What Could Work Against You

  • Only 4 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 23 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

This is a strong match for car-owning households, quiet sanctuary seekers, long-term hold (10+ yr) and freehold / generational hold. At ~567m from the nearest MRT, this property suits households with a car who value arterial road access over transit proximity.

mrt-walkable commuters and yield-focused investors should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

It is a weaker fit for short-term flippers (<5 yr) and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. TOP 2011 keeps the SSD window in mind for buyers exploring the 3-5 year resale-arbitrage strategy.


Verdict

SANCTUARY @ 813 is a freehold development in District 19 (OCR), with 23 units, offering a gross yield of 3.1%.

At ~$1,457 psf, it represents a competitive entry point in the OCR segment.
