Avg Ann. of +3.02% — near-median performance within its 2007-era cohort (42th percentile).
3 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ST. JOSEPH'S INSTITUTION JUNIOR at 0.37km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
118 units — boutique development. Lower transaction frequency and limited shared facilities.
340m from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 3.16% — below-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 0.72km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
