That new plot of HDBs are one of the best bargain you can get now . Just next to MRT, surrounded by condos and landed houses not too far away. Near to sufficient amenities. All for very low prices.
Of course, its location is far away from city centre, but if you want cheap and quiet and value for money this new town is a good choice.
Driving in future can also use the north south expressway to bypass the busy Yishun roads.
Agreed... Why buy near mrt when you get bto next to MRT... Near is still too far..

a little out of place but very quiet place, not too convenient for shops.

Well as someone been going there at least once a month.

I can say if u bbfa or if u no life dun go town area this place is okay, since gt north point but

Is damn ulu, driving from there to any part not north need 20 mins, and if town need 30-40 mins driving.

If public transport at least an hour and a half to town (if u dun stay near or beside mrt station, or u just nice swee swee dun need wait for bus)

Edit reason: cause i brain dmg + fake news

Lol. ****-town.
Not linked to any expressway. Mrt also in middle of nowhere. Only have all the no-name tiny malls. You want slightly more decent malls you need to travel either to north point or causeway point, both of which aren’t in Sembawang.
If you perm WFH and don’t need to visit rest of Singapore, can consider.

but tiagong that the amenities are more than bishan's
All other amenities like Polyclinic, hawker centers, swimming pool will be built at bukit canberra near sembawang mrt liao in the next few years. If want shopping can go yishun. At canberra itself, there's sembawang park, quaint eating places near the park itself and a small shopping Centre at canberra mrt.

So what's there not to like. All the amenities is just 1 mrt stop away max. Not to mention the peace and quiet. . It's actually the best of both modern and nature living without paying through your nose😊😊😊
