Avg Ann. of +1.06% — bottom 11% within its 2007-era cohort. Weak capital appreciation, even when judged against vintage peers.
1 primary school within 1km (RIVER VALLEY PRIMARY SCHOOL, 0.59km away). Adequate but narrow school optionality.
169 units — boutique development. Lower transaction frequency and limited shared facilities.
260m from Somerset Mrt Stn (NS23) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 3.20% — 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 1.52km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
Primary schools within 1km: River Valley Primary School.
