River Modern.

GuocoLand secured the River Valley Green (Parcel B) GLS tender on February 7, 2025, with a winning bid of S$627.84 million from five contenders. This translates to a land rate of S$1,420 psf per plot ratio, based on a 126,326 sqft land area and 442,142 sqft maximum gross floor area. River Modern offers a convenient urban living experience in a desirable district. Its prime location provides excellent connectivity, extensive amenities, and close proximity to top schools and healthcare, appealing to both families and investors in River Valley.

River Modern occupies a 126,325 sqft site at 5 River Valley Green in District 9, offering approximately 186 metres of direct Singapore River frontage. This waterfront positioning is a rare feature in the Core Central Region, where many new developments lack such direct river exposure. The design, by ipli Architects and P&T Consultants with landscape architecture by Tinderbox, employs a curvilinear architectural language inspired by the river's bends. This approach integrates the built environment with nature seamlessly. The development comprises two 36-storey towers, with six units per floor in one and seven in the other. These towers are positioned 48 metres apart from each other and roughly 100 metres from neighboring buildings, optimizing views and privacy while enhancing openness. Oriented north-south and subtly tilted, about 70% of units offer unblocked views of the Singapore River. Depending on the stack, residents may also enjoy vistas towards Orchard Road, the broader River Valley district, or Marina Bay Sands. Residential floors begin at an elevated height, equivalent to a typical fifth storey. This ensures even lower-floor units benefit from clear sightlines above surrounding treetops, reinforcing a sense of spaciousness. Over 80% of the site is dedicated to greenery and facilities, emphasizing lush landscaping. The overall landscape concept transitions through four interconnected outdoor zones: Lawn, Pool, Forest, and Riverside, each featuring unique upscale amenities.

Within the Riverside zone, a 170-metre nature trail with over 50 plant species extends alongside Kim Seng Park, visually integrating the park's greenery. Near the arrival lounge, residents can access GuocoLand’s Grand Lawn, a tennis court, and various patios and pavilions. Facilities at River Modern prioritize wellness and lifestyle, including a gym situated within the Forest landscape zone, offering views of the lush greenery. This area also provides several garden decks, lounges, and tranquil green pockets for relaxation. The Pool zone features a 50-metre infinity-edge pool that visually extends towards the river, complemented by spa alcoves and scalloped lounges. The elevated clubhouse includes two combinable function rooms and a viewing deck suitable for alfresco gatherings, providing serene views of the water and surrounding canopy.

River Modern offers exceptional connectivity, with direct access to Great World MRT Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) via an arrival lobby within the condominium. This provides residents with quick connections to major interchange stations, such as Outram Park, which links to the East-West Line (EWL) and North-East Line (NEL). Additional connectivity is available through numerous bus stops along River Valley Road and Kim Seng Road. For drivers, the Central Expressway (CTE) and Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) offer direct routes across Singapore. Future TEL extensions to Changi Airport Terminal 5 and the Johor Bahru–Singapore RTS terminal at Woodlands North will further enhance long-term travel convenience. This infrastructure growth adds to the development's appeal for long-term buyers.

River Modern provides an enhanced urban lifestyle with convenience and amenities. The Great World shopping mall, directly linked via an underground network, offers over 70 tenants for daily needs and dynamic retail experiences. The Orchard Road Shopping District, featuring The Paragon, ION Orchard, and Far East Plaza, is approximately 1 kilometre away. Food enthusiasts can visit Zion Riverside Food Centre and Tiong Bahru Market, both within walking distance, known for local hawker fare like char kway teow, big prawn noodles, and braised duck rice. Green spaces include the adjacent Kim Seng Park for walking and jogging, and Fort Canning Park, offering expansive lawns and historical sites like the Maritime Corner and Fort Gate. Healthcare needs are addressed by Mount Elizabeth Hospital, a short drive away. This full-facility hospital, operated by Parkway Health, is recognized for specialities in cardiology, oncology, neuroscience, and as a multi-organ transplant centre.

River Modern is appealing to families due to its proximity to reputable schools, which is a key factor for Primary 1 balloting. Noteworthy institutions include River Valley Primary School and St. Margaret’s Primary School. Primary schools within 1km include River Valley Primary School (with a sheltered walkway). Primary schools within 1-2km are Alexandra Primary School, Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), and St Margaret's School (Primary).

River Modern is situated at 5 River Valley Green, 239638, in the River Valley area within District 09.

The projected Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) for River Modern is in 2030. This date is the anticipated completion timeline, though it is subject to change.
