Condo Review

Hillock Green is going to be one of many new private properties being built within this region and there are concerns about whether its capital appreciation would be better than other projects in Singapore.

Over the next few years, we can expect more new launch private property around this region. While this may affect property growth valuation, we can still expect a better standard of living and steady growth within this region.

Thought consensus of the public

More buyers are focused on hotter projects like J'Den which launch during the same weekend. This can affect Hillock Green's appeal but buyers who prefer the Central location would prefer Hillock Green.

Accessibility

Only a 3- to 5-minute walk to Lentor MRT and quick access to Seletar Expressway.

Design

Modern and classy. If you love spacious homes, there are 44 units with a double volume ceiling of 5.9m.

Unit Size

The average 2 bedder size in Hillock Green is smaller coming in at 624 and 958 sq ft. Note that the average 2 bedder is roughly 750 to 1,000 sq ft.

Efficiency Layout

Great use of efficiency with a small layout

Amenities

Hillock Green will be located beside Lentor Modern which is just a 3~5 minutes walking distance.

Uniqueness

Hillock Green doesn't have much "Wow" factor that would keep buyers excited. It's a great project following many other successful projects.

Developer

Renowned developer and having 3 different developers to support the business is a great indicator

Traffic

With multiple foreseeable large-scale private property projects in Lentor, we may face traffic issue in the near future.

Public Transport

Within 3 ~ 5 min walking distance from Lentor MRT is definitely a key selling point of this project.

Schools

Many schools available within the area such as CHIJ St Nicholas Girl’s School, Anderson Primary School, and Presbyterian High School

Price Point

TBA

Risk Factors

We can expect more private properties to be developed within Lentor over the next few years. Depending on its valuation, if land parcels are sold at lower prices, we may see the risk of a lower growth rate.

However, it's safe to know that Lentor is well monopolized by GuocoLand which is a safe note that they wouldn't want their property prices to devalue.

Investment Opportunity

There are better projects that have higher investment opportunities and Hillock Green is a property catered towards ownstay.
