Tenure resilience. Freehold tenure removes the lease-decay headwind that affects 99-year leasehold stock from ~year 60 onward. CPF eligibility, loan-tenure caps, and resale buyer pool are all preserved without the time-decay clock. For long holds (15+ years), this matters meaningfully more than headline PSF.
Genuine walk-to-MRT access. Farrer Park sits about 0.37km away — true walking distance, not the elastic 800m claim that some listings stretch. For tenants and commuter-owners, this anchors rental demand and supports a steady capital-value floor across cycles.
Boutique character. With 7 units, THE BLISS keeps a low-density character — fewer residents per facility, quieter corridors, more curated common spaces. Suits buyers prioritising unit-interior quality and neighbour proximity over deep facilities breadth.
School-belt proximity. LASALLE College of the Arts sits about 0.38km away, with additional schools clustered nearby. Family households on 24-month tenancies anchor the rental pool, which materially improves vacancy economics for landlord-owners.
Thin transaction history. With only 1 recorded sales, comparable-sales analysis is fragile — a single outlier transaction can skew the apparent price level by 5-10%. Triangulate with nearby district comparables rather than rely on within-project averages alone.
District supply pipeline. Non-prime districts are more sensitive to GLS pipeline additions; check the URA Master Plan 2019 confirmed and provisional land sales schedule for the immediate 5-year window. New launches at 10-20% lower PSF can compress secondary-market resale velocity for 18-24 months around their launch dates.

Composite assessment: THE BLISS combines walking-distance MRT with long-tenure leasehold (or freehold) — a solid structural foundation. The district position dictates whether capital appreciation outpaces or tracks the broader market. 1 transactions in URA REALIS provide the data foundation for this view.
Suggested holding period for most buyer profiles: 6-10 years to ride out one full macro cycle. Cross-reference per-bedroom net yield against district comparables via the compare-tool, model monthly cash-flow with the mortgage calculator, and confirm your effective BSD+ABSD cost using the stamp-duty calculator before finalising.
