Woodlands Drive 17 EC: Wynwood Grand (CDL) and Sim Lian's Second Site, Land Prices, Launch Timing and Rules

Woodlands Drive 17 EC: CDL's 430-unit Wynwood Grand targets a 1Q2027 launch; Sim Lian's second plot (about 560 units) set an S$794 psf ppr EC land record.

"Woodlands Drive 17 EC" is two separate executive condo sites near Woodlands South MRT. CDL won the first in August 2025 and plans the 430-unit Wynwood Grand for a 1Q2027 launch. Sim Lian won the second, for about 560 units, in January 2026. As of 29 September 2026, neither has launched or published prices.

Updated 29 September 2026. An earlier version of this page, written in May 2026, treated Woodlands Drive 17 as one EC with an unannounced developer, placed it beside Woodlands MRT and Causeway Point, and gave estimated prices of S$1,100 to S$1,250 psf. Those claims were wrong or unsourced and have been removed.

Sources: EdgeProp tender reports (5 August 2025, via Yahoo; 13 January 2026); HDB final tender result releases (25 August 2025; 19 January 2026); EdgeProp on CDL's 1Q2026 update (May 2026) and CDL's 1H2026 results (13 August 2026, via Yahoo); EdgeProp new-launch listing for Wynwood Grand.

The project name "Wynwood Grand" comes from EdgeProp's new-launch listing, which places it at Woodlands Drive 17 with CDL Divine Pte Ltd as developer and 430 units. EdgeProp's coverage of CDL's 1H2026 results (13 August 2026) names Wynwood Grand among CDL's EC launches targeted for 1Q2027. The same listing gives an expected TOP of Q1 2030; we have not seen that date from CDL.

We recomputed both land rates: S$360.9 million ÷ 461,259 sq ft = S$782 psf ppr, and S$484 million ÷ 609,867 sq ft = S$794 psf ppr.

Where exactly is Woodlands Drive 17?

  • District: Woodlands Drive 17 postal codes start with 73, which is postal District 25 (Kranji, Woodgrove) on the SingPost list.
  • MRT: Woodlands South station (TE3) on the Thomson-East Coast Line is at 30 Woodlands Drive 17 (OneMap, postal code 737741). EdgeProp described CDL's site as a five-minute walk from it, and Sim Lian's as close to it. Woodlands South is one stop from Woodlands (NS9/TE2), the North-South Line interchange.
  • Not next to Woodlands MRT or Causeway Point. Woodlands interchange station and Causeway Point are about 1.1 km to 1.3 km in a straight line from Woodlands South station (our measurement from OneMap coordinates). The earlier version of this page said the site was within 200 metres of Woodlands MRT and a three-minute walk from Causeway Point. That was wrong.
  • Nearby plans: EdgeProp noted that Woodlands South is two stops from Woodlands North, where the Johor Bahru-Singapore RTS Link will connect, and that the area is near Woodlands Health Campus.

When will the Woodlands Drive 17 ECs launch?

ProjectReported timing15 months after award (our estimate)
Wynwood Grand (CDL)1Q2027, CDL target (EdgeProp, May 2026 and 13 August 2026)November 2026
Sim Lian plot"Late 2026 or early 2027" (EdgeProp, 13 January 2026)April 2027

SG Properties estimate: award month plus 15 months. EdgeProp's 5 August 2025 report, quoting Eugene Lim of ERA, refers to a "15-month wait-out period" after the land award before an EC can be launched. These are timing guides, not launch dates. No showflat date, unit mix or price list has been published by either developer as of 29 September 2026. Dates on agent websites are not confirmed by the developers.

What prices have analysts suggested?

No prices have been released. These are analysts' views at the time of each tender, not SG Properties forecasts:

Which EC rules apply to the Woodlands Drive 17 ECs?

Both tenders closed before 8 May 2026, so both projects keep the older EC rules. The government's new rules apply only to "EC land parcels with tenders closing on or after May 8" (EdgeProp, 8 May 2026). CDL said the May changes "will not affect" its two EC projects (EdgeProp, May 2026).

Household income ceilingS$16,000 a monthS$16,000, or S$18,000 for sites whose tender closes on or after 24 August 2026

Eligible first-timer families may also apply for the EC CPF Housing Grant, up to S$30,000 for households earning S$10,000 or less a month; the Enhanced CPF Housing Grant does not apply to ECs. See HDB's EC CPF Housing Grant page and our guide to the new EC rules.
