Avg Ann. of +3.80% — near-median performance within its 1975-era cohort (55th percentile).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (PRIMARY) at 0.37km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
10 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.83km from Mount Pleasant Mrt Stn (TE10) — moderate MRT proximity; walkable but not doorstep.
Rental yield of 2.56% — 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 1.02km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: Anglo-Chinese School (Primary), Singapore Chinese Girls' Primary School.
