Note: The HDB BTO February 2024 projects have been launched. Applications close on 28 February 2024, 11.59pm.
Nestled in an area with private housing, future residents of the Woodgrove Edge Woodlands HDB BTO Feb 2024 flats will be neighbours with the Rosewood Drive and Woodgrove Estate locales. Towards the south lies the Seletar Expressway.
The Woodgrove Edge Woodlands HDB BTO Feb 2024 project will see a sizeable number of 1,127 BTO flats across 2-room Flexi up to 5-room types being built in this area. Residents are tucked further away from the bustling hubbub of Woodlands Central but can access these amenities just 15 minutes by foot.
There are also a couple of schools in the neighbourhood, and of course, Woodlands is a stone’s throw away from the upcoming Johor Bahru–Singapore Rapid Transit System, which can be accessed from Woodlands North MRT station on the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) when the 4km-long cross-border service begins operations around end-2026.
Albeit further removed from the city centre, Woodlands’ connectivity has improved significantly with the TEL, which gives residents speedier access to downtown Singapore, as well as will connect them to the eastern part of the island when that segment is completed in 2024.

August 2022 saw a Woodlands BTO launch as well, also close to an MRT station (but Woodlands South instead of the busy Woodlands). Our estimates are meant to be a guide for budgeting considerations.
For the Woodgrove Edge February 2024 Woodlands HDB BTO launch, although there is a bumper crop of 1,127 flats, the demand might be higher than normal than other non-mature estates. This could be because of the spacious 5-room flat configurations available, as well as Woodlands’ up-and-coming popularity due to the TEL and RTS Link, the latter speeding up trips to Johor Bahru for day shopping when it is operational at the end of 2026. For the December 2023 Woodlands HDB BTO launch, the highest application rates were for 5-room BTO flats, where families are vying for a unit.
Based on the Q4 2023 median HDB resale flat prices in the area, the HDB flats in Woodlands will likely see some appreciation after their Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) is up. Prices might increase further as developments and connectivity improve even more.

The above example calculations are based on a 25-year loan. However, if you can make higher monthly repayments, you may want to opt for a shorter loan (and pay lesser interest!).

Woodgrove Edge Woodlands BTO February 2024 Amenities (HDB BTO February 2024 Launch)
Nestled in a Private Housing Area
The Woodgrove Edge Woodlands HDB BTO Feb 2024 flats are bounded by Woodgrove Avenue and Rosewood Drive, both locales that typically have private and landed properties. The project is also a distance from the main hustle and bustle at Woodlands MRT station, which means a more tranquil environment for residents. Those facing the Seletar Expressway might encounter traffic noises, which might break the peace of quiet nights.
Close to the Causeway
Heading over to Johor Bahru in Malaysia for a spot of shopping gets even more convenient, not just from the Woodlands location, but also the upcoming RTS Link that is scheduled for completion by end-2026. Time to note down all the trendy cafes and shops on your Google Maps, and train your arms for intensive grocery shopping!
Close to the Vibrant Woodlands Central
Nearby amenities just a short walk from your flat include the sprawling Causeway Point Mall and Woodlands Civic Centre which houses the library, Woodlands Sports Centre, and Woodlands Community Club. The open space near the Woodlands MRT is also home to roving ‘pasar malams’, which adds to the lively and vibrant atmosphere of this neighbourhood.
Schools for All Ages
With a bunch of primary schools, secondary schools, and tertiary institutes that include Republic Polytechnic and Yishun Innova Junior College, families and even adult learners can have a bright education in Woodlands. There are also specialised schools including Singapore Sports School and the Singapore American School close by.
Conclusion: Is the Woodgrove Edge Woodlands February BTO 2024 Project Worth Balloting For?
There have been consistent HDB BTO launches in Woodlands, but who knows when this supply will cease. Families who want to live in Woodlands should strike early, while there is still supply and before prices start increasing alongside the developments in the estate.
Although a bit of a walk to the MRT stations and the town centre. 15 minutes is still a very reasonable duration. This is the trade-off of living in a more private area, as well as being somewhat in the middle of three MRT stations that provide the option of two MRT lines – North-South Line and TEL, the latter making travel to downtown Singapore for work or leisure more convenient.
In the future, the RTS Link will make short trips over the Causeway much easier, and this is another draw of living in Woodlands. There is also a plethora of amenities in Woodlands Central, including malls, transport links and recreation. Educational institutes are also available for all ages, even adult learners.
With 1,127 units in 2-room Flexi to 5-room configurations, the Woodgrove Edge Woodlands HDB BTO Feb 2024 project is a great option for seniors, singles, and families of all sizes. Being a non-mature estate, the flats are still more affordable than their mature estate compatriots. However, due to the burgeoning developments here, prices could be higher than those of other non-mature estate BTO flats. The good news is, there could be more appreciation after the five-year MOP.
Pros of Woodgrove Edge Woodlands February BTO 2024

- A great mix of schools in the area
- Potential for further development of the area (upcoming RTS Link, expansion of TEL)
- Private location
- Close to the Causeway

- Good for seniors, singles, couples, all the way to big families
Cons of Woodgrove Edge Woodlands February BTO 2024
- MRT and LRT stations are not at the doorstep (15 minutes on foot)
- Far from the city centre (but improved with TEL)
- Close to the expressway (potential traffic noise)
- Not really near any green lungs
Woodlands is getting more convenient with improved transport links that offer faster access to downtown Singapore and in the future, eastern Singapore. Residents will live in a more private area, just a 15-minute walk from the town centre, which has a plethora of amenities.
There is also a large range of educational institutes in Woodlands that even adult learners can enjoy. Being a long-time non-mature estate, Woodlands retains more affordable pricing yet offers the conveniences of a mature estate.
BTO Application Process Updates
As a BTO applicant, you will need to first apply for the HDB Flat Eligibility (HFE) letter before you can make your BTO application. Ensure you have obtained a valid HFE letter before applying for a BTO flat in the February BTO 2024 launch. Processing of applications typically takes up to 21 working days, but during peak periods (eg. BTO launch week) there might be delays.
If you are a first-timer BTO applicant who turns down a BTO offer, you will be considered a second-timer applicant for one whole year. If you turn down another BTO offer in a second BTO application, you will need to wait one year before being allowed to apply for another BTO flat.
The previous Parenthood Priority Scheme (PPS) has been replaced by a new HDB scheme, the Family and Parenthood Priority Scheme (FPPS). The FPPS has created a new subset of applicants, First-Timer (Parents and Couples), or FT (PMC). 40% of BTO flats in each sales exercise will be reserved for those in the FT(PMC) category.
FT (PMC) applicants who do not manage to obtain a BTO flat offer in two or more BTO applications in a non-mature estate will now have an additional chance in each subsequent BTO application. This rule makes it easier for those who have been repeatedly unsuccessful to secure a BTO flat.
