Lease Analysis

With 48 years remaining on its 99-year lease, buyers should note CPF usage and loan tenure may be restricted.

What Could Work Against You

  • With roughly 48 years left on the lease, financing restrictions begin to bite: CPF usage tightens and banks trim loan tenures, which shrinks the future buyer pool.
  • 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.
  • Completed in 1981, the development is over 45 years old — budget for rising maintenance, dated M&E systems, and the possibility that value increasingly rests on en-bloc potential rather than the units themselves.

Who This Actually Suits

The profile fits car-owning households, international school families and en-bloc speculators best. At ~931m from the nearest MRT, this property suits households with a car who value arterial road access over transit proximity.

long-term hold (10+ yr), cpf-only buyers and resort facilities should probably look elsewhere. Tenure and location resilience suit long-horizon ownership.
