Avg Ann. of +2.20% — bottom 17% within its 2006-era cohort. Weak capital appreciation, even when judged against vintage peers.
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ST. JOSEPH'S INSTITUTION JUNIOR at 0.76km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
73 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
0.52km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — short walk to MRT, good transport convenience.
Rental yield of 3.54% — above-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 1.57km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: ST. Joseph's Institution Junior, CHIJ Primary (TOA Payoh).
