Generations@Tannery at 71 Tannery Lane — Rare Freehold Industrial Property Investment
By James Goh (R002565A) · 2026-03-22 · 467 words
Generations@Tannery: Singapore's Rarest Freehold Industrial Launch
Generations@Tannery at 71 Tannery Lane represents one of the most exciting industrial new launch opportunities in Singapore for 2026. What makes it truly exceptional is its freehold tenure — a rarity in Singapore's industrial property market where most developments carry only 30 or 60-year lease terms.
Combined with No ABSD on all industrial purchases, Generations@Tannery offers a compelling proposition for both end-users and investors seeking long-term asset preservation.
Why Freehold Industrial Property is So Valuable
1. Perpetual Ownership
Freehold means you own the property forever. There's no lease countdown eroding your asset value over time. For businesses, this provides ultimate security — you'll never face lease expiry or landlord renewal negotiations.
2. Stronger Capital Appreciation
Freehold industrial properties have historically appreciated more strongly than leasehold equivalents. As the supply of freehold industrial land in Singapore is virtually non-existent (the government stopped releasing freehold industrial land decades ago), existing freehold assets become increasingly scarce and valuable.
3. Legacy Asset
Freehold property can be passed down through generations — hence the name "Generations@Tannery." This makes it an ideal asset for family businesses and long-term wealth preservation.
4. No Lease Renewal Risk
Leasehold industrial properties face the risk of diminishing value as the lease term shortens. Freehold properties have no such concern — your asset maintains its full value indefinitely.
