Lentor-Modern-Overview

Lentor Modern is a new development at Lentor Central, right next to and connected to Lentor MRT station. It will be the center of a new township in a private landed area.

This development will include a supermarket, childcare center, food and beverage outlets, and various shops, along with the Lentor Modern condo. The project is by GuocoLand Limited, a top real estate developer in Singapore known for high-quality projects.

Located in the new Lentor Hills Estate, Lentor Modern will be part of a quiet neighborhood with mostly low to mid-rise condominiums and landed homes.

The area is close to parks, reservoirs, and nature reserves, offering residents open views of the surrounding greenery. The three residential towers are spaced out in a row to ensure privacy and maximize views towards the Lower Seletar Reservoir Park.

GuocoLand will use its expertise from city projects like Wallich Residence, Midtown Bay, and Midtown Modern to transform the Lentor Hills area.

The company’s CEO, Mr. Cheng Hsing Yao, expressed their vision: “We are known for transforming neighborhoods, like Tanjong Pagar and the upcoming Midtown area at Bugis-Beach Road. We believe this project can make Lentor Hills an exciting residential and lifestyle destination.”

The development will feature three 25-storey towers with a sky terrace in each. There will be 605 residential units ranging from 1- to 4-bedroom apartments, with 50% of the units offering unblocked views.

Lentor-Modern-Town

Below the residential towers, there will be two levels of retail space, totaling 96,000 square feet. This includes a 10,000 square feet childcare facility, various shops, food and beverage options, clinics, and a 12,000 square feet supermarket.

The development will be directly connected to Lentor MRT station. The area is planned to be pedestrian-friendly, with new parks and green spaces providing safe access for cyclists and pedestrians.

The area is well-connected by major roads and expressways like the Central Expressway (CTE), Seletar Expressway (SLE), and the upcoming North-South Corridor (NSC).

Residents will have easy access to recreational venues such as the future Hillock and Linear parks, Yio Chu Kang Stadium & Sports Complex, Lower Peirce Reservoir and Park, and Thomson Nature Park.

GuocoLand plans to launch Lentor Modern condo for sale in 2022. Analysts expect a strong response due to the site’s attributes, convenience, and the lack of new housing supply in the area. The last new project in the vicinity was The Calrose, launched over 15 years ago in 2005.

There is expected to be significant demand from buyers, including property owners in the surrounding landed estates, their adult children, and HDB upgraders nearby, given the diminishing supply in the OCR (Outside Central Region) zone.

The Lentor Modern condominium will be built above commercial retail space on the ground floor, directly connected to Lentor MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL), which opened in 2021.

 

This prime location provides residents with easy access to major business hubs like Woodlands Regional Centre to the north and the Central Business District (CBD) and Marina Bay Financial District to the south.

The commercial area will include a supermarket and an Early Childhood Development Centre. Other spaces will likely feature restaurants, food and beverage outlets, and retail shops to meet residents’ daily needs.

This development is the first and most strategically located parcel in the new Lentor Hills Estate, envisioned as a gateway to the area and Hillock Park. The design includes a public plaza to create a welcoming entrance and improve access to public transport, such as bus stops and Lentor MRT station.

Lentor-Modern-Aerial Pool

Previously, this site was a secondary forest with a freshwater stream. Inspired by this, the Lentor Modern design features organic landscaping with lush tree groves at ground level to preserve the memory of the original forest. The fourth-floor landscape deck will be richly planted and include a 200-meter long water feature.

Garden pavilions, pool alcoves, and terraces will be placed along the water features, offering residents a natural and relaxing environment. These areas are perfect for exercising, strolling, reading, yoga, glamping, gardening, or socializing, aligning with the theme of “wellness with nature.”

At the fourth level, amidst gardens and landscaping, three residential towers will rise, each with a sky terrace on the 14th floor, providing quiet spaces for small group interactions, work, and enjoying views of the surrounding reservoirs and nature reserves.

