Why this matters
Rare freehold B1 on the city fringe
Most new industrial launches today are leasehold. Generations @ Tannery redevelops the former City Industrial Building at 71 Tannery Lane into a 12-storey B1 ramp-up asset with freehold tenure — a combination that is increasingly hard to replace in central Singapore.
For owner-occupiers, it supports clean/light production, logistics, creative studios, and ancillary office use. For investors, freehold industrial avoids lease decay, with rental demand underpinned by limited upcoming B1 supply in mature districts.
Freehold security
No lease decay — hold, operate, or pass down across generations.
Ramp-up to 5th storey
Direct vehicular access for efficient loading and modern logistics workflows.
City-fringe address
~5-min walk to Mattar MRT (DTL); quick access to CTE, PIE and KPE.
Foreigners welcome
No residential ABSD — subject to industrial ownership rules and financing policies.

Q4 2025 saw fewer transactions by count, but higher transaction values — suggesting buyers are paying up for quality, freehold, and well-located B1 stock. District 13 remains a proven rental cluster for businesses.

Industrial SSD applies if sold within 3 years: 15% (year 1), 10% (year 2), 5% (year 3) for properties bought on or after 12 Jan 2013.
Financing
Industrial mortgages differ from residential — loan tenure, LTV, and TDSR rules vary. Speak to a banker early if you plan to leverage.
Company vs personal
Many investors buy via a Singapore-incorporated company. Structure affects tax, GST, and succession — consult your accountant and lawyer.

Tony’s Take — Industrial
“Freehold B1 on the city fringe is genuinely scarce — especially with ramp-up access and Mattar MRT walkability. Worth a look if you're building a business base, holding for rental yield, or planning a legacy asset outside residential ABSD rules.”
