It sits immediately next to Emerald of Katong, which later sold 99% on its opening weekend at $2,621 psf average. Tembusu Grand's secondary market average of $2,458 psf offers a notable discount to its neighbour.

Three things to know.
Emerald of Katong's next-door neighbour
Jalan Tembusu Parcel B (Emerald of Katong, launched Nov 2024, $2,621 psf average, 99% sold in a weekend) directly adjoins Tembusu Grand. Buyers who missed Emerald can access the same block face and street address at a $160+ psf average discount on the secondary market.
Two MRT lines walkable
Tanjong Katong MRT (Thomson-East Coast Line, TE25) is nine minutes on foot - the station opened June 2024. Dakota MRT (Circle Line, CC8) is approximately 1km away. Two different lines, two different parts of the city, both accessible from the same front gate.
CDL and MCL Land track record
CDL has delivered 43,000+ homes globally; MCL Land is a Hongkong Land subsidiary. Together they previously completed Piccadilly Grand (407 units, Farrer Park) and Copen Grand EC (639 units, Tengah) - both fully sold. ADDP Architects is also the firm behind Piccadilly Grand.

Risks & catalysts
What could move.
- ·Secondary market liquidity is thinner than primary launch, exit timing dominates outcome
- ·Nominal TOP 2028-Q4, construction milestone progress not independently verified in this run
- ·Tanjong Katong MRT (TE25) opened June 2024, TEL Stage 4 fully operational
- ·Surrounding D15 stock (Grand Dunman, The Continuum, and the broader Jalan Tembusu/Tanjong Katong launch cohort) at or near sold-out, supports comparable resale band
FAQ
What buyers ask.
Q01How does Tembusu Grand fit within the broader D15 launch cohort?
Tembusu Grand was the leasehold benchmark on Jalan Tembusu when it launched in April 2023, at $2,296–$2,791 psf with an average around $2,465. The Continuum (freehold, May 2023, ~1.5km north on Thiam Siew Avenue) and Grand Dunman (leasehold, July 2023, ~1.5km west on Dunman Road) followed in the same year. Together the trio added roughly 2,460 units to D15 supply in a single year; subsequent 2024 D15 launches re-priced the leasehold band higher.
Q02Why is the MRT walk listed as 9 minutes from Tembusu Grand?
Tembusu Grand sits on the inland portion of Jalan Tembusu, set back from Tanjong Katong MRT (TE25, Thomson-East Coast Line) which opened June 2024. Nine minutes is the OneMap walking estimate from the project's main entrance to the station. Dakota MRT (CC8, Circle Line) is approximately 1km away as a secondary option.
Q03Is Tembusu Grand still available from the developer?
Status is 'sold' in the launch book. The v1 body prose preserved here records ~82% sold as of November 2024; the position has since closed at the developer level. New units are not available, only resale via the secondary market.
Q04Who is CDL Triton Pte. Ltd. and what is the consortium?
CDL Triton Pte. Ltd. is the project entity for Tembusu Grand. It is a joint vehicle of City Developments Limited (CDL) and MCL Land. The same consortium previously delivered Piccadilly Grand (Farrer Park, 2022) and Copen Grand EC (Tengah, 2022).
Q05What is the MRT context, TE25 versus Dakota CC8?
Tanjong Katong (TE25, Thomson-East Coast Line) opened June 2024 and is the primary station, nine minutes on foot. Dakota (CC8, Circle Line) is approximately 1km away and offers a Circle Line alternative into Marina Bay and Paya Lebar.
