Avg Ann. of +2.34% — 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.
3 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (PRIMARY) at 0.56km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
13 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.47km from Newton Mrt Stn (DT11) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 3.62% — above-average 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 0.55km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
Primary schools within 1km: Anglo-Chinese School (Primary), ST. Joseph's Institution Junior, Anglo-Chinese School (Junior).
