The first home address in Mediapolis.
For two decades one-north was a place you worked, not a place you lived. Mediapolis, Fusionopolis, Biopolis and the surrounding business-park cluster filled with tech and biomed employers, but the homes inside the precinct were almost non-existent. Bloomsbury Residences is the project that changed that — positioned as the first private home address inside Mediapolis itself.
It launched on 12 April 2025 with 358 units across three towers of 14–23 storeys, plus about 4,304 sq ft of ground-floor retail, on Media Circle. The public preview over the Hari Raya weekend on 29 March drew roughly 2,500 visitors. Launch weekend booked 90 of 358 units — 25.1% — at an average of S$2,474 psf. That was a measured start, not a sell-out, but it set the marker for the precinct.
What followed validated the thesis: around 80% by late March 2026, about 85% by early May, about 88% by late May 2026, and roughly 90% by early July 2026 — with momentum, not a fixed single point; see the live availability panel for the exact current balance. Caveats now average about S$2,509 psf, modestly above the launch average.
The consortium is Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, ZACD Group and Jianan Capital. A year after Bloomsbury, the same lead pair (Qingjian and Forsea, with different equity partners) launched Hudson Place Residences two streets away — making Media Circle the spine of the one-north residential cycle.
Launched at S$2,474 psf — caveats now ~S$2,509.
Bloomsbury launched on 12 April 2025 at an average of S$2,474 psf, booking 90 of 358 units (25.1%) over the opening weekend. The honest caveat on the current number: as of May 2026, URA caveats average about S$2,509 psf — modestly above the launch average — across a S$2,348–2,716 psf range. That is a caveat-weighted figure, so individual stacks and floors vary:
- Apr 2025 launch: S$2,474 avg, 25.1% in launch weekend (90 of 358 units)
- As of May 2026 (URA caveats): avg ~S$2,509 psf, range S$2,348–2,716
- roughly 90% sold as of mid-2026 — see the live availability panel for the exact current balance
Roughly 90% of 358 units sold as of mid-2026 (see the live availability panel for the exact current balance) at an average of ~S$2,509 psf on URA caveats; the launch weekend (12 April 2025) booked 90 (25.1%) at S$2,474 psf.

Launch PSF figures are the reported launch-window averages for each D5 comparable, with launch take-up where reported. Bloomsbury's current caveat average (~S$2,509 psf) sits modestly above its S$2,474 launch number.
2BR-led, with a small penthouse tail.
The 358-unit mix is led by two-bedroom apartments — roughly 190 units, about 53% of the project — and that is where launch demand concentrated: 2-bedders made up over 70% of launch-weekend sales. Three- and four-bedroom layouts follow, with a small tail of about eight penthouses going up to six bedrooms. Per-type counts are approximate.
| Type | Units (approx.) | Size (sqft) | From price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-Bedroom (incl. Premium / +Study) | ~190 (~53%) | 570 – 689 | from S$1.366M |
| 3-Bedroom (incl. +Study) | ~70 (~20%) | 904 – 1,098 | from S$2.166M |
| 4-Bedroom Premium + Study | ~30 | 1,173 – 1,421 | from S$2.866M |
| Penthouse (up to 6-Bed) | ~8 | — | top sale ~S$2,700 psf |

Media Circle — inside Mediapolis.
Bloomsbury sits on Media Circle, in the heart of the one-north / Mediapolis precinct within the Queenstown planning area. It is wrapped by the employment cluster it is built for — Mediapolis, Fusionopolis and Biopolis are all part of the one-north business-park ecosystem at the door.
The MRT distance is the honest tradeoff. one-north (CC23) is about 1.0 km; Buona Vista (CC22/EW21 interchange) is roughly 1.4 km, both verified on OneMap. This is a car-lite precinct, and the project runs a shuttle to both stations — useful, but it is a walk-or-shuttle arrangement, not a station-fronting condo.
For schools, New Town Primary is the one inside the 1 km Primary 1 priority radius (~0.9 km on OneMap). The green spine of one-north Park and Rochester Park's conservation-bungalow F&B are within the precinct, with Kent Ridge Park and the Southern Ridges beyond.
Work, school, walk, repeat.
The defining feature of this address is the density of employers at the door — the one-north business-park cluster — plus a primary school inside the 1 km radius and the green corridor of one-north Park and the Southern Ridges on the back fence. What it is not is a mall-on-the-doorstep address; everyday retail leans on The Star Vista, Rochester Mall and the precinct's own ground-floor strip.

