Five recently-launched condos in Singapore still have two-bedroom units available in 2026, including Narra Residences, One Marina Gardens, The Collective…
Most landed estates have their own playground, but these can vary in size and offerings, from tiny spaces to ones with entire basketball courts. Singapore being land-scarce, smaller playgrounds are more common than big ones. Hence, when I saw that Lucky Gardens – down the road from Lucky View landed estate (which we toured a while back), had a large green space – I thought it was worth checking out.
As you can see from the Masterplan, the landed plots in Lucky Gardens are generally smaller than those at Lucky View (which typically translates to a lower entry price and a larger pool of prospective buyers).
However, the last transacted sale price at Lucky Gardens (in October 2024) is actually higher than the last transacted sales price at Lucky View ($5.15 million in February 2025). Keep in mind that the last house sold on Lucky Gardens is larger than the one sold on Lucky View, though. If we extend the time horizon to 2024, the sales prices are more in line with expectations: $3.7 million – $5.5 million for Lucky Gardens and $5.15 million – $7.28 million for Lucky View.
There are three ways to get to Lucky Gardens: you can go via Sennett Avenue, Lucky Heights, and Lucky Rise. We’re taking the third route here (also the furthest point from the playground.)The houses on Lucky Gardens are predominantly terrace units, but some are quite large. The last transaction was for a 3,627 sq.ft. unit and there was even a 4,210 sq.ft. unit sold in 2024.Often, parking is in short supply in terrace estates but I was able to easily find a spot when I visited.The outside of some houses in Lucky Gardens. (To see the inside of a home in Lucky Gardens, click here instead.)The landscaping is quite nice here and some units have turned the pavements into mini fruit gardens.There is also a drain in between some rows of houses, extending the setback in between them.Some houses still have room to build upwards.Shortly after we turn in from Lucky Rise, the road descends quite sharply (look towards the back of the above photo.)Here, the road splits into two. It’s basically a large cul-de-sac, so whichever route you take, you’ll loop back to this spot. If you take the left path, the road starts descending. That means the houses to the right are on higher ground or have a better view of the surroundings.These are the houses to the right: as you can see, they have a pretty much unblocked view. That’s the playground in front of them: it’s on lower-lying land.These two photos may give you a better idea of how much higher the houses are. There’s also a pavement in-between the playground and the road, extending the distance between the playground and the homes. I’m starting with the descending path on the left, and looking upward to the row of houses on higher ground.Walking down the left path – we see some outdoor gym equipment here.Some cars are parked around the bend, but it’s not super crowded.A view of more playground facilities.This is why the road isn’t super crowded. There are bins out to reserve parking spaces.There also appears to be some construction work going on in the playground.The residents here are pretty creative in their ways of “choping” parking lots.There are a few large units, but most of the terrace houses here are on the smaller side.We’re now almost halfway round the Lucky Garden cul-de-sac and at its lowest point.Here, you can enter the playground without climbing stairs. If you come here from the top row of houses, you have to descend down quite a steep flight of stairs: look at the back of the photo to see the staircase.More cars are parked here, and a large open space opposite the playground with some structures in it.According to Google Maps, that’s the Boyanese Cemetery; although the land is marked residential on the Master plan. I think this is the first cemetery we’ve come across on these walkabouts.Looking to the left of the cemetery, we see an HDB block. Let’s go check if there’s a shortcut into the HDB estate, where you can usually find amenities.Nope, no shortcut. What appeared to be a dead end actually leads onto Sennett Avenue. We’re not covering Sennett Avenue in today’s walkabout, so we’ll head back where we came.Going uphill again.Cemetery to my left, playground to my right. If you’re interested in learning more about the Boyanese cemetery, here’s more information about burial sites in Singapore in general. According to the article, it contains a few graves of Malay royalty and was in use up to the ’70s.The playground has quite a long sheltered area.As shown, it’s fenced up, so you can only get in or out at specific points- this makes it less likely that children will run out onto the road I guess.More reserved street parking spaces.There’s also a small freehold apartment complex here: Lucky Court, which has only 15 units. No units for sale or rent at the time of writing.If you walk up this way, with Lucky Court to your right, a few more steps will take you to Lucky Heights. At the junction of Lucky Gardens and Lucky Heights, you’ll find Smartz Playhouse preschool.We’re going to head back and take the right path instead. This will bring us full circle back to where we entered the Lucky Gardens estate.
See what I mean about the size of the playground? You can barely see any houses in front of you!

Looking down the staircase that takes you into the playground. If you have children in a pram, you’ll definitely need to go round to the other entrance.I like this view, although it would have been nicer if the streets had been broader with more parking.A photo to show you how much higher you can build.A cute pup saying “hi.”Walking back to our starting point. One thing to note is that the playground is beautifully kept, but that might mean regular gardening noises; and possibly gardening trucks or lorries blocking part of the road quite regularly.This brings us to the end of Lucky Gardens.
How did you find it? Are you a fan or did you prefer Lucky View? Personally I found Lucky Gardens more memorable but Lucky View easier to drive through. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
