About this property
Best value 3Bedder in the Enclave
Recent 3-bedroom transactions nearby are already above $2,300 psf, with upcoming GLS launches expected to set even higher benchmarks. This creates a clear and compelling value gap.
Why This Unit Stands Out
This is one of the very few remaining 3-bedroom homes in the Springleaf / Upper Thomson area priced below $2,000 psf — a price point that is increasingly difficult to replace today.
You’re buying space, functionality, and location without paying new-launch premiums.
Unit Highlights
Efficient 3-bedroom layout with no wasted space
Wide living and dining area
Proper enclosed kitchen
All bedrooms comfortably fit at least a queen-sized bed
Good privacy within a low-density development
Development Highlights
Boutique development with only 84 units
Quiet, landed enclave environment
Approx. 3-minute walk to Springleaf MRT (TEL)
Modern, resort-style design
Peaceful living with a strong owner-occupier appeal
For Homeowners
Ideal for buyers who want:
A proper family-sized layout
Quiet surroundings without sacrificing MRT convenience
Long-term liveability over compressed new launch designs
For Investors
Entry price more than $500 psf below recent 3-bedroom benchmarks nearby
Strong upside from TEL-driven transformation and future GLS launches
Limited new supply of boutique developments in the area
Defensive downside due to the replacement cost gap
Bottom Line
Opportunities like this are rare — a well-located, functional 3-bedroom in Springleaf at a price point that no longer reflects today’s market.
If you’re looking for value, space, and future growth potential, this unit deserves a closer look.
