The private condos list ranked by distance to Clementi MRT is sorted by walking-distance, not as-the-crow-flies. Singapore’s urban form — built around limited road grids, MRT alignment, and walkway connectivity — means actual walking distance can be 1.3–1.8x the straight-line distance. Each unit’s rated distance reflects this real-walking-distance computation.
Within the shortlist, individual private condos differ on (a) tenure type (mix of freehold, 999-year, and 99-year leasehold), (b) unit-type mix (studio / 1BR / 2BR / 3BR / 4BR), (c) MCST or S&CC fees (for condos vs HDB), and (d) age + facilities standard. The proximity-premium is one variable; the comprehensive evaluation needs all of these. Use the comparison tool to place 2–3 candidates side-by-side on price, PSF, yield, and walkability score.
Cross-reference the list against URA REALIS (for private condo transacted caveats) or the HDB resale portal (for HDB resale transactions) to verify recent per-unit transacted prices. The proximity-premium varies by district and demand cohort; well-connected RCR / OCR with strong upgrader demand tends to see the highest premium, while super-prime CCR sees a smaller relative premium because PSF is already high.
The distance-vs-price curve for Clementi MRT typically follows a step-function: units 0–500m command the full premium (5–10% for MRT, 3–8% for schools), units 500m–1km command a partial premium (3–5%), and units 1km+ command little to no premium. For yield-focused buyers, the 500m–1km band can offer the best yield-to-price tradeoff — close enough for tenant-demand support but priced below the premium-floor 0–500m tier.
The 1km school-zone threshold is binary in regulatory terms (you either qualify for Phase 2C balloting advantage or you don’t), so for family-stage buyers the cliff is meaningful. For MRT-proximity there’s no equivalent binary threshold, but the walking-time-tolerance threshold typically sits around 8–10 minutes — buyers tolerate longer walks if the segment is otherwise compelling.
Within the shortlist, value-buyers should look for: (a) older private condos in the 500m–1km band with strong fundamentals (freehold tenure or good unit-mix) that are priced below the proximity-premium-floor adjacent stock; (b) private condos in projects where MCST or S&CC fees are lower than comparable proximity-tier stock; (c) units on lower floors in private condos with good orientation, where the floor-band discount partially offsets the proximity-premium. The price heatmap visualises district-level PSF concentration; cross-reference with the URA Property Price Index for cycle context.
FAQ
How many condos are near Clementi MRT?
What is the average PSF near Clementi MRT?
How is the distance to Clementi MRT computed?
Walking distance, not as-the-crow-flies. Singapore’s urban form means actual walking distance is typically 1.3–1.8x the straight-line distance. The list reflects real-walking computation, verified against the LTA MRT system map (for MRT) or Ministry of Education (for schools).
What is the typical proximity premium for Clementi MRT?
MRT-proximity premium typically runs 5–10% over equivalent units 1km+ away, varying by district and segment.
Does the MRT station affect rental yield?
Yes. MRT-proximate units rent at a 5–10% premium to equivalent further-away units, with shorter letting cycles. This typically improves gross yield by 20–40 basis points.
How does cooling-measure environment affect this list?
The post-April-2023 cooling-measure regime (foreigner ABSD 60%, SC second-property ABSD 20%, TDSR 55%) shapes demand-side composition across all districts. Proximity premium remains structural, but the absolute price level reflects the broader demand-supply equilibrium. See IRAS ABSD and the MAS TDSR explainer.
Where can I verify transacted prices for private condos in this list?
The official source is URA REALIS for private residential caveats. ShiokNest aggregates this data into per-project transacted history.
Should I always prioritise proximity to Clementi MRT?
Honest answer: depends on holding horizon and buyer profile. For family-stage buyers, school-zone proximity is binary-valuable during the 6-year primary-school window. For MRT-proximity, daily commute quality compounds across the holding period. Yield-focused investors should run the ROI calculator with proximity-tier-specific yield assumptions.
