Lentor Modern After TOP: Early Subsale Wins Signal Growing Maturity in Lentor Hills

Lentor Modern After TOP: Early Subsale Wins Signal Growing Maturity in Lentor Hills

Lentor Modern is starting to show what many buyers had anticipated from the start — early signs of value uplift after TOP. Completed earlier this year, the 605-unit development by GuocoLand is not just another condominium. It is the first and only integrated mixed-use project in Lentor Hills Estate, combining residential living with a retail mall directly linked to Lentor MRT (Thomson–East Coast Line).

Following the issuance of its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) at end-August, homeowners have only recently begun collecting their keys. Yet, within a short period, the resale market has already started moving — and the numbers are telling.


Early Subsales Point to Strong Market Confidence

Since TOP, eight subsale transactions have been recorded at Lentor Modern. Seven achieved double-digit gains ranging from 13% to 21%, while the remaining unit still posted a respectable 9% increase.

Most of these transactions involved three-bedroom units between 980 sq ft and 1,109 sq ft, highlighting sustained demand for family-sized layouts. One larger four-bedroom unit (1,528 sq ft) was also among the recorded subsales.

This follows Lentor Modern’s strong debut back in September 2022, when 84% of units were snapped up during the launch weekend — a clear indicator of buyers’ confidence in the Lentor transformation story from day one.


Integrated Living as a Key Differentiator

What sets Lentor Modern apart is its integrated development concept, something no other project in the estate currently offers. The upcoming mall — scheduled to open in January 2026 — will feature:

  • A supermarket anchor (CS Fresh)

  • Preschool (Mulberry Learning)

  • F&B, retail, and wellness offerings

  • Direct sheltered access to Lentor MRT

This integration enhances daily convenience and supports stronger owner-occupier and tenant appeal over time.


Lentor Hills Estate: Nearing Full Absorption

The broader Lentor Hills Estate has also proven its popularity. To date:

  • Six projects totalling 2,954 units have been launched
  • 98.2% of total supply has already been taken up
  • GuocoLand has been involved in four projects — all 100% sold

Recent examples include:

  • Lentor Central Residences (477 units), fully sold within months of its March launch
  • Lentor Hills Residences (598 units), fully sold by August, with its first subsale recording an 11% gain

Looking ahead, a seventh project at Lentor Gardens (around 500 units) is expected to launch in 2026, while an eighth residential plot next to Lentor Modern — capable of yielding about 560 units — is currently up for tender, closing in March 2026.
