- 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
Buyers most likely to be happy here: car-owning households, quiet sanctuary seekers, long-term hold (10+ yr) and freehold / generational hold. At ~696m from the nearest MRT, this property suits households with a car who value arterial road access over transit proximity.
young couples (no kids) should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.
yield-focused investors, short-term flippers (<5 yr) and resort facilities should probably look elsewhere. RCR (Rest of 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.
