Avg Ann. of -4.95% — bottom 9% within its 2016-era cohort. Weak capital appreciation, even when judged against vintage peers.
2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (JUNIOR) at 0.61km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.
231 units — good project size supporting active resale market and adequate facilities.
380m from Newton Mrt Stn (NS21) — direct, walk-in MRT access. Strong commuter appeal.
Rental yield of 3.30% — above-average income return.
103YR tenure — about 87 years remaining — no near-term decay concern.
Moderate future-catalyst exposure — nearest meaningful driver: Newton–Orchard mixed-use precinct at 0.43km. Some forward-looking tailwind, but the impact is more diffuse than for adjacent-zone projects.
Primary schools within 1km: Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), Anglo-Chinese School (Primary).