The towers’ facades will have contrasting earth tones and sun-shading features. Screens on the facades will allow pixelated light into living spaces and balconies, mimicking sunlight filtering through forest canopies.

Lentor Modern Site Plan

The project site is a roughly rectangular piece of land, oriented in a north-west to south-east direction.

It is bordered by Lentor Drive to the north-east, Lentor Hills Road to the south-east, and Lentor Central on the other two sides.

Lentor-Modern-Siteplan

Across Lentor Drive, on one of its longer sides, lies the Lentor Estate, which consists of low-rise landed houses. This well-established freehold estate offers unblocked open views to the units facing this direction.

On the other long side, across Lentor Central to the south-west and north-west, there is currently forested land. The future Hillock Park will be built here, along with several new developments, which means the currently unblocked view on this side will eventually change.

The Lentor Modern condo is being developed by GuocoLand Limited, a part of the Hong Leong Group, known as one of Singapore’s top developers.

GuocoLand Limited

GuocoLand Limited is a public company based in Singapore, listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) since 1978. The Group’s main activities include property development, property management and investment, and hotel operations.

In Singapore, GuocoLand has completed over 36 residential projects, adding more than 10,000 homes to the local market.

The Group is renowned for Guoco Tower, a landmark $3.2 billion integrated development at Tanjong Pagar Centre. Completed in 2016, it stands over 280 meters tall, making it the tallest building in Singapore.

Lentor-Modern-Developer

One of GuocoLand’s main priorities is eco-friendliness and sustainability. Several of its projects, including Leedon Residence, Martin Modern, Wallich Residence, Goodwood Residence, Elliot at East Coast, Sophia Residence, The Waterline, and Sims Urban Oasis, have won environmental sustainability awards like the BCA’s Green Mark Award.

GuocoLand has also received numerous other awards, both locally and internationally, for the quality of its developments. These include the BCI Asia Awards, FIABCI Property Awards, the South East Asia Property Awards, and the International Property Awards.

Location

The Lentor Modern condo is situated at Lentor Central in the Thomson area, known for its predominantly landed housing and close proximity to nature reserves, reservoirs, and parks.

Lentor Central is part of the new Lentor Hills Estate, a planned housing enclave. This area, currently forested, will be developed with new roads like Lentor Hills Road and Lentor Gardens, as well as new parks like Linear Park and Hillock Park. It lies between the established landed homes of Teachers’ Estate and Lentor Estate.

Nearest MRT Station

Lentor Modern is directly connected to Lentor MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL), which began operations in 2021. According to GuocoLand, this provides residents with easy access to key destinations like Bukit Timah, Botanic Gardens, Orchard Road, and Marina Bay, extending all the way to East Coast.

The TEL also connects to other major MRT lines, including the East-West Line, North-South Line, North-East Line, Downtown Line, and Circle Line, covering over half the island.

F&B, Supermarkets, Shops, Banks

Residents will find shopping and retail options right at their doorstep, with Lentor Modern’s ground level offering a supermarket, various F&B outlets, shops, and a childcare centre. Additionally, a 10-minute walk will take residents to the wet market and neighborhood shops along Ang Mo Kio Ave 4.

For more extensive shopping, Thomson Plaza at Upper Thomson MRT station is three stations away on the TEL, providing a convenient option with covered access to the station.

Schools & Academic Institutions

Within a 1 km radius of Lentor Modern is Anderson Primary School, and CHIJ St Nicholas Girls’ School is about 1.2 km away. Other schools within easy reach include Catholic High at Bishan, Ai Tong School at Thomson, Presbyterian High School, Raffles Institution, Raffles Girls’ School, Anderson Serangoon Junior College, and Nanyang Polytechnic.

