What works in its favour
- Both anchors locked in: 702m to CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL [SAP·Autonomous·GEP·IP] and 208m (~3-min walk) to Bishan MRT (Exit D). Strictly within the P1 1km zone, plus walkable to the nearest MRT entrance. This is the non-negotiable demand anchor — kiasu parents AND yield-chasing investors are both your buyers.
- Popular primary inside 1km — CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL: CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL is SAP · Autonomous · GEP · IP. These primaries are heavily oversubscribed, so addresses inside the 1km P1 zone hold a durable premium — kiasu parents will pay up to keep this option open.
- Sensible price gap: Launch PSF only +8% above local resale benchmark. Headroom for capital appreciation intact.
- Tight new-launch competition: Only 1 active private launch in your district — scarcity supports resale liquidity and pricing.
What to watch out for
- Thin transaction volume: Only 16 resale deals in the past year. Equity trap risk — when you want to exit, very few buyers to anchor against.
Who Sky Vue suits
- Buyers who prioritise a central, well-connected address
- Yield investors — ~3.2% gross is workable; favour larger unit types
- Buyers who value a stable, established neighbourhood over speculative upside
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers hunting deep relative value — the market has already priced in most of the story
- Short-term flippers — stamp duty + agent fees demand a 5-year minimum hold
- Buyers wanting a guaranteed top-tier primary within 1km walking distance
Huat Kueh says
Catholic High School in the 1km ring — parents confirm circling. Last 12 months down 10% — patience needed.
