Camden Park is the 2nd smallest GCBA after Rebecca Park and occupies a nice little rectangle located off Adam Road, yielding just ~26 GCBs. Its origins come either from the London Borough of Camden or the Battle of Camden in South Carolina (1780). My bet is on the former given our British colonial past.
It also shares the boundary with the Chee Hoon Avenue Good Class Bungalow Area and is close to Adam Rd Food Centre and Botanic Gardens MRT.
In recent years, the most famous GCB here is perhaps Envirohub CEO Raymond Ng‘s 34,000 sqft Tang Dynasty inspired home (#1). It is on the market for $63m and the Youtube video has garnered 600k views. Raymond is a serial property investor and developer who also listed his 69,000 sqft GCB at Yarwood Ave for sale at ~$90m and developed some 200+k sqft of GCB land at Bishopsgate back in the 2000s, after purchasing the plot from HSBC for just $252 psf. He also developed Lumiere and The Arc at Draycott as part of his property portfolio.
Owners in this GCBA are said to include / once have included Venture Corp CEO Wong Ngit Liong, Kian Ho Bearings (now Raffles United) Managing Director Teo Teng Beng, whose delisted firm has 3 executives charged with false trading in July 2021.
Others also include property developer Nanshan Group’s Song family , who purchased their 29,150 sqft home here for $40m ($1,373 psf) and top AIA agent Mary Chen.
