What Could Work Against You

  • Only 9 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.

Who This Actually Suits

Buyers most likely to be happy here: families with young children, yield-focused investors, long-term hold (10+ yr) and freehold / generational hold. Editorial fit: 'Families valuing peaceful, low-density living with spacious units and children's facilities'. Family-suitable layout and OCR (Outside Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.

For car-owning households, it can work — but weigh the trade-offs before committing.

One caution flagged here: avoid if mrt-dependent — MRT is ~1459m away — over a 15-minute walk. Daily transit-only commuters should consider better-connected alternatives.

ESTELLA GARDENS is a freehold development in District 17 (OCR), with 350 units, offering a gross yield of 3.1%.
