New Condo Launches in 2025: 24 Private Residences, plus 3 EC Projects to Debut!

New year, new launches, and new opportunities to find your dream home.

Following a lull in the earlier months of 2024, November saw no fewer than six new private residential developments hitting the market all at once. These include The Collective at One Sophia, Chuan Park, Emerald of Katong, Union Square Residences, Nava Grove, and Novo Place (Executive Condominium) – all of which saw heathy take-up rates on their respective launch weekends.

However, despite the strong demand exhibited by condo-seekers, it’s still early days as to whether such a level of interest is sustainable next year. Still, in any case, prospective private home buyers in Singapore will definitely have more new launches to look forward to as 2025 unfolds.

What are the new private home launches coming in 2025?

With 24 new private home developments, as well as three EC projects, anticipated to launch next year, 2025 is already shaping up to be a year of opportunity for owners and investors alike.

Below, a quick summary of these upcoming launches, which will bring close to 11,000 new private homes and 2,000 ECs to the market:

Core Central Region (CCR) launches in 2025

By and large, 2024 was a subdued year for CCR launches. In the first nine months of the year, developers launched just 313 new private homes in Singapore’s city core – a stark contrast to the 941 units in the RCR and 1,968 units in the OCR.

However, a turnaround is on the cards in 2025, with approximately 3,600 units across nine CCR launches projected for the full year.

Near Singapore’s Central Business District (CBD) and Marina Bay, homebuyers can expect to see the launch of W Residences – Marina View, as well as a yet-unnamed development at Marina Gardens Lane.

W Residences – Marina View is a premium development offering some 680 residences with unparalleled connectivity to three major expressways (Marina Coastal Expressway, Ayer Rajah Expressway, and Central Expressway) and multiple MRT stations (Shenton Way, Downtown, Marina Bay, Tanjong Pagar, Bayfront).

On the other hand, the upcoming launch at Marina Gardens Lane will be the first of its kind, being a 790-unit development close to Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay. Moreover, its proximity to the future Marina South MRT station promises great convenience for future residents.

Further away from the CBD, homebuyers can look forward to several small to mid-sized launches at four sites. These include River Valley Green (380 units), Holland Drive (680 units), Orchard Boulevard (280 units), and Aurea (188 units).

River Valley Green’s future launch is within reach of Great World MRT station and Great World City shopping centre, while also possessing strong rental prospects due to its CCR location. Meanwhile, Holland Drive’s location in District 10 makes it an appealing option for condo-seekers who prize proximity to both the city core and green spaces in Singapore.

Though it comprises just 280 units, the upcoming launch at Orchard Boulevard is big on convenience, as it has a direct link to Orchard Boulevard MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line. Not to mention, it is near the Orchard Road shopping belt which would give future residents access to a multitude of retail, dining and entertainment options.

Situated at the site of the former Golden Mile Complex, Aurea follows in the footsteps of its predecessor by offering residents the unique opportunity to live, work, and play at Beach Road. Besides providing a fresh supply of 188 new private homes to the area, Aurea’s launch will also be joined by an array of new retail shops, healthcare facilities and offices at The Golden Mile – a sister development for commercial use.

Rest of Central Region (RCR) launches in 2025

Not unlike the CCR, the RCR will see a total of nine projects making their debut in 2025. Collectively, these new launches will bring a fresh supply of 3,790 units to city fringe locations, such as Toa Payoh, Queenstown, and River Valley.

Notably, The Orie will make its debut in January, marking Toa Payoh’s first new launch in almost ten years since Gem Residences in 2015. Consequently, prospective buyers can anticipate stiff competition during The Orie’s launch, stemming from a potent combination of pent-up demand and limited supply in the neighbourhood.

Moreover, this future 777-unit development will be sited along Toa Payoh Lorong 1, which places it in close proximity of Braddell MRT station, several food centres, and notable educational institutions, including Pei Chun Public School and CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh).

Over in Queenstown, condo-seekers can look ahead to a future mid-sized development at Margaret Drive, with a possible launch in 3Q 2025.

