About Woodlands Drive 17 EC (Plot 2)
Woodlands Drive 17 EC (Plot 2 / Parcel B / E10) is a marquee high-density Executive Condominium development situated along Woodlands Drive 17 in District 25. Awarded to Sim Lian Land Pte. Ltd. & Sim Lian Development Pte. Ltd. for $498.0 million ($608.79 psf ppr), this expansive 27,133.7 sqm land parcel yields approximately 750 to 760 premium residential apartments.
A major strategic advantage of Woodlands Drive 17 EC (Plot 2) is its regulatory status under the pre-May 2026 Government Land Sales (GLS) regime. As a grandfathered parcel, the project is completely exempt from the 10-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) restriction, retaining the standard 5-year MOP and 10-year full privatization schedule. This gives buyers superior capital mobility to cash out or upgrade five years ahead of new cooling measure projects.
Designed with a generous Gross Plot Ratio of 2.8 across high-rise residential towers, the development will feature Sim Lian's signature spatial efficiency with expansive 3-bedroom, 4-bedroom, and 5-bedroom layouts. Residents will enjoy extensive lifestyle facilities, including a 50m Olympic-length lap pool, a grand clubhouse, tennis court, gymnasium, and lush landscaped gardens.
Located within comfortable walking distance of Woodlands South MRT (TE3) on the Thomson-East Coast Line, residents enjoy direct access to Orchard Road, Shenton Way, and Marina Bay. The project is also just two train stops from the Woodlands North RTS Link terminus, providing swift 5-minute cross-border travel to Johor Bahru.
Adjacent to the integrated 1,800-bed Woodlands Health Campus (WHC), the development is surrounded by lifestyle nodes including Causeway Point, Woods Square, Vista Point, 888 Plaza, and established schools such as Innova Primary and Woodgrove Primary within 1km.
Eligible first-timer Singapore Citizen households can apply for up to $30,000 in CPF Housing Grants, while HDB upgraders benefit from automatic upfront ABSD remission and the Deferred Payment Scheme (DPS). Prospective buyers can review the EC buyer eligibility guide and calculate loan limits via our EC affordability calculator.
