J’den sales gallery draws over 7,000 visitors on preview weekend

for sale The pent-up demand for residential properties at Jurong Gateway is evident with over 7,000 visitors on the first weekend of J’den’s public preview. Located in the heart of the burgeoning JLD, J’den offers units from one-bedroom to four bedrooms. Prices start from $2,100 psf, and strong growth potential is underpinned by the four MRT lines that will connect JLD to CBD, Jurong Innovation District, one-north and several educational hubs within a 30-minute train ride. With such a compelling location, amenities and value proposition, J’den is likely to be one of the top-selling projects this year.

At 5pm on Sunday, Oct 29th, the launch of CapitaLand Development’s J’den drew an overwhelming response with over 7,000 visitors – a testament to the pent-up interest in private residential launches in Jurong Gateway, the vibrant heart of Jurong Lake District, as well as the exceptional product attributes of J’den.

Justin Kwek, deputy CEO of OrangeTee & Tie, noted that “This strong turnout is also a testament to consumers’ confidence in the developer’s reputation and the strong interest in integrated developments. It’s one of the largest preview crowds over the first weekend this year.”

With a 40 storey tower standing at 150m, J’den is set to be the tallest residential tower and the first mixed-use development in the heart of Jurong Lake District. As the first new launch in Jurong Gateway in 10 years, the 368 units at J’den are a mix of one-bedroom to four-bedroom premium, with sizes from 527 to 1,485 sq ft.

Mark Yip, CEO of Huttons Asia, comments, “JLD is set to transform into the largest mixed-use business and world-class sustainability district outside the Central Area. The growth potential is immense as the plans for JLD take shape.” He goes on to add that the Jurong Region Line and Cross Island Line will be completed within the next 13 years, connecting JLD to nearby amenities such as the CBD, Jurong Innovation District, one-north and education hubs within a 30-minute train ride.

According to Marcus Chu, CEO of ERA Singapore, among the numerous prospective buyers are young urbanites keen on the two-, three- and four- bedroom units. With prices starting from $2,100 psf, these buyers see J’den as offering a strong value proposition for its location.

Ismail Gafoor, CEO of PropNex remarks that this pent-up demand is not surprising given that the last new launch was more than 10 years ago – when the 738-unit J Gateway hit the market. He believes that J’den will have a strong response from buyers and could likely be one of the top-selling projects this year in terms of take-up rate.

URA’s plan for Jurong entails creating an innovation district, new neighbourhoods, parks and a central business district. The Jurong Transformation Programme will create over 1,000 hectares of commercial, residential, and industrial space. Tengah Plantation EC, one of the many projects, will feature housing, park, transportation and other amenities. Residents and visitors alike will be able to enjoy the convenience of a comprehensive public transport system, greenery parks, along with retail and F&B options.

With plenty of amenities, strong growth potential and a compelling value proposition, J’den is likely to be one of the top-selling projects this year. Sales bookings for J’den will start on Saturday, Nov 11.
