Avg Ann. of +4.16% — top-quartile performance within its 1993-era cohort (73th percentile).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: HONG WEN SCHOOL at 0.65km). Exceptional school catchment — strong appeal for families with young children.
124 units — boutique development. Lower transaction frequency and limited shared facilities.
0.91km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — moderate MRT proximity; walkable but not doorstep.
Rental yield of 2.55% — below-average income return.
Freehold tenure — no lease decay concerns, preserves long-term value.
Limited future-catalyst exposure — nearest is Newton–Orchard mixed-use precinct at 1.84km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: HONG WEN School, ST. Joseph's Institution Junior.
