Statutory guidance derived directly from URA Envelope Control guidelines, Singapore Land Authority (SLA), and the Residential Property Act.
What is URA Envelope Control for landed houses in Singapore?
Introduced by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), Envelope Control dictates the allowable building volume, storey height, and roof profile of landed houses based on allowable building height envelopes (e.g. 12 meters for 2-storey or 15.5 meters for 3-storey) rather than rigid micro-setbacks, giving architects greater creative flexibility.
How many Good Class Bungalow (GCB) Areas are gazetted in Singapore?
There are strictly 39 gazetted Good Class Bungalow Areas in Singapore, primarily located in prime residential districts 10, 11, 20, 21, and 23 (such as Nassim Road, Cluny Hill, Dalvey Estate, Queen Astrid Park, and Chestnut Avenue). GCBs require a minimum plot size of 1,400 square meters (15,070 sqft) and a maximum site coverage of 35%.
Can foreigners buy landed property in Singapore?
Under the Residential Property Act (RPA), foreigners (including Permanent Residents) must obtain prior approval from the Land Dealings Approval Unit (LDAU) of the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) before purchasing landed residential property on the Singapore mainland. Foreigners are freely permitted to acquire detached seafront bungalows in Sentosa Cove without LDAU restrictions.
