Avg Ann. of +3.21% — near-median performance within its 1993-era cohort (44th percentile).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ST. JOSEPH'S INSTITUTION JUNIOR at 0.63km). Exceptional school catchment — strong appeal for families with young children.
28 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.56km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 2.13% — 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 1.57km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
