Avg Ann. of +2.86% — below-median performance vs same-vintage peers (30th percentile of 2003-era cohort).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ST. JOSEPH'S INSTITUTION JUNIOR at 0.16km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
37 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
300m from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 2.37% — weak income return.
Freehold tenure — no lease decay concerns, preserves long-term value.
Limited future-catalyst exposure — nearest is Newton–Orchard mixed-use precinct at 1.12km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: ST. Joseph's Institution Junior, Farrer PARK Primary School.
