[New Launch] Zyon Grand Launching Soon! Direct MRT Link with Integrated Development Advantage

Zyon Grand: Twin 62-Storey Sky Landmarks

Co-developed by CDL and Mitsui Fudosan, with launch prices starting from just $2,689 psf, Singapore is set to welcome another towering residential landmark.

Zyon Grand, a brand-new integrated development jointly developed by City Developments Limited (CDL) and Mitsui Fudosan Asia, officially opened for preview on 8 October, with its official market launch scheduled for Saturday, 25 October.

Project Highlights: 62-Storey Twin-Tower Integrated Development with Direct MRT Connection

Situated along Kim Seng Road, Zyon Grand comprises two residential towers soaring 62 storeys high, making it a rare ultra-high-rise residential development in the Rest of Central Region (RCR).

The development features:

706 residential units, a 36-storey serviced apartment tower (offering over 350 long-stay units), and a retail podium—Zyon Galleria—housing F&B outlets, shops, a supermarket, and an early childhood development centre, with direct, sheltered access to Havelock MRT Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL).

Notably, this site (Zion Road Parcel A) is the first under the Government Land Sales (GLS) programme to incorporate a long-stay serviced apartment (SA2) component.

This pilot category mandates a minimum stay of three months, providing more flexible accommodation options to cater to long-term expatriates and visiting business professionals in Singapore.

Development Background: From Landmark to Lifestyle Hub

Zyon Grand occupies a 99-year leasehold site spanning 164,450 sq ft.

CDL and Mitsui Fudosan jointly clinched the site for $1.107 billion (translating to a land rate of $1,202 psf per plot ratio) as the sole bidder.

The architectural design is led by renowned Japanese architectural firm Nikken Sekkei in collaboration with local practice ADDP Architects—the same powerhouse design team behind CDL's Newport Residences in Tanjong Pagar.

The building's façade showcases sleek, curvilinear wave forms that echo the urban rhythms of the nearby Singapore River, marrying artistic elegance with futuristic appeal.

Boasting a prime city-fringe address, Zyon Grand holds tremendous appeal for buyers seeking the convenience of core urban living alongside flexible entry price points.

Unit Mix and Pricing: Accessible Entry to Bespoke Luxury

Residential units at Zyon Grand range from 1-bedroom + study to palatial 5-bedroom luxury configurations, with sizes ranging from 474 to 1,819 sq ft.

Capping the development are two exclusive single-level 5-bedroom penthouses, spanning 2,659 sq ft and 2,756 sq ft respectively.

Unit Distribution:

1-Bedroom to 3-Bedroom units: Account for 83% of the total units

4-Bedroom and 5-Bedroom units: Account for 17%, all equipped with private lifts and situated from the 44th to 61st storeys

Price Guide:

1-Bedroom + Study: From $1.298M ($2,738 psf)

2-Bedroom: From $1.468M ($2,729 psf)

3-Bedroom: From $2.2M ($2,689 psf)

4-Bedroom: From $3.968M ($2,792 psf)

5-Bedroom: From $5.988M ($3,292 psf)

All units come fitted with premium designer appliances: kitchens feature V-Zug appliances, Liebherr refrigerators, and De Dietrich washer-dryers; bathrooms are appointed with Hansgrohe sanitary fittings; while kitchens and bathrooms boast customizable magnetic modular storage systems by Corten Interior Solutions, seamlessly combining aesthetics with functional efficiency.

Competitive Pricing: A More Attractively Priced Opportunity

The Kim Seng Road precinct has already witnessed two major blockbuster launches this year:

Promenade Peak: Starting from $2,679 psf, selling 54% over its launch weekend at an average of $3,018 psf;

River Green: Starting from $2,759 psf, selling 88% over its launch weekend and now close to 89% sold at an average of $3,131 psf.

In comparison, Zyon Grand's starting price of $2,689 psf stands out as distinctly competitive.

Zyon Grand's pricing represents a strategic move within the submarket—coming in lower than surrounding transacted averages while capturing genuine pent-up demand from prospective buyers who missed out on their preferred units at Promenade Peak and River Green.

Market Momentum: Strong Demand Despite Over 1,800 Units Launched Across Three Projects

Even with over 1,826 new homes launched in the River Valley enclave within just three months, market analysts maintain that there are no signs of market saturation: new launch supply in this district remains far below that of estates like Lentor or Potong Pasir, while neighbouring projects like Irwell Hill Residences and The Avenir are virtually fully sold. This underscores that buyer demand remains exceptionally resilient.

Furthermore, Zyon Grand is an integrated development featuring a commercial podium and direct MRT connectivity. Benchmark integrated launches such as The Reserve Residences and Lentor Modern have similarly posted stellar sales performances underpinned by their direct transport links and comprehensive amenities.

Target Buyers: From HDB Upgraders to Core Central Region Families

Zyon Grand's location and transport connectivity will appeal to a well-diversified demographic of both owner-occupiers and investors.

For Investors: The 1-bedroom + study units start from just $1.298M, offering an accessible entry threshold. Taking neighbouring Rivière’s 1-bedroom rental rate ($5,200/month) as a benchmark, prospective gross rental yields could approach 5%.

For HDB Upgraders: With 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units starting from $1.468M to $2.2M, the entry barrier is very manageable for owners cashing out of million-dollar HDB flats in nearby Bukit Merah and Queenstown.

Many of these sellers possess ample equity to upgrade directly into a 3-bedroom unit at Zyon Grand. For right-sizers and families from prime central districts: the 4- and 5-bedroom layouts spanning over 1,400 sq ft will strongly appeal to multi-generational families looking to move out of older condominiums in River Valley.

Serviced Apartments: Complementary, Not Competing

The SA2 serviced apartments within Zyon Grand will complement rather than compete directly with the private residential units.

The long-stay serviced apartments cater to more flexible lease terms (3 to 12 months), tailored primarily to short-term expatriates, mobile business professionals, and corporate tenants; in contrast, the residential units attract long-term owner-occupiers and conventional buy-to-let investors.

These serviced suites offer dedicated concierge and housekeeping services, complete designer furnishings, and all-inclusive utilities, providing a true turn-key living experience designed for multinational executives on mid-to-long-term secondments.

With sweeping 240-metre panoramic skyline vistas, direct sheltered MRT connectivity, vibrant integrated amenities, and compelling launch pricing, Zyon Grand stands out as one of the most anticipated RCR new launches of the year.

Through its architectural scale, visionary design, and transit-oriented convenience, the development is poised to redefine urban living along Kim Seng Road.

Amid sustained market momentum in the fourth quarter, this 62-storey vertical city is not merely a stunning architectural icon, but a masterclass in the future of integrated city-centre living.
