The TEL is, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">by far, the best MRT line because it cuts across all other lines. So you can travel all around Singapore without driving. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eventually, when the line is entirely open, it will bring super connectivity to residents in the area.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She adds, \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With us (Lentor Modern) coming in with a mall and enhancing the area even further, Lentor is gaining new attention from people looking at buying homes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Challenging the concept of a \u2018prime location\u2019 in Singapore<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By 2030, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/mrt-stations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Singapore\u2019s rail network<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will span 360km, and 8 in 10 households will be within a 10-minute walk away from an MRT station.

Ms Chng says, \u201cWith the SMRT network being even more expansive, is the distance to the city centre still a huge factor? Does it really matter where you\u2019re staying? What&#8217;s considered prime district in Singapore since the MRT network is everywhere now?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The availability of amenities, proximity to schools and nature are also important factors that are considered by buyers, which Lentor Modern will bring to the area. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Balancing Lentor\u2019s development with greenery<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2016, the Lentor Forest was cleared to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/singapore\/environment\/two-green-plots-to-be-kept-in-30ha-secondary-forest-in-lentor-earmarked-for\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">make way for private housing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but there were calls from the community to preserve the estate\u2019s green lungs. Many residents enjoyed living near greenery, and it helped to cool the ambient temperature of the area. In the end, two green plots were preserved.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60157\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60157\" style=\"width: 1120px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentor-modern-facilities.jpg\" class=\"img-link media-img img-link media-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-60157\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentor-modern-facilities.jpg\" alt=\"facilities at lentor modern\" width=\"1120\" height=\"747\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-60157\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Facilities at Lentor Modern<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/reviews\/lentor-modern\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lentor Modern<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is bringing back a part of the area\u2019s natural landscape. \u201cWe have a very interesting concept behind how the facilities deck was designed. There was this Lentor Stream that used to run through the forest, and it was the main source of food and water for the community living here in the kampung days. So we want to pay tribute to the stream. That&#8217;s why our facilities deck is inspired by the Lentor Stream and comprises several water bodies adding up to more than 200m,\u201d says Ms Chng.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on the success of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/martin-modern\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Martin Modern<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/condos-apartments\/midtown-modern\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Midtown Modern<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which were largely greenery-inspired, Ms Chng adds, \u201cwe were convinced that nature, gardens and spaces for families are really important. So, we want to give this to them (buyers).\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was a sentiment echoed by respondents in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/content.knightfrank.com\/research\/2039\/documents\/en\/global-buyer-survey-2021-8382.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knight Frank\u2019s 2021 Global Buyer Survey<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Proximity to green space and good air quality were the most critical factors for Singaporeans in choosing the location of their property after Covid-19.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Lentor Modern setting the benchmark, we hope the other GLS sites in Lentor will also incorporate the neighbourhood\u2019s forest heritage into their landscapes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_60155\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-60155\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentorhills.jpeg\" class=\"img-link media-img img-link media-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-60155\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentorhills.jpeg\" alt=\"lentor hills estate\" width=\"1000\" height=\"738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentorhills.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/lentorhills-150x111.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-60155\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lentor Hillock Park and the private condos around it<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But beyond that, Lentor also has easy access to nature reserves.

The unit has everything they need &#8211; a wet and dry kitchen, and a big living and dining area so that they can host family and friends. The unit extends into a good-sized balcony which is an extension of the entertainment space. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe designed the buyer profile; if you have a large family and they come by every weekend, you will need this setup (in the showflat), especially if you come from the landed houses. The living room has a length of 5.7 metres, most inter-terrace is 6 metres, so they can feel like they are back at their old houses,\u201d says Ms Chng.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, Lentor Modern has sold around 50% of its 3 and 4-bedroom units, while the 1 and 2-bedroom units are fully taken up.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms Chng attributes this success to the groundwork they do to determine buyers\u2019 needs.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe design every development from the inside out, always from the user\u2019s perspective. We want the rooms to be a specific size, and the living room or kitchen to be a specific layout, and then we piece them together. We start with the space, and then we build up, so the units always feel very functional. Most people tell me when they walk into the unit, they feel like it\u2019s bigger.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She adds, \u201cWhen you see our development and walk through our showflat, you will feel that you can relate. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Our development quietly touches your heart, because we designed it for ourselves. If we love it and want to live in it, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ll also feel the same.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>What lies ahead for Lentor<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, the Lentor neighbourhood is on the cusp of change. On the one hand, it will be transformed into a mini \u201ccity centre\u201d with Lentor Modern. But on the other hand, it still has the charm of being a low-density private estate close to greenery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Ms Chng, as Lentor Modern is the first development to be built in Lentor under the GLS programme, it has a lot of potential to value-add to the location.
