Singapore’s industrial market has evolved significantly in recent years, with businesses placing greater emphasis on workspace quality, flexibility and long-term investment value. Modern occupiers increasingly seek industrial premises that not only support their operational requirements but also project a professional corporate image to clients and staff.
Located in Space 18 at 18 Lorong Ampas, this Type C2 B1 industrial unit offers the opportunity to own a freehold industrial property in one of Singapore’s newer high-specification industrial developments. Measuring 1,787 sq ft and offered for sale at $2,594,023, the unit combines a generous open floor plate, a 6.3-metre floor-to-floor ceiling height, full-height windows and an attached accessible bathroom, making it suitable for a wide range of owner-occupiers and investors alike.
A Highly Efficient 1,787 Sq Ft Layout
The unit has been designed around a simple yet highly efficient rectangular floor plate that maximises usable space while minimising structural obstructions. Columns are positioned along the perimeter, allowing businesses greater flexibility when planning their interior layout.
Without existing partitions, purchasers have complete freedom to customise the space according to their operational requirements. Whether configured as a corporate office, product showroom, research and development facility, design studio, technology workspace or a hybrid office and storage environment, the layout provides an excellent foundation for future fit-outs.
For businesses anticipating future expansion or operational changes, the open configuration also makes renovations and reconfiguration significantly easier.
Impressive 6.3-Metre Ceiling Height
One of the defining features of this unit is its impressive 6.3-metre floor-to-floor ceiling height, a specification that is rarely available in conventional industrial developments.
The additional vertical volume immediately creates a greater sense of openness while providing businesses with significantly more flexibility for future expansion.
Depending on operational requirements and the necessary approvals, the ceiling height may allow purchasers to incorporate mezzanine offices, additional storage platforms, double-volume reception areas or specialised production spaces. Even without further alterations, the generous ceiling height creates a brighter, more spacious work environment that enhances employee comfort while reinforcing a premium corporate image.
Bright Interior with Full-Height Windows
Natural light is another standout feature of this unit.
Large full-height windows stretch across one side of the premises, allowing generous amounts of daylight to penetrate deep into the workspace throughout the day. Besides reducing reliance on artificial lighting, the expansive glazing creates a brighter and more pleasant working environment compared to older industrial buildings with limited window openings.
Combined with the lofty ceiling and open layout, the natural lighting gives the unit a contemporary industrial aesthetic that is equally suited for offices, creative businesses and clean industrial operations.
Private Accessible Bathroom Within the Unit
Unlike many industrial developments where washroom facilities are shared along common corridors, this Type C2 unit comes with its own attached accessible bathroom.
This provides greater convenience for employees, visitors and clients while offering additional privacy for day-to-day operations. Having an in-unit washroom also reduces reliance on common facilities and supports businesses that regularly receive customers or business partners.
Ready for Immediate Fit-Out
The unit is presented in its original developer condition, featuring exposed concrete flooring, freshly completed walls and exposed ceiling services.
Rather than requiring purchasers to remove an existing tenant’s renovation, the space provides a clean blank canvas that can be customised according to individual operational requirements. This reduces renovation wastage while allowing businesses to create a workspace that reflects their own branding and workflow.
A Premium Freehold Industrial Development
Beyond the unit itself, purchasers also benefit from being part of Space 18, a modern freehold B1 industrial development designed with a stronger corporate focus than many conventional industrial buildings.
The development features a contemporary full-height glass façade that gives the building an office-like appearance while creating a professional corporate address. A covered drop-off area, landscaped entrance and elegant passenger lift lobby provide a welcoming arrival experience for both staff and clients.
Operational efficiency has also been carefully considered. The development includes three dedicated loading and unloading bays, a dedicated cargo lift connected to the loading areas, two passenger lifts, electric vehicle charging facilities and a Level 1 canteen with common washrooms. These shared amenities help create a more convenient working environment for businesses operating within the building.
Suitable for a Wide Range of Business Uses
As a high-specification B1 industrial unit, the property is suitable for a broad range of clean industrial and business activities, subject to the relevant regulatory requirements.
Potential occupiers include:
- Corporate headquarters
- Research and development companies
- Technology firms
- Interior design and architectural studios
- Product showrooms
- Medical technology businesses
- Creative agencies
- E-commerce operations
- Light assembly and production
- Import and distribution businesses
The combination of generous ceiling height, efficient layout and premium corporate environment allows the unit to accommodate businesses that require both operational functionality and a professional image.
