新加坡统计局2017年公布的统计数据显示，新加坡所有住宅产业中，有5.2%是有地房产。在土地稀缺的新加坡，有地住宅长期以来被视为地位的象征。我们希望为坐拥此类房产并希望最大程度实现理想生活方式的家庭提供帮助，首次推出有地房产设计系列，本期主要关注排屋和影响其设计的URA规划参数。我们将在后续文章中讨论新加坡其他常见的地产类型，如半独立式房屋和独立式房屋。

土地面积

新加坡有两种排屋：

I型排屋

• 中间单位的最小地块面积为150平方米
• 角头单位的最小地块面积为200平方米

II型排屋

• 中间及角头单位的最小地块面积为80平方米

地块宽度可以不同，但中间单位的宽度不小于6m，角头单位的宽度不小于8m。

土地利用

《URA总体规划》每五年更新一次，规定了新加坡允许的土地用途和土地及房地产开发密度。土地所有者可以参考土地住宅区规划，以了解其产业的土地使用情况。简单来说，这份规划图将标明排屋允许的层高。

高度控制

排屋增高或重建的设计，必须遵守URA的2015年有地房产围护结构控制指南。二层、三层排屋的总高度分别为12米和15.5米。如果想最大限度地增加建筑面积，可以选择在URA规定的15.5米的范围内搭建三层和一个阁楼。

根据预算和空间要求，在围护控制范围仍然还有许多其他的设计变化。

建筑退缩尺度

I型排屋的建筑侧面、后面的退缩量为2米，而正面的退缩量则取决于房屋面对的道路类别。欲了解道路类别，可以参考LTA（陆地运输管理局）的道路线路规划。

II型排屋的建筑退缩尺度为2米。

除了标准规划参数之外，退缩尺度还可能受实地的其他因素影响。许多情况下，有地房屋的背面有小型下水道，根据下水道的深度和尺寸，可能需要进一步退缩，也可以选择建造混凝土沟渠。上述讨论的规划参数是对其的广泛理解。我们知道，每间住宅都是独一无二的，每位客户的要求都不尽相同。如需了解更多信息，请 点击此处 联系我们.

Landed house design series – Terrace houses

According to statistics published by the Singapore Department of Statistics in 2017, 5.2% of all residential properties in Singapore are landed houses. In land-scarce Singapore, landed homes have long been perceived as a status symbol. For families who live in landed properties and would like to maximize their lifestyle, this is the first installation of our Landed Houses Design Series, which focuses on Terrace Houses and the URA planning parameters affecting its design. We will discuss the other commonly found landed property types in Singapore, such as the semi-detached houses and detached houses, in subsequent articles.

Land Size

There are 2 types of terrace houses in Singapore:

Terrace Houses Type 1

• Minimum plot size of 150m2, for intermediate units
• Minimum plot size of 200m2, for corner units

Terrace Houses Type 2

• Minimum plot size of 80m2, for both intermediate and corner units

The width of a terrace plot may vary but they are not less than 6m wide for the intermediate units and 8m for corner units.

Land Use

The URA Master Plan, which is reviewed every 5 years, sets out the permissible land use and density of the development of land and property in Singapore. Land owners can refer to the Landed Housing Areas Plan, to find out the land use of their property. Broadly speaking, this plan informs you on the allowable storey height of the terrace house.

Height Control

For terrace houses which are designed to undergo new erection or reconstruction, they will be subject to the new Envelop Control Guidelines for landed houses, introduced by URA in 2015. For 2-storey and 3-storey terrace houses, they have an overall height of 12m and 15.5m respectively. In the case of a 3-storey terrace house, if you would like to maximize the built-in floor area, you can choose to have 3 storeys and an attic, within the 15.5m envelope, stipulated by URA.

Depending on your construction budget and spatial requirements, there are many other design variations within the envelop control possible.

Building Setback

For terrace houses type 1, the building setback is 2m for the side and rear, while the front setback is dependent on the category of road it is fronting. In order to find out the category of road, you can interpret LTA’s (Land Transport Authority) Road Line Plan.

For terrace houses type 2, the building setback is 2m for all sides.

Besides the typical planning parameters, setback requirements can also be subject to the encroachment of other elements on the site. In many cases, there are minor sewers present at the rear of the landed house. Depending on the depth and size of the minor sewer, further setbacks may be required. Alternatively, concrete trenches can also be constructed.   The planning parameters discussed above are to provide for a broad based understanding of the planning parameters. We understand that every site is unique and every Client’s requirements are different. To find out more about terrace house design, you can contact us here.
