Avg Ann. of +1.89% — below-median performance vs same-vintage peers (30th percentile of 1983-era cohort).
1 primary school within 1km (RAFFLES GIRLS' PRIMARY SCHOOL, 0.56km away). Adequate but narrow school optionality.
164 units — boutique development. Lower transaction frequency and limited shared facilities.
0.95km from Tan Kah Kee Mrt Stn (DT8) — moderate MRT proximity; walkable but not doorstep.
Rental yield of 3.49% — above-average income return.
99YR tenure — about 52 years remaining; lease decay is starting to impact bank valuations and CPF usage.
Moderate future-catalyst exposure — nearest meaningful driver: Bukit Timah Turf City new housing cluster at 0.59km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
Primary schools within 1km: Raffles Girls' Primary School.
