Avg Ann. of +4.88% — 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.
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ST. JOSEPH'S INSTITUTION JUNIOR at 0.15km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
9 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.44km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 2.84% — 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 1.13km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: ST. Joseph's Institution Junior, Farrer PARK Primary School.
