Sophia Road · District 9 · 99-year leasehold

One Sophia at a Glance

One Sophia is the office and retail podium of a mixed-use development at 1 Sophia Road, Singapore 228149, where Selegie Road, Sophia Road and Middle Road meet at the northern edge of the Civic District. It rises on the site of the former Peace Centre and Peace Mansion, and its developer, Sophia Commercial Pte. Ltd., describes it in the brochure as an iconic landmark at the heart of the Civic District, with the Central Business District and Orchard Road on either side.

Buyers searching for One Sophia Office, the One Sophia offices or simply 1 Sophia Road are looking at the same address. The building is a 13-storey podium about 61 metres tall: shops on the lower levels, the office lobby and an exclusive commercial drop-off at street level, and eleven storeys of strata offices from the 3rd to the 13th, with gardens woven through the facade. Two blocks of 367 residences stand beside the office tower on the same site, with a three-storey basement car park beneath. The project details page has every particular.

The land is held on a 99-year lease from 6 December 2023, and the developer expects vacant possession by 31 December 2029. Bencoolen MRT station is about 270 metres away and Dhoby Ghaut, an interchange of three lines, about 420 metres, so most of the city is a short ride from the office door.

122 strata offices · 3rd to 13th storeys

The Offices at One Sophia

The 122 strata offices of One Sophia occupy eleven storeys, from the 3rd to the 13th, arranged around a central core with the office lift lobby, the fire and service lift lobbies and the washrooms. There are ten units on the 3rd storey, twelve on each of the 4th to the 7th, eleven on each of the 8th to the 12th and nine on the 13th. The developer’s schedule of areas totals about 20,730 square metres of office space, which the brochure rounds to 220,000 sq ft, and a whole floor plate from about 12,600 sq ft.

Sizes run from 67 square metres, a compact suite for a practice or a family office, to 423 square metres for a firm that wants a whole wing. Each area includes an air-conditioner ledge of 3 to 5 square metres. Larger units on the 4th to the 7th storeys sit beneath the curved suspended garden, their glass walls following the sweep of the facade, and the developer has drawn test-fit layouts for several units and for adjoining units planned as one office.

The floor plan page shows the developer’s plan of every storey, and the office specifications page lists the floor loading, ceiling height, power and services.

The Workplace at One Sophia

Arrival at One Sophia is by its own covered commercial drop-off, separate from the shopping streets of the podium. The office lobby beyond has a ceiling four metres high, a grid chandelier and mirrored panels, with F&B options set beside the lift lobby, and a destination control lift system sends each person to the right car for their storey.

Above, the brochure describes workspaces designed to encourage interaction, and the storey plans place shared gardens on three levels: The Gardens with a garden lounge and alcove on the 3rd storey, the SOcial Lounge and SOcial Cove beside a garden deck on the 8th, and the SOcial Alcove, open to the sky, on the 13th. The building is fitted for a greener workplace, with EV charging points, end-of-trip facilities with bicycle parking, changing rooms and lockers, and an energy-efficient air-conditioning system. The amenities page covers each space.

The Retail Podium of One Sophia

Beneath the offices, the retail podium of One Sophia holds 127 strata retail units in about 90,000 sq ft of integrated retail space, by the developer’s figures. The brochure pictures it as sleek, contemporary spaces that come alive with LED displays, offering everyday essentials, curated retail and dining.

The developer groups the planned trade mix under six headings: everyday convenience, curated F&B, entertainment, artisanal experiences, leisure and health, and wellness and lifestyle. For an office occupier, that puts a coffee, a lunch and the day’s errands a lift ride away; for a retail buyer, a strata shop sits beneath eleven storeys of offices and beside two blocks of homes, on a corner that draws the students, office workers and visitors of the Bras Basah.Bugis district.

Cantilevered boxes · bronze fins · a suspended garden

One Sophia from the Street to the Roof

The developer’s brochure calls One Sophia a bold statement. Its facade is built from distinctive cantilevered glass boxes and elegant bronze fins wrapped in pockets of greenery, and across the corner of Selegie Road a curved, suspended garden sweeps down the building like a planted carpet, which the architects describe as the illusion of a suspended forest that takes nature in the city to a new level. ADDP Architects and studioMilou conceptualised the design.

The developer’s section shows how the building stacks: three basement levels of parking and services, a podium of shops with the commercial drop-off at street level, and eleven storeys of offices rising to about 61 metres, with the residences standing as a separate block beside them. The developer’s factsheet frames the whole as a vertical composition of gardens, office glass boxes and towers, with the retail mall nestled under the carpet of greenery.

Six stations · six lines

One Sophia and the MRT

Few office addresses have as many lines on their doorstep as One Sophia. Bencoolen station on the Downtown Line is about 270 metres from the site in a straight line on OneMap, and Dhoby Ghaut, where the North-South, North East and Circle Lines meet, about 420 metres, its nearest exit about 410 metres away. Rochor and Bras Basah stations are each about 500 metres away; the developer’s brochure draws a 700-metre radius around the site that takes in Dhoby Ghaut, Bencoolen, Rochor and Bras Basah, and the developer describes the site as connected to four MRT lines.

That spread matters for a business: staff and clients reach the office from Orchard, Woodlands, Punggol, Bukit Panjang, the east and the CBD without a long transfer, and Raffles Place, City Hall and Marina Bay are a few stops away. The MRT and transport guide covers each route.

Civic District · Bras Basah.Bugis · Orchard

Doing Business Around One Sophia

One Sophia sits where three quarters of the city meet. To the south lie the Civic District and the Bras Basah.Bugis precinct, the arts and learning quarter that URA rejuvenated around its schools, museums and conserved buildings; to the west, past Plaza Singapura about 480 metres away, Orchard Road begins; and to the north, Little India and the trade streets of Rochor. Sim Lim Square is about 460 metres away and the National Library about 670 metres, all measured in a straight line on OneMap.

For a firm, that means clients and staff can meet over lunch at a dozen addresses within ten minutes on foot, from the National Museum of Singapore, about 500 metres away, to CHIJMES, about 790 metres, and Raffles City, about 910 metres. The School of the Arts is about 210 metres from the site, LASALLE College of the Arts about 310 metres and Singapore Management University about 570 metres, which brings a steady flow of graduates, events and creative businesses to the neighbourhood.
