Lucerne Grand Review: Is It Worth Buying?

Lucerne Grand (琉森嘉园) is a new leasehold residential development with commercial units on the first floor, located at 30, 32, 34, 36, 38 Lakeside Drive in District D22. Developed by CDL Polaris Properties Pte Ltd, this project offers 570 units.

Verdict: Who is Lucerne Grand For?

Lucerne Grand appears to be well-suited for buyers looking for a large-scale new launch development in District 22, with the convenience of integrated commercial spaces. Its leasehold tenure, commencing from 8 Sep 2025, means buyers will get a fresh 99-year lease. With an Expected TOP of 2031-12-06, it offers a longer runway for completion, which can be advantageous for financial planning. The project's location in the Boon Lay / Jurong / Tuas area might appeal to those working in the Western part of Singapore or those looking for a potentially more affordable entry point into the new launch market compared to more central districts.

However, those seeking freehold tenure or a quicker move-in date might need to look elsewhere. The current lack of price information also makes it challenging to assess its value proposition fully at this stage.

Honest Pros

• Fresh 99-Year Leasehold: The lease starts from 8 Sep 2025, providing a full 99-year tenure from an upcoming date.
• Integrated Commercial Component: Having commercial units on the first floor provides convenience for residents, potentially offering F&B or retail options right at their doorstep.
• Large Project Scale: With 570 units, Lucerne Grand is a significant development, which can often translate to a wider range of facilities and a vibrant community.
• Reputable Developer: CDL Polaris Properties Pte Ltd is the developer.

Honest Cons

• Longer Development Timeline: With an Expected TOP of 2031-12-06, buyers will need to wait several years for completion.
• No Pricing Information Available Yet: As of now, specific pricing details and PSF are on request, making it difficult to fully evaluate its investment potential or compare it against other options. All 570 units are currently available.
• Leasehold Tenure: While it's a fresh lease, some buyers may still prefer freehold properties for their perceived long-term value.
• District 22 Location: While offering potential affordability, the D22 location in Boon Lay / Jurong / Tuas might be considered less central compared to other districts, potentially impacting commute times for some.
