Lentor Gardens Residences saw an encouraging take-up rate on its first day of launch, where buyer profiles were heavily dominated by young couples looking to secure their first matrimonial homes, alongside young singles strongly supported by their parents.
The development's efficient unit layouts proved popular with buyers, highlighted by a 100% sell-out rate for both the 3-bedroom Compact and 3-bedroom Compact + Study layout tiers (15 out of 15 units each) within hours. This points to robust demand for functional spaces that maintain a palatable absolute quantum, which averaged between $2.05 million and $2.21 million.
Additionally, buyers showed willingness to pay a premium for extra space and enhanced own-stay provisions. Notably, the 2-Bedroom Premium (HS) achieved a 93% sales rate (28 out of 30 units), while the 3-Bedroom Premium units saw a strong 79% take-up (61 out of 77 units).
The commercial segment mirrored this success, with all 3 retail shop units instantly swept up at an average of $2,550 psf.
Sales momentum is expected to continue, in light of the overall limited supply of homes in the Lentor precinct. There is only one remaining project in the vicinity slated for launch, possibly next year.
Beyond competitive pricing, the development's appeal is strongly supported by its thoughtfully planned layouts and generous green and biophilic spaces. Owner-occupiers and families will be further drawn by premium locational attributes, including being within walking distance of the Lentor MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line and situated close to the Lentor Modern mall. The project's proximity to established educational institutions — such as Anderson Primary School, CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School, and Presbyterian High School —further solidifies its position as an attractive choice for long-term residency.
