Avg Ann. of +2.35% — below-median performance vs same-vintage peers (20th percentile of 1999-era cohort).
3 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (PRIMARY) at 0.44km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
32 units — very small project; niche product with thin resale market.
110m from Newton Mrt Stn (DT11) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 2.67% — 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 0.22km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
