What Could Work Against You

  • Only 0 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 18 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

This is a strong match for families with young children, mrt-walkable commuters, quiet sanctuary seekers and long-term hold (10+ yr). Family-suitable layout and OCR (Outside Central Region) location with established school catchments nearby.

en-bloc speculators should treat this as a shortlist candidate, not a default choice.

cbd walking distance and yield-focused investors should probably look elsewhere. Walking distance to the Marina Bay financial cluster lets you skip transit entirely.
