Avg Ann. of -0.51% — below-median performance vs same-vintage peers (21th percentile of 2015-era cohort).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (JUNIOR) at 0.26km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
50 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.58km from Newton Mrt Stn (NS21) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 2.16% — weak income return.
Freehold tenure — no lease decay concerns, preserves long-term value.
Moderate future-catalyst exposure — nearest meaningful driver: Newton–Orchard mixed-use precinct at 0.65km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
Primary schools within 1km: Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), ST. Margaret's School (Primary).
