View of HDB blocks at Casa Clementi.
EXCLUSIVE: A 5-room HDB resale flat at Casa Clementi is up for sale at an eye-popping $968,000, nearly a month after PropertyGuru reported that a similar unit at another block within the precinct was sold for a slightly lower price of $960,000.
5-room HDB flat in Clementi sells for record $960,000
According to listing details on PropertyGuru, the unit at Block 416 Clementi Avenue 1 has a built-up area of 1,259 sq ft. This translates to a psf price of about $769.
Located above the 30th floor, the flat offers unobstructed views of Bukit Timah hill and comes fully-furnished with “designer décor”. “Just bring luggage and move in,” the listing stated.
The property is relatively close to the Clementi and Dover MRT stations, while nearby schools include Nan Hua High School and the International Community School.
Completed in June 2012, Casa Clementi is one of the largest public housing projects in Singapore. It contains 2,234 flats spread across 10 residential blocks.
When contacted, the seller’s property agent Albert Teh would not reveal much information, except to say that the unit has been on the market for about a week and hasn’t attracted any interest yet.
If the PropNex agent manages to close the deal at that price, it will set a new high for resale flats in Clementi, and will equal the recent sale of a 5-room flat at Buona Vista Court in nearby Queenstown, which changed hands in May for $968,000 ($769 psf).
