Summary: In a swift sell-out, GuocoLand’s Lentor Modern and Midtown Modern have completed sales of all units, highlighting strong demand for their strategic locations and amenities.
Introduction 1: Welcome, homeowners and buyers. Think of Lentor Modern and Midtown Modern as two shining examples of well-placed projects that move fast in today’s market. GuocoLand has announced both developments are now fully sold, sending a clear signal that these homes are hitting the right notes with location, layout, and daily amenities.
The final apartment sold at Lentor Modern measures 1,130 sq ft and was purchased at $2.4 million ($2,126 psf) on Jan 19, marking the last piece of a 605-unit puzzle. The project was first introduced in September 2022 and attained a complete sell-out within 2½ years of launch, achieving an approximate average of $2,107 psf.
Lentor Modern’s strong take-up echoes the momentum seen at Midtown Modern, which averages about $2,825 psf. This 99-year leasehold at Tan Quee Lan Street forms part of the larger Guoco Midtown integrated project, launched in March 2021 and now fully sold.
Property searches for fresh launches often point to units that provide both comfort and city access. Lentor Modern, with its 99-year lease, comprises three 25-floor residential towers and sits atop a 96,000 sq ft retail space featuring a supermarket, childcare center, and dining outlets. The entire complex connects directly to the Lentor MRT Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL).
GuocoLand reports that over half of Lentor Modern’s mall space is already leased to anchors such as CS Fresh and ChildFirst. With this commercial component, residents have grocery, childcare, and dining needs handled within their own building.
As the earliest launch in Lentor Hills, Lentor Modern quickly reached 84% bookings on its first sales day. GuocoLand, with joint-venture partners, is active in additional nearby developments, underscoring its ongoing role in the area’s growth.
Lentor Hills Residences (598 units), co-developed by GuocoLand, Hong Leong Holdings, and TID, reached a 99% sell rate at about $2,099 psf. Meanwhile, the 533-unit Lentor Mansion launched last March and secured 75% of its units in the first weekend, with just under 20 homes left.
GuocoLand has more plans in Lentor. Lentor Central Residences, with 477 units in two towers, aims to launch in 1Q2025, further expanding quality living choices near transport links.
GuocoLand, with Hong Leong Holdings, is preparing a project at Upper Thomson Road (Parcel B) on a 344,700 sq ft plot. It will hold 941 apartments in five towers and include a portion of the original Upper Thomson Secondary School for a heritage element.
Dora Chng, GuocoLand’s Residential Director, remarks, “The interest in Lentor Modern and our other projects confirms that well-placed, premium condos remain sought after.” She adds that Lentor Central Residences should follow the same trend, thanks to proximity to the Lentor Modern mall and MRT.
