A 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo with a pool view from around $1.2XM — at 6 Mar Thoma Road.
The Elysia is a boutique 40-unit, 999-year development in District 12, completed in 2005.
But what caught my attention isn't just the price.
THE LOCATION
You're positioned between the Boon Keng and Potong Pasir areas, with multiple bus services nearby. Depending on the mapping source and route used, Boon Keng MRT is roughly 0.9–1.3km away, so I wouldn't call this an MRT-at-your-doorstep property.
For drivers, the stronger advantage is the connectivity towards the PIE and CTE, giving relatively straightforward access to different parts of Singapore.
Around the area, you also have everyday amenities and supermarkets, with The Poiz, Bendemeer Shopping Mall and Shaw Plaza among the nearby shopping options identified by SRX.
Families also have several schools in the wider vicinity, including Bendemeer Primary, Bendemeer Secondary, St Andrew's Junior and St Andrew's Secondary.
THE HOME
2 Bedrooms
2 Bathrooms
Pool view
999-year tenure
Boutique 40-unit development
District 12
From around $1.2XM
The development itself comes with a swimming pool, gym, covered parking and security.
So the proposition isn't simply “cheap condo.”
It's:
How much home, tenure and convenience can $1.2XM still buy you today?
If you don't need a brand-new development or an MRT directly downstairs, The Elysia is an interesting resale alternative to put on your comparison list.
Would you choose an older 999-year condo in a central location, or pay more for something newer?
