Avg Ann. of +0.00% — but from only 1 resale sale in the last 10 years, too thin a sample to read capital appreciation reliably, so the score is discounted toward the cohort average.
No primary schools within 1km — school access is limited, particularly for parents prioritising Primary 1 registration.
23 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.55km from Orchard Mrt Stn (NS22) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 2.46% — 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 1.24km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
