What Could Work Against You
- Only 0 transactions were recorded in the past 12 months, so the price figures here rest on a thin sample — a single outlier deal can move the averages.
- At 39 units, this is a boutique development — fewer comparable sales to anchor valuations, and maintenance costs spread across a smaller fee base.

Who This Actually Suits
Buyers most likely to be happy here: families with young children, car-owning households, long-term hold (10+ yr) and short-term flippers (<5 yr). Family-suitable layout and CCR (Core Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.
empty nesters / downsizers and foreign / absd-aware buyers should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.
It is a weaker fit for yield-focused investors and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. CCR (Core Central Region) location with rental demand profile worth running through our Rental Yield Calculator.
