With such close proximity to these key areas, Gems Ville offers not only the convenience for home stay, but also a great opportunity for investors. This is so because a huge tenant pool will coming from the Paya Lebar Quarters Grade A offices, Changi Business Park, CBD, and MBFC. 

As for upside potential, Gems Ville is situated right in the heart of Geylang, where it sits on a plot ratio of 2.8. This means buildings in this area can potential be built up to 36 storeys tall. However the current height restriction is due to the nearby Paya Lebar Airbase. Paya Lebar Airbase is set to shift in the future from 2030 onwards. This will lift the height restriction in this region of Geylang and further increase the value of District 14 homes. 

Paya Lebar Airport was Singapore’s former international airport terminal. First opened up in 1955, it has cutting-edge amenities as well as was among Asia’s finest airport terminal back then. Til this existing date, the passenger terminal building and control tower can be seen. At that time, the airport terminal runway was huge enough to fit large size jets. It was additionally among Asia’s lengthiest runway. Many history were made over in this airport terminal, one of which was the birth place of Singapore’s iconic airliner in 1971, SIA. After the new opening of Changi Flight terminal in 1981, it has become the station of the Republic of Singapore Airforce. Paya Lebar Airbase is readied to relocate starting from 2030s onwards. This is in line with the govt’s news plan regarding to the moving of Singapore port functions that is currently found throughout Tanjong Pagar, Keppel location, Brani, and Pasir Panjang. The leases for the port will certainly end from 2027, and will definitely be shifted over to Tuas.

Relocation of Paya Lebar Airbase will free substantial plots of land the area is an estimated 5 times the dimension of Toa Payoh Neighbourhood. There will be over 800 hectare of acreage being free up, and also will certainly even remove any height regulation around the district where Gems Ville is located at. The lifting of the height limitation will certainly see an entire brand-new city skyline change around the airbase. Some instances of locations impacted positively will be areas in district 14. The plot ratio that is currently discovered in locations for example Geylang is 2.8. Rightfully with this current plot ratio, properties such as Gems Ville can be constructed up to 36 levels. But with the present Paya Lebar Airbase regulation, a large part of the properties are only build with a max storey of 8 levels. Therefore with the moving of Paya Lebar Airbase, we will most definitely see transformations in the future city skyline that are currently affected by the current height limitation.

The possibilities regarding redevelopment of Paya Lebar Airbase is massive and most likely for the vision of the next generation of new leaders. With the current govt strategy in the decentralisation of business districts currently in effect, the plot of land will most likely be massive enough to integrate a commercial center to create jobs for future locals in the location. Gems Ville will benefit to all these upside potential. Concepts to redeveloped this new community is still open as well as will not be finalised so soon. This brand-new township will definitely be a new generation idea with integration of different commercial, workplace, shops, educational institutions, smart job centres, residential, as well as unlimited opportunities. An all new generation of communities awaits that will likely have better integration and also implementation of a live, work, play, and move community.

Gems Ville apartment is in close proximity to the Kallang Basin. Kallang Basin offers an opportunity for the government to develop even more. Under the URA Urban Redevelopment strategy, communities and also vibrancy will be introduced into these vicinity by stages. Over in the vicinities of the existing Kallang Industrial Estate, there will likely be plans to transform the neighbourhood right into a mixed-use precinct with The Kallang River that flows just next to it. We will probably undergo some instances of plans for redevelopment of the Kallang district that will definitely bring benefits and market value to properties located in or near these region such as Gems Ville.
