Lush Acres

Lush Acres at Fernvale Close serves as a fantastic entry point into the highly sought-after Sengkang West residential enclave. As the only Executive Condominium (EC) in this immediate waterfront cluster, it offers a distinct, low-density alternative to its fully private neighbours such as Rivertrees Residences. Or H20 Residences and Riverbank @ Fernvale

Or the amazing Sengkang Grand Residences. Completed in 2016, it is celebrated for its unique balcony entrance concepts and heavy emphasis on green, spacious living.

Key project facts

• Type & tenure: Executive Condominium (EC) on a 99-year leasehold tenure (starting from 2013). It has already fulfilled its Minimum Occupation Period (MOP).

• Completion & scale: Completed in 2016. It stands out in the cluster for its low-density configuration, offering just 380 residential units across four towers (rising up to 22 and 25 storeys).

• Developer: Developed by Verspring Properties Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of the highly reputable City Developments Limited (CDL).

Location and connectivity

• Address & setting: Situated at 1, 3, 5, and 7 Fernvale Close. It sits comfortably back from the main roads, offering a tranquil, resort-like atmosphere right near the edge of the Punggol Reservoir.

• LRT/MRT access: It is highly walkable (just under 5 minutes) to Layar LRT station, which seamlessly connects residents to the main Sengkang MRT (North East Line) and bus interchange in just a few stops.

• Road links: Drivers enjoy fast access to Sengkang East Way and Sengkang West Way, linking directly to the Tampines Expressway (TPE) and the Central Expressway (CTE).

Layouts and design

• Unit mix: Designed strictly with families in mind, completely bypassing 1- and 2-bedroom units. The project exclusively features 3-bedroom (915 to 1,399 sq ft), 4-bedroom (1,238 to 1,690 sq ft), and sprawling 5-bedroom layouts (1,507 to 1,722 sq ft).

• Design approach: CDL introduced a unique “Balcony Entrance Concept” for many units here, mimicking the arrival experience of a landed home. The blocks are configured as point blocks with only four units per floor, maximizing privacy and cross-ventilation.

• Positioning: It directly targets HDB upgraders, large multi-generational families, and nature lovers who prioritize internal living space and exclusivity over high-density mega-projects.

Facilities and lifestyle

• Facilities: The centrepiece is a spectacular, first-of-its-kind 100-metre lap pool. It also features a sculptural clubhouse, a tennis court, and a unique “Agri-Cube” climate-controlled hydroponic farm for residents to grow their own organic crops.

• Nearby amenities: Daily conveniences are fully sorted. The Seletar Mall (with its NTUC FairPrice Finest and Shaw Theatres) and Fernvale Point are just a short stroll or one LRT stop away.

• Schools: Excellent for young families, positioned within 1km of popular primary schools like Fern Green Primary School, Sengkang Green Primary School, and Fernvale Primary School.

Market and buyer appeal

• Resale positioning: Lush Acres trades incredibly well in the resale market, typically hovering in the $1,250 to $1,450 PSF range. Because it is an EC, it often offers a slightly more accessible quantum for 3- and 4-bedroom units compared to the fully private condos right next door.

• Rental demand: Steady and reliable. Its proximity to the Seletar Aerospace Park and the Sengkang West industrial clusters provides a solid tenant pool of white-collar professionals and engineers.

• Key appeal: Low-Density Family Living. Buyers flock to Lush Acres because it provides massive family-sized layouts, extreme privacy with just 380 units, and the backing of a premier developer, all while sharing the exact same neighborhood conveniences as its private condo peers.
