Of the five projects, this is also the most comprehensive one, with flat types running the gamut from 2-room Flexi, to 3-room, 4-room, 5-room and 3Gen.

Besides being served by two major roads, the project also enjoys proximity to two MRT stations. There is also a neighbourhood centre nearby, as well as some schools and sporting facilities. Siglap Community Club is located down Bedok South Ave 3.

This is expected to be a popular BTO project, given its well-connected nature and proximity to the downtown core. However, the relative lack of schools nearby may present an obstacle for families with school-going children.

Only 570 units – comprising 3-room and 4-room configurations – will be available.

Further afield, residents can find neighbourhood centres, food & shopping centres, a community club, and multiple schools.

Also nearby is the Serangoon North MRT Station, which is a new station on the Cross Island Line that is currently under construction, and slated to open by 2030.
