Avg Ann. of +2.83% — top-quartile performance within its 2012-era cohort (81th percentile).
3 primary schools within 1km (nearest: HONG WEN SCHOOL at 0.59km). Exceptional school catchment — strong appeal for families with young children.
127 units — boutique development. Lower transaction frequency and limited shared facilities.
0.96km from Novena Mrt Stn (NS20) — moderate MRT proximity; walkable but not doorstep.
Rental yield of 3.06% — below-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 1.81km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
