Thomson Reserve is a 1,268-unit, 99-year leasehold condominium at 1 to 11 Bright Hill Drive in Upper Thomson, District 20. It is developed by UOL, SingLand and CapitaLand through Tamarind Development Pte. Ltd., on the site of the former Thomson View Condominium. The VVIP preview runs from 17 to 27 October 2026 and sales open on 31 October 2026.

Thomson Reserve is developed by Tamarind Development Pte. Ltd., a joint venture of UOL Group, Singapore Land Group (SingLand) and CapitaLand Development. The same consortium developed Parktown Residence, which sold 87% of its units on launch weekend in February 2025. UOL was named Best Sustainable Developer (Singapore) at the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards in 2024 and 2025. See the developer profile.

Yes. Thomson Reserve is the official name of the project previously marketed as Thomson View Residences, and it was renamed by the developer in January 2026. It is built on the former Thomson View Condominium site, sold en bloc for S$810 million, with the acquisition completed on 2 October 2025. Registrations made under the old name remain valid.

No. Thomson Reserve is in District 20 at Bright Hill Drive, Upper Thomson. The Thomson Lane condo is a separate project in District 11 (Novena) by a different developer. The two share the word Thomson but differ in district, developer and launch timeline. See the Thomson Reserve vs Thomson Lane comparison.

Thomson Reserve has 1,268 residential units: 740 in the Classic Collection and 528 in the Luxury Collection. The unit count was confirmed by the developer on 18 June 2026. Some property portals still show an outdated figure of 1,240 units, which is incorrect.

Thomson Reserve has six blocks. The Classic Collection has four 21-storey blocks at 1, 3, 9 and 11 Bright Hill Drive. The Luxury Collection has two 30-storey blocks at 5 and 7 Bright Hill Drive, positioned closest to the Singapore Island Country Club.

Thomson Reserve is a 99-year leasehold development, with the lease commencing on 14 July 2026. It is not freehold.

Thomson Reserve sits on approximately 51,567 sqm (555,067 sqft) of land with a plot ratio of 2.1, making it one of the largest residential plots in District 20. That is roughly the size of 7 football fields, which is why facilities are spread across three separate clubs. See the site plan.

Thomson Reserve’s expected date of vacant possession is 28 February 2031, and expected legal completion is 28 February 2034. Both dates are subject to regulatory approvals.

The architect of Thomson Reserve is P&T Consultants, the landscape consultant is Eco Plan Asia, the interior designer is 2nd Edition Pte Ltd and the main contractor is Lian Beng Construction.

Thomson Reserve has 10 unit types: 2-Bedroom (592 sqft), 2-Bedroom Premium (678 sqft), 2-Bedroom Premium + Study (732 or 775 sqft), 3-Bedroom (947 sqft), 3-Bedroom Premium (1,055 sqft), 3-Bedroom Premium + Study (1,152 sqft), 4-Bedroom (1,238 sqft), 4-Bedroom Premium with private lift (1,367 sqft), 4-Bedroom Premium + Study with private lift (1,485 sqft) and 5-Bedroom Suite with private lift (1,808 sqft).

No. Thomson Reserve has no 1-bedroom units. The smallest unit is the 2-Bedroom at 592 sqft, and the development offers 2-Bedroom to 5-Bedroom Suite layouts only. Listings showing a 1-bedroom type at Thomson Reserve are inaccurate.

2-bedroom types make up 716 of Thomson Reserve’s 1,268 units (about 57%), with the 2-Bedroom Premium the largest single type at 416 units. 3-bedroom types total 350 units (about 28%), and 4-bedroom and 5-bedroom types total 202 units (about 16%). Family-sized units are the scarcer stock. See the full unit mix table.

112 units at Thomson Reserve have a private lift: 56 units of 4-Bedroom Premium, 28 units of 4-Bedroom Premium + Study and 28 units of 5-Bedroom Suite. All are in the Luxury Collection at 5 and 7 Bright Hill Drive.

The Classic Collection at Thomson Reserve has 740 units in four 21-storey blocks, offering 2-Bedroom to 4-Bedroom types with Smeg appliances. The Luxury Collection has 528 units in two 30-storey blocks, offering 2-Bedroom Premium to 5-Bedroom Suite types, including all private lift units, with marble living areas, solid oak timber bedrooms and Miele appliances. Both share the same facilities, MRT access and school proximity. See the unit selection guide.

The official unit mix released by the developer lists 10 unit types at Thomson Reserve, and none is designated as a dual-key layout. Buyers looking for multi-generational space should consider the 4-Bedroom Premium + Study or the 5-Bedroom Suite.

Every Thomson Reserve unit has a 2.85m floor-to-ceiling height in living, dining and bedrooms, a sintered stone kitchen worktop and a smart home system with digital lockset, smart air-conditioner control and home hub. Classic Collection kitchens use Smeg appliances. Luxury Collection kitchens use Miele, with a Liebherr fridge and wine chiller in the largest types. Sanitary fittings are by Grohe. 4-Bedroom and 5-Bedroom types have ducted air-conditioning, and 3-Bedroom types and above have town gas.

According to the developer, more than 45% of Thomson Reserve’s stacks face the Central Catchment Nature Reserve and a further 35% overlook the internal landscape and waterscape, so over 80% of stacks have greenery or landscape views. To the south, low-rise landed housing keeps the view corridor towards MacRitchie Reservoir and the city skyline open. Residential blocks cover only 12% of the site, with the other 88% given to landscaping, water features and facilities.
