Lentor Hills & Upper Thomson
District 26 has been the most actively developed pocket in Singapore over the last few years. The Lentor Hills estate went from a single MRT station to a full residential precinct in roughly four launch cycles, and the land rates paid across those cycles are public — which makes it one of the few places where you can judge a launch price against evidence rather than sentiment.
What actually matters here
- Lentor Gardens Residences secured its land at $920 psf ppr — the cheapest rate of the entire Lentor cycle. That single number is the strongest value argument anywhere in the district.
- The green frontage is the scarce part: Lower Peirce Reservoir, Thomson Nature Park and Lentor Hillock Park bound the estate, and reservoir-facing stacks cannot be replicated by a later launch.
- Buyers here are overwhelmingly local — 91% of Lentor Gardens Residences’ launch-day buyers were Singaporean, and 82% took two- or three-bedroom units.
Transport
- Lentor MRT on the Thomson–East Coast Line, with Lentor Modern’s 90,000 sq ft mall above it
- Springleaf and Mayflower stations extend the corridor north and south
Schools nearby
- CHIJ St Nicholas Girls’ School
- Anderson Primary School
- Presbyterian High School

School proximity affects Primary One registration priority. Confirm distances against the MOE school finder before you buy on this basis — the 1 km boundary is measured door to door, not by district.
