One Chuan Grove Project Details, Explained for Buyers

One Chuan Grove at a glance

Preliminary information from developer materials and press coverage; subject to change and final developer confirmation.

The confirmed details

Homes, blocks, unit types and sizes, land area, on-site amenities, MRT distance, launch dates, completion estimate and consultants are according to the ERA project highlights; the other items come from the preliminary project information.

What each detail means for you

99-year leasehold. Most new private condos in the OCR are leasehold. The lease begins from the date the land was sold, so it is worth asking at preview when the lease term started. A fresh lease generally makes financing simpler later, because banks and CPF consider remaining lease when assessing loans.

1,056 homes in 5 blocks on about 30,345 sqm. Combining two Government Land Sales plots into one development creates a large estate with a broad facility list. Four blocks of 27 storeys and one of 24, with parking in 2 basement levels, means many stacks and facings to choose from, and it also means, after completion, more neighbours sharing those facilities.

Layouts from 1-bedroom to 5-bedroom. A range this wide lets couples, young families and multi-generation households all shop in the same project. The tentative schedule is weighted towards 2-bedders (471 homes, about 581 to 710 sq ft) and 3-bedders (315 homes, about 807 to 1,001 sq ft), with a sizeable 240 four-bedders and 27 five-bedroom Luxury units with a private lift. There are only 3 one-bedroom homes, so singles should plan on a 2-bedroom. Our floor plans page explains what each type suits.

7 shops and a childcare centre on site. Everyday errands and childcare drop-off within the estate can save time on weekdays. Ask at the preview where the shops and the childcare centre sit relative to the blocks, since that affects foot traffic and noise for nearby stacks.

Schools nearby. The ERA project highlights name 4 primary schools within 1 km: CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel, Kuo Chuan Presbyterian, St. Gabriel's and Yangzheng. Australian International School is directly opposite. Treat the 1 km status as indicative and check it on OneMap once the exact address is out, because Primary One distances are measured from the address itself.

Outside Central Region. OCR projects are typically priced below city-fringe and core-central launches, and they often appeal to owner-occupiers, especially families upgrading from HDB flats nearby.

Circle Line access, about 250 m away. Lorong Chuan station sits between Serangoon (an interchange with the North East Line) and Bishan (an interchange with the North-South Line). For daily commuting, that makes a one-change journey possible to many parts of the island. See the location guide for more.

Completion estimated at end 2030. The ERA project highlights give an estimated completion of end 2030; the TOP date itself has not been announced. If you are timing a move around a lease expiry, a child's schooling or the sale of an HDB flat, plan around that estimate with a margin, and ask at the preview for the expected TOP and legal completion dates in the sales documents.

Details still waiting for confirmation

• Exact address. Needed for precise school and amenity distances.
• 1 km school status. The 4 schools are named, but whether a given unit falls within 1 km depends on the final address; verify on OneMap.
• Final unit mix and floor plans. The current schedule is tentative and subject to authorities' approval; the drawings are not out yet.
• TOP date. Only an estimated completion of end 2030 is given.
• Prices. Not released; see the price list page for the context analysts are using.

These items are normally released around the preview. Register on the floor plans page to receive them when they are published.

How to use these details when shortlisting

Put the confirmed facts side by side with your own requirements. If your non-negotiables are a train station within walking distance, a newer lease and strong facilities, One Chuan Grove matches on paper. If you need freehold tenure or an early move-in date, it may not. Treat the unconfirmed items as open questions rather than assumptions, and resolve them before you commit any money.
