What Could Work Against You

  • Only 3 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 16 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

The profile fits young couples (no kids), mrt-walkable commuters, p1 school balloting families and yield-focused investors best. The unit profile suits DINK couples valuing CBD/MRT access over square footage.

heavy renovation / value seekers should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

It is a weaker fit for families with young children and resort facilities — other options likely serve them better. Family-suitable layout and OCR (Outside Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.

One caution flagged here: avoid if mrt-dependent — MRT access is meaningfully constrained — transit-dependent buyers should consider better-connected alternatives.
