As Singapore’s prime property market anticipates significant additions to its luxury residential portfolio in 2025, Robertson Opus emerges as a standout development, distinguished by its rare 999-year leasehold status in the coveted Core Central Region (CCR). Located on Unity Street in District 9, this mixed-use condominium by Frasers Property and Sekisui House is positioned within walking distance of Fort Canning and Clarke Quay MRT stations, offering seamless connectivity to Singapore’s business and entertainment hubs.
Robertson Opus redefines Singapore luxury with its rare 999-year leasehold in District 9’s prime riverfront location.
The development, scheduled for launch on July 19, 2025, will encompass 348 luxury residences distributed across five 10-storey towers. With a total site area of 9,103 square meters and a gross floor area of 30,664 square meters, Robertson Opus will feature 26,371 square meters of residential space complemented by 4,293 square meters of retail amenities. Completion is anticipated between 2029 and 2030, coinciding with the government’s ongoing rejuvenation plans for the Singapore River precinct.
Designed by ADDP Architects, Robertson Opus preserves the iconic cascading roof from the original Robertson Walk, creating a harmonious blend of heritage elements with contemporary architectural innovation. While technically a leasehold property, the 999-year tenure provides buyers with virtually the same property appreciation benefits as freehold structures. The development offers nearly 50 curated facilities, including multiple landscaped sky terraces, open courtyards, pools, gyms, and entertainment lounges, establishing a premium living environment for discerning residents.
The project’s 999-year tenure, effectively equivalent to freehold status, represents a significant advantage in Singapore’s property market, particularly within the CCR where such extended leases are increasingly scarce. This tenure structure, combined with the development’s prime location adjacent to Robertson Quay, Clarke Quay, and Orchard Road, positions Robertson Opus as an attractive proposition for both homeowners and investors. Investors should note that units facing the central courtyard may experience increased noise levels, although the developers have maintained the original courtyard design as a signature feature. Each luxury residence comes with an investment entry point of 10million per unit, reflecting the premium positioning of this development.
Floor-to-ceiling windows throughout each residence frame lush riverside and city views, while the mixed-use concept incorporates essential ground-level amenities, including grocery stores and restaurants. Robertson Opus aims to redefine luxury living in Singapore’s river district, offering an exclusive, low-density residential experience with direct integration to the vibrant riverfront lifestyle of Robertson Quay.
