Avg Ann. of -0.04% — below-median performance vs same-vintage peers (25th percentile of 2003-era cohort).
3 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (PRIMARY) at 0.56km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
24 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
330m from Newton Mrt Stn (DT11) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 2.82% — 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 0.39km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
Primary schools within 1km: Anglo-Chinese School (Primary), ST. Joseph's Institution Junior, Anglo-Chinese School (Junior).
