Artist’s impressionVela Bay is the first private residential development of Bayshore, a new neighbourhood planned on the land between Upper East Coast Road and the East Coast Parkway. This guide sets out the plans around it as the developer’s brochure describes them, with the government land sale that began it.
The Land Sale behind Vela Bay
URA offered the Bayshore Road land parcel on a 99-year lease under the Government Land Sales programme, and on 28 March 2025 announced the award of the tender to Sing-Haiyi Garnet Pte. Ltd. The site measures about 10,497 square metres. The lease of Vela Bay began on 25 June 2025, and the building plans were approved on 9 February 2026.
The site sits at the western gateway of the precinct, next to Bayshore station, with the established condominiums of Costa Del Sol, The Bayshore and Bayshore Park all within about 400 metres.
The first private homes of Bayshore.
Vela Bay opens the new Bayshore precinct, on a site URA awarded in March 2025.
A Car-Lite Seafront Precinct around Vela Bay
The developer’s brochure describes the future Bayshore Central precinct as a car-lite seafront residential community with integrated green spaces and parks along the Thomson-East Coast Line. At its heart will be a lively central street with bus-priority lanes, shops and community facilities, and the brochure marks upcoming homes, parks and medical facilities on the land around the site.
