities.
