Avg Ann. of +3.26% — near-median performance within its 1997-era cohort (49th percentile).
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: CHIJ PRIMARY (TOA PAYOH) at 0.91km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
32 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.67km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 2.48% — 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 1.73km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: CHIJ Primary (TOA Payoh), ST. Joseph's Institution Junior.
