The Minton

The Minton

The Minton is a large-scale 99-year leasehold private condominium located along Hougang Street 11 within District 19 (Hougang/Serangoon).

Positioned within a mature residential enclave, the development sits between established heartland amenities and key transport corridors serving Singapore’s north-east region.

Completed in 2014, The Minton comprises 1,145 residential units spread across multiple residential blocks rising to 17 storeys.

Residential units at The Minton are predominantly configured to reflect its orientation towards family households rather than compact, investor-driven layouts.

Beyond its residential units, the development also features five strata retail shops and a childcare centre, providing basic daily conveniences within the estate.

Unique Selling Points

One of The Minton’s defining characteristics is its scale, which allows for a full condominium estate with generous internal spacing, landscaping, and a wide range of communal facilities.

This differentiates it from smaller, higher-density developments in the surrounding Hougang and Kovan area.

These facilities are designed to support long-term owner-occupation rather than short-stay or rental-focused use.

Unit configurations are essentially practical and family-oriented, with fewer small units than in newer launches.

This positions The Minton as a development prioritising liveability, space efficiency, and communal living over boutique exclusivity.

Accessibility and Connectivity Around The Minton

The Minton is within walking distance of several MRT stations, offering residents flexibility across multiple transport lines.

Serangoon MRT Station (NE12/CC13) is approximately 945 metres away, offering interchange access between the North-East Line and Circle Line.

Kovan MRT Station (NE13) and Bartley MRT Station (CC12) are also accessible within walking distance for some residents, depending on block location.

Bus services along Upper Serangoon Road and Hougang Avenue further supplement public transport connectivity.

For motorists, the development benefits from access to major arterial roads and expressways, supporting travel towards the CBD, Paya Lebar, and other regional centres.

This combination of rail and road connectivity supports both daily commuting and longer-distance travel.
