• Good Class Bungalows (GCBs) on Nassim Road command extraordinary prices—recently, a trio of GCBs sold for S$4,500 per sq ft in a S$206.7 million portfolio sale. The acquisition was explicitly for legacy planning and wealth protection .
• The area has long been home to dignitaries and elite—embassies, royalty, and high-net-worth entrepreneurs such as Eduardo Saverin, co-founder of Facebook, have resided here .

• Nassim Park Residences (15 Nassim Road): Completed in 2011 by UOL, this development has 100 units and is in demand—15 condos currently listed for sale .
• Nassim Mansion (40 Nassim Hill): A well-regarded freehold condo building from 1977, with 72 units and listed price range between S$2.7 million to S$17.25 million, or S$731–3,540 per sq ft .
4. Legacy Value Beyond Monetary Returns
