Singapore’s private property market has seen record-breaking demand, with new launches selling out quickly despite rising prices. 

If you are considering Hillock Green, you are probably wondering:

“Is this a good time to buy? What makes this development stand out? Is it a smart investment or better for own-stay?”

Let’s break it down so you can make an informed decision:
​
Why Hillock Green?

Hillock Green is part of the larger transformation of the Lentor Hills estate under the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) Master Plan 2019.

Previously a quiet enclave, Lentor is rapidly evolving into an exclusive private residential district—offering a unique blend of nature, connectivity and growth potential.
​
Direct MRT access

Lentor Hills is a new neighbourhood conveniently located near the upcoming Lentor MRT station planned around an existing hillock.
​
Hillock Green is a 4-minute walk to Lentor MRT (via the Thomson-East Coast Line), offering seamless connectivity to the rest of the island, including Orchard, Novena and Marina Bay.

​
In fact, is is one of the few new launches offering true doorstep MRT convenience.
​
Major growth area

Lentor is undergoing a massive transformation, with new amenities, parks, and commercial spaces in the pipeline.

The URA has planned a residential development with a commercial component on the first storey just next to Lentor MRT station called Lentor Modern.

​Future enhancements will include pedestrian and cycling connectivity between Teachers’ Estate and Lentor MRT.

For your own stay
If you love quiet, green spaces but still want MRT connectivity, Hillock Green is perfect for families and professionals who value a peaceful environment.

For investment
The transformation of Lentor into a premium residential district suggests strong capital appreciation in the coming years.

Potential rental yield
Expected rental demand from professionals working in the Thomson, Novena and Orchard areas.

With future developments, rental rates may rise further, making it a solid long-term investment.
​
Who should consider buying?

Upgraders &  young families
Hillock Green is ideal for those moving from HDB flats in the nearby Ang Mo Kio estate or smaller condos.

Investors looking for future growth
This is a rare chance to enter a growing estate before prices go higher.

Getting in on the action early means you get to enjoy the first-mover advantage.

MRT-dependent buyers
If you prioritise seamless connectivity, Hillock Green is a great option.

Hillock Green is not just another new launch—it is part of a bigger transformation story.

If you are  thinking about buying, getting in early could mean securing a unit at the best possible price before the area matures.
