Primary School Effect20% weight

2 primary schools within 1km (nearest: ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOL (JUNIOR) at 0.53km). Strong school proximity — a genuine advantage for young families.

10/10

Freehold tenure — no lease decay concerns, preserves long-term value.

4/10

Limited future-catalyst exposure — nearest is Newton–Orchard mixed-use precinct at 1.01km, far enough that the impact on this project is modest.
