Avg Ann. of +4.74% — but from only 4 resale sales in the last 10 years, too thin a sample to read capital appreciation reliably, so the score is discounted toward the cohort average.
1 primary school within 1km (HONG WEN SCHOOL, 0.89km away). Adequate but narrow school optionality.
24 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.83km from Toa Payoh Mrt Stn (NS19) — moderate MRT proximity; walkable but not doorstep.
Rental yield of 2.50% — 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 2.03km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: HONG WEN School.
