“There is high human traffic throughout the day, from residents to students from surrounding schools. There is ample parking in the area for patrons. Footfall to the shops is likely to increase when more residential homes are built on the empty parcels of land in the vicinity,” says Rey Song, senior division director of Huttons Asia.
“HDB shophouses are more affordable than conservation shophouses and are highly sought after by investors over the past 2-3 years due to the additional buyer’s stamp duty (ABSD) payable for residential properties,” says Jeremy Lim, senior group district director of Huttons Asia.

“There are only 8,500 HDB shophouses that can be resold in the market. Furthermore, the shophouses are not subjected to ABSD and seller’s stamp duty. It should see healthy interest from investors,” adds Lee Sze Teck, senior director of research at Huttons Asia.
The EOI exercise for the property will close on May 17 at 3pm.
