Proximity to Henry Park Primary School is one of the highest-leverage locational variables in the Singapore property market. Primary-school proximity matters for families during the Phase 2A/2B/2C/3 registration windows; the 1km school-zone catchment is the operative threshold for the Phase 2C balloting advantage. The Ministry of Education maintains the official registration framework.
For private condo buyers in particular, proximity to Henry Park Primary School translates to (a) immediate quality-of-life benefit during the holding period, (b) measurable rental-yield uplift via stronger tenant demand, and (c) resale-pricing premium when exiting. The premium magnitude varies: school-zone proximity premium typically runs 3–8% over equivalent units outside the 1km catchment. This private condos shortlist surfaces the developments closest to Henry Park Primary School.
The cost framework applies uniformly: private condo buyers face BSD per the IRAS BSD, ABSD per the IRAS ABSD by buyer profile, and SORA-pegged mortgages at ~4.0% all-in via the MAS TDSR explainer framework. Use the stamp duty calculator to size your upfront cost.

What the 1km Rule Actually Means
Living within 1km of Henry Park Primary School gives Singapore-citizen children the top distance-priority tier in the MOE Primary 1 (P1) ballot (Phase 2C). Three things buyers most often get wrong:
- Distance is measured as a straight line to the school’s central point — not walking or driving distance. Verify any address on the official OneMap School Query.
- Within 1km is not a guarantee. The most sought-after schools ballot even within the 1km citizen tier.
- To use home-based priority you must live at the address for at least 30 months from the start of the exercise; MOE spot-checks and prosecutes false addresses.
Full mechanics — phases, balloting and the residency rule — are in the P1 registration & 1km-rule property guide.

Overlapping School Catchments
A home sitting within 1km of two popular primary schools is the strongest catchment play there is — it widens your P1 options and tends to hold demand best on resale. Other schools whose catchment overlaps Henry Park Primary School:
- Singapore University of Social Sciences (Tertiary) — 310m
- Ngee Ann Polytechnic (Tertiary) — 320m
- Anglo-Chinese Junior College (Jc) — 670m
- Australian International School (International) — 790m
Why This School Drives Demand
Henry Park Primary School is a GEP centre and one of the most consistently oversubscribed schools in the west.
School programmes and affiliations change — confirm current status on the MOE school-information service before relying on it.
Rent vs Buy Within 1km
Some families rent within 1km purely to secure the P1 distance tier. It is legitimate, but weigh it carefully:
- The 30-month residency rule applies to renters too — you must genuinely live at the address for about 30 months from the start of the exercise.
- MOE runs address spot-checks and has prosecuted parents for false declarations.
- A caregiver’s address within 1km is downgraded to the 1–2km tier — it does not buy you the top band.
- Buying instead locks the address in permanently and captures any catchment appreciation, but ties up capital and stamp duty.
The private condos list ranked by distance to Henry Park Primary School 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 (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 Henry Park Primary School 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.

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.