Sports & Recreation Venues

Lentor Modern’s location offers easy access to several nature reserves and parks, including Lower Peirce Reservoir Park, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park, Upper Seletar Reservoir Park, and the 50-hectare Thomson Nature Park. Closer to home, residents will have Hillock Park and Linear Park nearby, as well as the Yio Chu Kang Stadium & Sports Complex at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5, about 2 km away.

This proximity to central water catchment areas and extensive nature parks is likely to appeal to those interested in wellness and nature.

Accessibility

The location is accessible via major expressways. It is a 7-minute drive to the Central Expressway (CTE) via Yio Chu Kang Road and the Seletar Expressway (SLE) via Lentor Avenue. Off-peak, it takes about 30 to 35 minutes to drive to the CBD and Marina Bay, and roughly 20 minutes to Changi Airport.

Lentor Hills Residences

Lentor Hills Residences Featured Image

Lentor Hills Residences Overview

Welcome to the launch of Lentor Hills Residences, a new condominium in the Lentor Hills Estate. This area is mostly private housing, with many landed homes and low to mid-rise condominiums, making it a peaceful neighborhood.

Lentor Hills Residences is in a prime location, right next to Lentor Central and across from Lentor MRT station and Lentor Modern.

Lentor Modern is a mixed-use development currently being built. It will include a new neighborhood mall with a childcare center, shops, eateries, and a large supermarket, serving residents of the estate and nearby areas.

Lentor Hills Residences will have a covered walkway connecting it to both the MRT station and Lentor Modern mall through the Garden Gate. From this entrance, an internal garden path leads residents to their respective towers. This path is surrounded by lush greenery, making the walk home pleasant.

The developers of Lentor Hills Residences are GuocoLand (also developing Lentor Modern), Hong Leong Holdings, and TID. These are all top developers in Singapore known for their high-quality projects.

The location of Lentor Hills Residences is special because it is one of only five sites around Hillock Park. Hillock Park is the highest point in the area, and the five sites slope up towards it.

Lentor Hills Residences Air View

This area was originally secondary forest, and Hillock Park was planned to keep a part of that forest for future generations.

The five sites are separated by green corridors that connect to the surrounding area and the MRT station. This means that Lentor Hills condo will have some space from its immediate neighbors, especially on the side facing Hillock Park.

The layout of the new estate emphasizes green spaces and safe access for pedestrians and cyclists. The URA masterplan envisions it as a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood surrounded by lush greenery.

The neighborhood includes about 157 hectares of nature reserves, parks, and reservoirs, offering many recreational spots. Within the estate, there are Hillock and Linear Parks, and to the north, we have the Lower Seletar Reservoir and Park.

To the east, you’ll find Thomson Nature Park and Lower Peirce Reservoir and Park, part of the Central Water Catchment Area. This provides a lot of green space for fresh air and cooling.

For young families, a practical advantage is that Anderson Primary School is within 1 KM. Some parts of the condo may also be within 1 KM of St. Nicholas Girls’ Primary School.

For transportation, residents have access to the Thomson-East Coast MRT Line, as well as a network of expressways and main roads. One key route is the new North-South Corridor (NSC), just a 5-minute drive away.

This new expressway will connect the North Region of Singapore directly to the City Centre. It’s not just for drivers; with dedicated bus lanes, bus commuters can save 10 to 15 minutes on their travel time.

Additionally, the NSC will have a cycling route that connects with the Park Connector Network and local cycling paths. This will make it easier and safer for cyclists and active mobility users to get around.

The developers, with their extensive experience in residential and mixed developments, aim to transform Lentor Hills.

GuocoLand Group’s CEO, Mr. Cheng Hsing Yao, shared their vision for Lentor Modern, saying, “We are known for transforming neighborhoods, as seen in Tanjong Pagar and the upcoming Midtown area at Bugis-Beach Road. We see great potential for this project to redefine Lentor Hills as an exciting residential and lifestyle destination.”

Lentor Hills Residences will benefit from the growth of Lentor Hills as a lifestyle destination. Hong Leong and GuocoLand plan to enhance the unique character of the site and its surroundings.

