In this article (3)
A new national resale record has been set in Queenstown, Singapore, after a two-bedroom public housing flat fetched a whopping SGD696,000 (US$539,000). The sale, completed on July 16, involved a unit located on a high floor at SkyParc @ Dawson. This transaction didn’t just set a record for the highest price for a two-room Housing and Development Board (HDB) resale flat; it also appears to have established a new national record for the price per square foot for this type of flat.
Sky-High Sale
The 506-square-foot flat that set the new record is situated between the 31st and 33rd floors and was sold for approximately SGD1,375 per square foot. This unheard-of sum represents the highest price per square foot ever recorded for a two-bedroom HDB resale flat in Singapore. SkyParc @ Dawson, where the flat resides, comprises three high-rise residential blocks at 94 to 96 Dawson Road, with heights ranging from 34 to 43 stories. The record-breaking flat is located in block 95, which stands at 40 stories high. The upper floors offer stunning panoramic views of the surrounding greenery, the city skyline, and neighboring low-rise districts.
Property Features
The lease for the flat began in 2021, with approximately 94 years and four months remaining as of July 2026. This gives potential buyers a significantly longer lease than many older resale flats in Queenstown. The SkyParc @ Dawson development offers a blend of commercial, recreational, and community facilities. On the ground floor, residents have access to a minimart, two retail shops, and a café facing Dawson Road. The complex also features a preschool, adding convenience for families with young children. Additional amenities include fitness zones, sheltered communal areas, bicycle parking, and a jungle-themed playground. The estate is further embellished with murals and landscaped common spaces, giving it a unique character compared to a typical residential development.
