SINGAPORE: As resale prices continue to climb across Singapore, a 127 sq m (1,367 sq ft) high-floor executive apartment at Block 181 Jelebu Road has been sold for a staggering $1.02 million, equivalent to $746 per square foot. This transaction, which took place earlier this month, has set a new benchmark for the Bukit Panjang neighbourhood, marking the first HDB flat in the area to cross the coveted million-dollar threshold.

According to real estate consultancy EdgeProp, the prime location of the executive apartment, situated right across from the Bukit Panjang integrated transport hub, Bukit Panjang Plaza, and Hillion Mall, could be a major contributing factor to the high selling price.

Block 181 on Jelebu Road, constructed in 2003, consists of eight 30-storey public housing blocks. The executive apartment in question has a 99-year lease from 2003, translating to a remaining lease of 78 years and eight months.