They will blend the development with the greenery of Hillock Park and the green corridors extending from it. The area will be lushly landscaped, maintaining the overall greenery. The goal is to create a beautiful environment that encourages an active lifestyle amidst nature.

The new development will use building styles that fit well with the neighborhood, including the nearby landed homes, parks, and the Lentor Modern mixed development across Lentor Central.

The site will have access points aligned with the public plaza at Lentor Modern, which serves as the main entrance to the estate from the MRT station. This station on the Thomson-East Coast MRT Line (TEL) will take residents directly to major business hubs like the CBD and Marina Bay Financial District, as well as Woodlands Regional Centre.

Residents can also reach Orchard Road easily. It takes 22 minutes to travel from Lentor station to Orchard station, which is up to 5 minutes faster than traveling from Holland Village to Orchard station. Plus, the entire journey from Lentor Hills condo is sheltered.

The response to the Lentor Hills condominium launch is expected to be good, considering the convenience of the location, the reputation of the developers, and the limited supply of new housing in recent years. This is especially true for 4 and 5-bedroom private apartments, which are very scarce within a 1KM radius.

This development may attract long-time residents in the area who want to downsize or young married couples looking to live near their parents in the nearby estates.

Lentor Hills Residences Top View

The condominium is also close to various recreational venues, such as the future Hillock and Linear parks within the estate, Yio Chu Kang Stadium & Sports Complex, Lower Peirce Reservoir and Park, and Thomson Nature Park.

The Lentor Hills Condo site is designated for residential development, featuring a condominium with full communal facilities. Additionally, a minimum of 5,380 square feet is reserved for an infant and childcare center, which will accommodate up to 100 children, including infants. This is in addition to the 10,000 square feet Early Childhood Development Centre at Lentor Modern next door.

The site slopes uphill towards Hillock Park at the back, offering opportunities for unique landscaping and architectural features.

The design of Lentor Hills Residences is tailored to the natural topography of the site and its surroundings.

The site is divided into three zones:

  • A low-rise zone up to 8 storeys high, facing Lentor Hills Road.
  • A mid-rise zone up to 16 storeys, including a sky terrace, facing the south-west green corridor.
  • A high-rise zone up to 23 storeys, including a sky terrace, facing the north-eastern green corridor and Hillock Park.

These different building heights help capture and channel wind flows, cooling the development.

The building façade incorporates tropical design strategies to suit Singapore’s climate, ensuring residents’ comfort. It features a good balance of windows and walls for visual openness.

Elements of tropical architecture, such as window ledges, balconies, and vertical green walls, help reduce heat. The double-volume sky terraces in the taller blocks also promote wind flows, further cooling the development.

Lentor Hills Residences Site Plan

Lentor Hills Residences Facilities Map

This project site is one of five land parcels around Hillock Park, located next to Lentor Central and Lentor MRT station. It is roughly triangular and lies to the southeast of the park.

It borders Hillock Park on its northwest side, with extensions of the park on its north and southwest sides. Its only road frontage is on the southeast, along the small estate road, Lentor Hills Road.

This ensures a quiet location, free from heavy traffic noise.

Lentor Hills Residences Facilities Map 2

The land around the site used to be forested, and Hillock Park preserves a part of that. Currently, most sides offer unblocked views towards the Lower Seletar and Peirce reservoirs. However, as nearby land parcels are developed, these views will become obstructed.

There might still be some partial views in the future, thanks to the low-rise landed properties in the surrounding area.

DEVELOPER

Lentor Hills Residences is being developed by a consortium of two major property players in Singapore.

Intrepid Investments, a unit of Hong Leong Holdings, partnered with TID (a joint venture between Hong Leong and Mitsui Fudosan) and sister company GuocoLand for this project. They submitted the top bid of SGD$586.6 million to acquire the GLS site, likely because GuocoLand is already developing Lentor Modern next door.

