Fifteen Years in the Making
The last time Bukit Panjang saw a new EC, the Downtown Line hadn't opened. Hillion Mall didn't exist. What followed was fifteen years of quiet growth.
In 2011, Blossom Residences marked the last Executive Condominium launch in Bukit Panjang. Since then, the district has been quietly transformed — with the Downtown Line's arrival, the Bukit Panjang Integrated Transport Hub, and Chestnut Nature Park reshaping daily life around it. District 23's EC resale prices have climbed 64.7% — from $887 to $1,461 psf since 4Q2020. Fifteen years on, Solano Grand finally arrives — timed not for what's coming, but for what's already here.
Why Solano Grand
The site was secured in Aug 2025 for S$252.9M. Preview is targeted for Q1 2027 (subject to approval of sale).
So why the fierce bidding? Because CDL knows this is the only new EC Bukit Panjang will see this generation — and demand from HDB upgraders here hasn't had a fresh outlet since Blossom Residences sold out in 2011.

5 developers contested the site
CDL is doubling down on the EC market — after Copen Grand and Lumina Grand, it picked up both this site and Wynwood Grand in Woodlands in Aug 2025. When Singapore's most established EC developer keeps buying, it says something about where this market is heading.
The EC Advantage
Private condominium living,
at a subsidised entry price.
The Final Five
One of the Last.
One of the Most Exclusive.
Exclusive Advantages
5-Year MOP, Not 10
Future ECs will require a 10-year Minimum Occupation Period. At Solano Grand, owners can sell or rent out their home after just 5 years.
Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS)
Pay 20% upfront, with the balance payable only upon TOP. Continue staying in your current home while your new one is being built.
Full Privatisation in Year 10
Becomes fully private in its 10th year, allowing resale to foreign buyers and expanding the potential buyer pool.
A Rare Opportunity That Will Not Be Repeated
Once these final five ECs are sold, every future Executive Condominium will be launched under the new rules. Solano Grand isn't just another EC — it's one of the last opportunities to secure the classic EC advantages before they disappear.
Priced below private
New ECs launch meaningfully below comparable private condos — while D23's own EC resale market has climbed 64.7% in four years. The gap is the opportunity.
Full condo facilities
Pools, gym, function rooms, landscaped grounds — an EC is built and finished by a private developer. Here, that developer is CDL, one of Singapore's most established names.
Privatisation runway
After the 5-year MOP an EC can be sold on the open market to citizens and PRs, and from year 10 it is fully privatised. Blossom Residences' owners are living that story now.

Why Now
You're not buying into today's Bukit Panjang.
You're buying into fifteen years of catch-up demand.
By the time Solano Grand reaches TOP, roughly 2,344 HDB flats across Bukit Panjang, Choa Chu Kang and Bukit Batok will have crossed their Minimum Occupation Period — the largest wave of EC-eligible upgraders this district has seen since 2016. Solano Grand arrives directly in its path, already connected to the Downtown Line and steps from Hillion Mall's Integrated Transport Hub.
The best time to answer fifteen years of demand is the moment it finally has somewhere to go. Solano Grand is that address.