Said project is expected to feature a total of 460 units and boasts attractive attributes. These include its close proximity to Queenstown MRT station, Queenstown Public Library, as well as Margaret Drive Hawker Centre. Additionally, it lies within a 1km radius of Queenstown Primary School and Queensway Secondary School.

Similarly, 2025 is shaping up to be a thriving year for the River Valley precinct – with not one, but two new launches situated at Zion Road. Of these two projects, one (Zion Road – Parcel A) is on track for a 2Q 2025 launch and is earmarked for development as a pilot site for long-stay serviced apartments, while the other (Zion Road – Parcel B) could make its debut in 3Q 2025 with 610 private homes in total.

Outside Central Region (OCR) launches in 2025

While the OCR will have fewer launches than other regions, with only six private residential projects in 2025, it is still expected to deliver a comparable total of approximately 3,600 new homes. These projects are located in popular OCR locales, including Tampines, Clementi, Lentor, and Upper Thomson.

In particular, Parktown Residence stands out as the largest OCR project amongst next year’s upcoming launches. Comprised of 1,193 units, this mega-development in Tampines will be developed as an integrated project, giving residents convenient access to a bus interchange, community club, eateries, as well as the future Tampines North MRT Station on the Cross-Island Line.

Over at Clementi, Elta – a 501-unit, 99-year development – is slated for a first quarter launch. The area has previously seen a string of successful launches with Clavon and Clement Canopy achieving over 70% take-up rates on launch day. History could repeat, given Elta’s proximity to a well-rounded mix of reputable schools (e.g. Nan Hua High School, NUS High School of Mathematics and Science), convenient amenities (e.g. Clementi Mall, Clementi 448 Market & Food Centre), and transport nodes (e.g. Clementi MRT station).

Up North, Lentor will be seeing its sixth new launch in Lentor Central Residences. Since 2022, the private residential enclave has welcomed Lentor Modern, Lentor Hills Residences, Hillock Green, Lentoria, and Lentor Mansion, all of which have seen varying levels of success during their respective launches.

As of November 2024, most of the abovementioned developments have achieved solid take-up rates ranging from 65% to 98%, with Lentor Modern being fully sold. Hence, given this combination of strong demand and limited remaining stock, there’s a strong likelihood that future homes at Lentor Central Residences will also attract significant interest.

Meanwhile, 2Q 2025 could mark the launch of a large 940-unit development at Upper Thomson Road. The site of this upcoming condo project sits within walking distance of Springleaf MRT station, and is also closely located to MacRitchie Reservoir. This means that future residents can enjoy the best of both worlds: efficient transport connectivity to urban areas, as well as proximity to green spaces nearby.

Executive Condominium launches for 2025

In contrast, 2025 is expected to bring a surge in EC supply, with approximately 2,030 units across three launches – Aurelle of Tampines (760 units), Plantation Close (560 units), and Jalan Loyang Besar (710 units). This could also potentially mark the highest number of EC dwellings to be launched in a year since 2014, when 2,505 units made their debut.

Aurelle of Tampines is situated near the upcoming Tampines North MRT station, as well as Tenet, a popular EC that sold 72% of its units on launch day. Tenet’s performance was largely thanks to its location in a well-established town – an advantage that Aurelle could also benefit from.

Likewise, both future ECs at Plantation Close and Jalan Loyang Besar hold appeal as well. The Plantation Close EC is located within Tengah, which is envisioned to be developed as a futuristic new town under URA’s West Region Master Plan. As for the future EC at Jalan Loyang Besar, it is within reach of notable amenities including Pasir Ris Park and Downtown East shopping mall, while also being the first new EC in Pasir Ris since 2012.

In Closing

With new projects popping up all across the island, 2025 is looking to be buyers looking for private homes or ECs that suit their specific needs, budgets, and preferences. Whether it’s premium mixed-use developments in the heart of the city or cost-effective homes in suburban Singapore, there’s something for everyone.