Hong Leong Holdings expressed their enthusiasm in a press release, stating, “We are pleased to achieve the highest bid for Lentor Hills Road Parcel A.” They also mentioned their plan to build a 600-unit residential development where residents will enjoy nearby amenities.

The presence of Lentor MRT station across the road will further enhance the site’s appeal to buyers.

Location

 

Lentor Hills Residences is located along Lentor Hills Road in the Thomson area, a neighborhood known for its private housing, mostly consisting of landed homes. It’s valued for its proximity to various nature parks, reservoirs, and nature reserves.

Lentor Hills Road is part of the new Lentor Hills Estate. According to the URA’s masterplan, this estate will be developed on land that was once forested, situated between Lentor Estate and Teachers’ Estate. The estate will feature new parks, such as Hillock Park and Linear Park, and new roads like Lentor Central and Lentor Gardens.

Nearest MRT Station

Lentor Hills Residences is just across from Lentor MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL). Currently, only part of the TEL is operational, but the entire line will be running by the time the project is completed.

As GuocoLand highlights, this will provide residents with convenient and immediate access to the TEL, connecting them to Bukit Timah, Botanic Gardens, Orchard Road, Marina Bay, and the East Coast.

Residents will have fully sheltered access to Lentor station via a covered walkway leading to the Lentor Modern plaza.

Lentor station is three stops from Woodlands Regional Centre, where URA has designated 100 hectares for development into a commercial hub for industry, research, learning, and innovation.

The TEL also directly connects to other MRT lines, including the Circle Line, Downtown Line, North-East Line, North-South Line, and East-West Line, making travel to over half the island easy and convenient.

F&B, Supermarkets, Shops, Banks

The nearest shopping center is Lentor Modern, right next door. This mixed-use development will offer at least 96,000 square feet of retail space, including a 12,000 sq ft supermarket, a childcare center, over 50 shops, and various eateries.

Additionally, there are HDB neighborhood shops and a wet market within a 10-minute walk at Ang Mo Kio Ave 4.

Thomson Plaza, located at Upper Thomson MRT station, is another nearby shopping option. It’s three stations up the TEL and offers sheltered access to the station, making it a convenient choice in any weather.

Schools & Academic Institutions

Anderson Primary School is within a 1 km radius of Lentor Hills Residences. Some blocks might also be within 1 km of CHIJ St Nicholas Girls’ School.

Other primary schools along the TEL line are also easily accessible, such as Ai Tong School at Thomson and Catholic High at Bishan. Nearby secondary and tertiary schools include Raffles Girls’ School, Raffles Institution, Presbyterian High School, Nanyang Polytechnic, and Anderson Serangoon Junior College.

Sports, Nature & Recreation Venues

Lentor Hills is close to the central water catchment area, offering a wealth of nature reserves, parks, and reservoirs. It is situated between Lower Seletar Reservoir & Park to the northeast and the 50-hectare Thomson Nature Park and Lower Peirce Reservoir & Park to the west.

Residents will also enjoy their own greenery with Hillock Park nearby, one of five sites clustered at the highest point in the area. Hillock Park connects to Linear Park to the northwest. For sports enthusiasts, Yio Chu Kang Stadium & Sports Complex is just 2 km away at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5.

With the growing appreciation for nature and wellness, the abundance of parks and greenery should attract many buyers.

Accessibility

Lentor Hills Residences is easily accessible from the expressway network. It is about a 7-minute drive from both the Seletar Expressway via Lentor Avenue and the Central Expressway (CTE) via Yio Chu Kang Road. In the future, it will be just a 2-minute drive from the upcoming North-South Corridor, a new expressway under construction.

From the CTE, it takes about 30 to 35 minutes during off-peak hours to reach Raffles Place and Marina Bay financial districts. Changi Airport is also conveniently reachable in about 20 minutes via the Seletar and Tampines expressways.
