Dear Grand Dunman, from the moment my family and I stepped into your showflat, we knew you weren’t just another run-of-the-mill condo development.
Our friends first started bringing you up when you were just a newly launched mega-development in District 15. They told us that you had sold 550 of 1,008 units at an average price of $2,500 per sq ft (PSF) over your launch weekend in November 2024.
They sold us on your strategic location, modern architectural design, and luxurious amenities. And we had to find out more about you, Grand Dunman.

Grand Dunman Condo Info and Facilities
We did some internet sleuthing and were impressed by what we found. You’re an upscale 99-year leasehold residential development by SingHaiyi Group and CSC Land, trusted names with proven track records. They are both Conquas Band 1 Developers – the highest quality band awarded by Singapore’s Building and Construction Authority (BCA) – and recognised for their high-quality builds and delivery standards.
You have even been awarded the BCA Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy award and have a target completion date for end-2028 (though you’ll be ready to move in as early as 2026).
Your modern architectural and landscape design prioritises livability and wellness. From the meandering pathways which lead residents on journeys of exploration and discovery to the diverse recreational spaces, you thoughtfully cater to the various interests and preferences of your residents.
Condo facilities include serene pocket gardens, the Wellness Lawn, the Tai Chi Deck, a 50m Lap Pool, Aqua Deck, Jacuzzi pods, and a one-of-a-kind Hydro Massage Pool. With all these luxurious amenities that serve to encourage active living and relaxation, we knew we had to meet you.
Close to Choice Schools and Amenities
You see, my family and I have been searching. Not just for square footage, but for a place that grows with us. Somewhere we can drop the kids off at school without a mad morning rush. Where my elderly parents, husband, and I can enjoy evening strolls along the Park Connector or grab a meal with friends at Old Airport Road Hawker Centre’s endless food options.
We love how the kids have the option of attending many reputable schools in the neighbourhood. There’s Kong Hwa School (1km from the property and the closest to Grand Dunman) and there’s Haig Girls’ School and Tanjong Katong Primary School, which are a five-minute drive away.
And when it’s time for the children to attend Secondary school, Dunman High, Chung Cheng High (Main), and Tanjong Katong Secondary School are just some of the many choices they have.
Nearby Malls and Plenty of Dining Options
Grand Dunman is nestled like a secret between the old-world charm of Katong and the endless parade of malls that are ready to fulfil everyday needs. Kallang Wave Mall, Suntec City, PLQ Mall, SingPost Centre, Paya Lebar Square and especially Marina Central are all within a seven-minute drive from Grand Dunman.
Plus, Joo Chiat’s and Katong’s trendy cafes, bars, and restaurants are a short 10-minute bus ride away. Being with you means truly having the best of both worlds when it comes to food and existing dining options.
Outdoor Recreational Activities, Park Connector at Your Doorstep
My family and I love a romantic stroll by the water. The Geylang Park Connector Network (PCN) at Grand Dunman’s doorstep allows for just that. Following the pathway, we can walk by the water and follow the Geylang River to the Kallang Basin and Kallang Sports Hub, past the Marina Barrage and all the way to Marina Bay Waterfront Promenade.
A sunset stroll by the sea is also an option. Grand Dunman is just a 10-minute drive or 15-minute cycle from East Coast Park. Many active weekends can be spent cycling, rollerblading, or engaging in various water sports such as kayaking, windsurfing, and wakeboarding.
We can talk about the future too. The upcoming Long Island project will see 800ha of reclaimed land built along the current East Coast shoreline and provide recreational upgrades. Aside from an enclosed freshwater reservoir, there will be 20km of new coastal and reservoir parks to enjoy.
2-Minute Walk to Dakota MRT, Proximity to City Centre
But really, you had us at “two minutes walk to Dakota MRT station”. From the Circle Line station, Marina Bay and the CBD are just 5 stops away.
It’s a dream come true to be so closely connected to the wider MRT network. Honestly, no one wants to run for the bus every morning just to hop onto a crowded train as part of their daily work commute.
And because of your excellent city fringe location, it’s sometimes even faster to get to the city centre via public transport. But getting around the island is easy for drivers, thanks to the nearby Nicoll Highway, Pan Island Expressway (PIE) and East Coast Parkway (ECP).
You allow us to be not too far from the city’s pulse and all the conveniences it offers, yet not so close that you forget what it’s like to enjoy the comfort of quiet. I had to meet you because I wondered if we were a match that was too good to be true.
So I made an online appointment via the Grand Dunman website to visit the showroom located at 1039 Eunos Avenue 3.
Premium Design and Finishes: Gessi, Kohler, Franke, and Miele
I have to admit, I don’t usually fall this fast for a property. I’ve walked through dozens of beautifully staged showrooms and nodded politely when the accompanying property agents went on about “south-facing windows” and “efficient dumbbell layouts.”
But as I wandered through your living room in the mock-up units, everything suddenly seemed real. When touching the curated Gessi, Kohler, Franke, and Miele fixtures and finishings and imagining what it would be like to have a Grand Dunman address, I felt something different.
What stood out was that I have a steam room in my house all for myself. It’s perfect after a long day at work or shopping.
I saw a functional kitchen and living room that inspired cosy dinner parties, messy baking experiments, and deep late-night chats with friends over a glass of wine. The smart home system, which consists of aircon control, digital lockset, car plate recognition, and a smart condominium management system, made living here seamless and easy.
Your large units with spacious and efficient layouts are thoughtfully planned and cater to families, couples, and multi-generational households. Plus, there is a 1:1 carpark-lot-to-unit ratio, so finding a parking space is never an issue.
Most importantly, Grand Dunman, you felt like home.
Exclusive 100 Grand Units at Great Value
I know we haven’t signed the papers and made it official yet, but I can already see my family living in Grand Dunman. The address offers the best combination of location, lifestyle, and luxury in District 15.
It’s a space that can grow with you as you change. And with all the new upcoming plans for the Kallang Alive Masterplan and Long Island project, Grand Dunman checks all the boxes to be a smart, long-term investment.
There are just 199 units left for sale at the Grand Dunman. The developers are also currently throwing in a big discount on 100 exclusive Grand Block Units, which have exclusive features such as steam rooms and private lifts (for selected units). If I get the chance to make you mine, I promise I won’t take you for granted.
Signing off with admiration (and maybe just a bit of longing), a future Grand Dunman resident.
