The Robertson Opus: A Rare 999-Year Gem in Prime District 9

The Robertson Opus: A Rare 999-Year Gem in Prime District 9

Over the weekend of July 5–6, The Robertson Opus drew more than 3,000 visitors during its first preview — a strong show of interest for what is shaping up to be one of 2025’s most anticipated Core Central Region (CCR) launches.

Jointly developed by Frasers Property and Sekisui House, this 999-year leasehold project at Robertson Quay stands out not only for its premium location but also for its unique value proposition: the only 999-year residential launch in District 9 this year.

With prices starting from $3,150 psf, The Robertson Opus offers a compelling alternative to other CCR launches, many of which are 99-year leasehold.


🧠 Commentary: Why This Matters

As a realtor in Singapore, here’s why The Robertson Opus is one of the most interesting plays in today’s market:

  • It's not every day we get a 999-year leasehold new launch in the heart of District 9 — a status almost equivalent to freehold in value perception.

  • The fact that it attracted over 3,000 preview visitors signals strong pent-up demand, especially from locals and PRs looking for legacy assets.

  • With many buyers pricing in the future — a strong tenant pool, excellent schools nearby, and the CBD minutes away — this is more than just a luxury residence. It's a long-term investment in liveability and scarcity.