The case for, the case against — and one segment we'd steer away.
Most launch pages try to be everything to every buyer. We don't think Bloomsbury is that. Here's where it genuinely shines, and where it doesn't.
First-mover in Mediapolis, demand validated.
Bloomsbury is the first private home address inside Mediapolis, and the roughly 90% sold as of mid-2026 (see the live availability panel for the exact current balance) validates that the one-north thesis has buyers. The tech and biomed employment catchment — Mediapolis, Fusionopolis, Biopolis and the wider business-park cluster — anchors a walking-distance worker base that few precincts can match.
New Town Primary sits within 1 km. And the entry maths still look reasonable: caveats average ~S$2,509 psf as of May 2026, only modestly above the S$2,474 launch average.
Car-lite, shuttle-reliant, and not cheap.
The MRT is not on the doorstep: one-north (CC23) is about 1.0 km, so this is a car-lite, shuttle-reliant address. The 25.1% booked on launch weekend was a measured start rather than a blowout. And it is a 99-year leasehold.
D5 RCR pricing isn't cheap, either. At a ~S$2,509 psf caveat average, you are paying a full one-north price for a one-north thesis — the precinct's employment depth has to do the work over the hold.
MRT-on-the-doorstep buyers and brand-name P1 seekers.
If you want an MRT on your doorstep, Bloomsbury will frustrate you — at ~1.0 km to one-north MRT, this is a walk-or-shuttle precinct, not a station-fronting condo. And if you are buying for Primary 1 priority at a top-tier brand-name school, the 1 km tier here holds New Town Primary, not one of the marquee names — Fairfield Methodist Primary sits in the 1–2 km band, outside the priority radius.
What the brochure won't tell you.
The MRT is not walking distance in the doorstep sense. one-north (CC23) is about 1.0 km and Buona Vista about 1.4 km. It is a car-lite precinct with a project shuttle to both — which helps, but you should buy this knowing it is a walk-or-shuttle arrangement, not a station-fronting condo.
The launch weekend was measured, not a blowout. 25.1% (90 of 358) booked on the 12 April 2025 opening is a steady start, not a sell-out. The project then ground upward — around 80% by late March 2026, about 85% by early May, about 88% by late May 2026, and roughly 90% by early July 2026, with momentum, not a fixed single point; see the live availability panel for the exact current balance.
The 1 km school tier is New Town Primary, not a marquee name. New Town Primary (within 1 km, ~0.9 km on OneMap) is the school inside the 1 km Primary 1 priority radius. Fairfield Methodist Primary is sometimes cited but sits in the 1–2 km band (OneMap), outside the priority tier. If brand-name P1 priority is the point of your purchase, this isn't that address.
Current PSF runs above the launch average.Caveats average about S$2,509 psf as of May 2026 — modestly above the S$2,474 launch average — across a S$2,348–2,716 psf range. D5 RCR pricing isn't cheap, and the entry today reflects a year of steady absorption rather than a launch-day discount.
TOP is a range, not a date. Completion is estimated at 2028–2029, and sources differ on the exact year within that window. As of May 2026 no firmer date is consistently confirmed, so plan around the range rather than a single handover quarter.
A few dozen units left as of mid-2026 — ask for the current balance and pricing.
We'll send the current balance-unit list, indicative pricing by stack, and any developer-side incentives still active. With just a few dozen units left as of mid-2026, availability is tight — drop us a note about the bedroom count or budget you're working with and our partner agent can pull the matching options before the showflat call.
What buyers keep asking.
- Where is Bloomsbury Residences and who is the developer? +
- Bloomsbury Residences is a 358-unit, 99-year leasehold condominium on Media Circle in District 5 — the one-north / Mediapolis precinct within the Queenstown planning area. It is developed by a consortium of Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, ZACD Group and Jianan Capital, and is positioned as the first private home address inside Mediapolis.
- How much did Bloomsbury Residences cost at launch? +
- Bloomsbury Residences launched on 12 April 2025 at an average of S$2,474 psf, selling 90 of its 358 units (25.1%) over the launch weekend. As of May 2026, URA caveats average about S$2,509 psf across a S$2,348–2,716 psf range — modestly above the launch average. Two-bedroom units started from S$1.366 million.
