What Could Work Against You

  • Only 1 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 12 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 families with young children, car-owning households, p1 school balloting families and quiet sanctuary seekers best. Family-suitable layout and OCR (Outside Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.

For long-term hold (10+ yr), foreign / absd-aware buyers and first-time hdb upgraders, it can work — but weigh the trade-offs before committing.

yield-focused investors should probably look elsewhere. OCR (Outside Central Region) location with rental demand profile worth running through our Rental Yield Calculator.

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