- How many units have sold at Bloomsbury Residences? +
- Bloomsbury Residences is roughly 90% sold as of mid-2026 — see the live availability panel on this page for the exact current balance. The trajectory shows momentum rather than a fixed point: around 80% by late March 2026, about 85% by early May, about 88% by late May 2026, and roughly 90% by early July 2026. The 25.1% booked on launch weekend (90 of 358) was a measured start that built steadily.
- What is the current average PSF at Bloomsbury Residences versus launch? +
- Bloomsbury Residences launched at an average of S$2,474 psf in April 2025. As of May 2026, URA caveats average about S$2,509 psf — modestly above the launch average — across a range of S$2,348 to S$2,716 psf. The current figure is a caveat-weighted average, not a single asking price, so individual stacks and floors vary.
- When did Bloomsbury Residences launch — and what's the difference between preview and launch? +
- Bloomsbury Residences held its public preview over the Hari Raya weekend on 29 March 2025, drawing roughly 2,500 visitors, then opened for sales bookings on 12 April 2025. The preview is the showflat-viewing window; the launch is when units can actually be booked. Quoted launch sales and PSF figures refer to the 12 April 2025 sales launch.
- What is the unit mix at Bloomsbury Residences? +
- Bloomsbury Residences has 358 units across three towers of 14–23 storeys, with about 4,304 sq ft of retail. The mix is roughly 190 two-bedroom units (~53%, 570–689 sqft), about 70 three-bedroom (904–1,098 sqft), around 30 four-bedroom Premium + Study (1,173–1,421 sqft), and about 8 penthouses up to six bedrooms. Per-type counts are approximate.
- How far is Bloomsbury Residences from an MRT station? +
- Bloomsbury Residences is about 1.0 km from one-north MRT (CC23) and roughly 1.4 km from Buona Vista MRT (CC22/EW21 interchange), with distances verified on OneMap. It sits in a car-lite precinct, and the project runs a shuttle to both stations. The MRT is not on the doorstep — this is a walk-or-shuttle arrangement, not a station-fronting condo.
- Which primary school is within 1 km of Bloomsbury Residences? +
- New Town Primary School is the school inside the 1 km Primary 1 priority radius of Bloomsbury Residences, at within 1 km (~0.9 km, verified on OneMap). Fairfield Methodist Primary is sometimes cited but sits in the 1–2 km band (OneMap), so it does not qualify for the 1 km priority tier. As of May 2026, New Town Primary is the only mainstream primary inside that tier.
- When will Bloomsbury Residences be completed (TOP)? +
- Bloomsbury Residences is estimated to reach Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) in 2028–2029. Sources differ on the exact year within that window, so we state the range rather than a single date. As of May 2026, no firmer completion date has been consistently confirmed across independent reporting.
- Who is buying at Bloomsbury Residences? +
- Buyers at Bloomsbury Residences are 88% Singaporean, and over 70% are aged 40 and above, per launch reporting. Two-bedroom units made up over 70% of launch-weekend sales — a profile that points to investor and right-sizer demand drawn by the one-north employment catchment rather than first-time owner-occupiers.
- Is Bloomsbury Residences a good investment? +
- Whether Bloomsbury Residences works as an investment depends on the one-north thesis: it is the first-mover home address in Mediapolis, roughly 90% sold as of mid-2026 (see the live availability panel for the exact current balance) validates demand, and the tech and biomed employment catchment anchors tenant depth. As of May 2026, caveats (~S$2,509 psf) sit just above the S$2,474 launch average. The honest counts against it are the ~1.0 km MRT distance and 99-year leasehold.
- How does Bloomsbury Residences compare to Hudson Place Residences? +
- Bloomsbury Residences and Hudson Place Residences share the same precinct and lead developers (Qingjian Realty + Forsea Holdings, with different equity partners) on Media Circle, launched about thirteen months apart. Bloomsbury opened April 2025 at S$2,474 psf and cleared 25.1% (90 of 358) in its launch weekend, reaching roughly 90% sold by mid-2026 (see the live availability panel for the exact current balance). Hudson Place launched May 2026 at S$2,458 psf and booked 61.5% (201 of 327) in two days.
- How do I get the Bloomsbury Residences balance unit list and book a viewing? +
- To get the current Bloomsbury Residences balance-unit list and book a showflat viewing, drop your details via the form on this page. The project is in the final ~10% of its units as of mid-2026, so availability is tight — our partner agent will get back with the live balance list, indicative pricing by stack, and any developer-side incentives still active.
