Why Are These Freehold Landed Properties $3M and Below?
So what makes these freehold landed properties more ‘affordable’?
Despite being freehold, the landed properties on this list consist of terrace houses, cluster homes , and townhouses. These are considered to be more affordable types of landed housing, despite still being larger than most high-rise residential homes.
Secondly, these properties are also located in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Outside Central Region (OCR). Though they are priced slightly below properties in the Core Central Region (CCR), they offer units that are a good mix between price and size. And despite being further away from the city, they’re fairly accessible via MRT and bus, whilst also located in a quaint and family-friendly neighbourhood surrounded by schools, eateries, markets, and low-density housing.
If you think $3 million is out of your budget, why not check out these landed properties that are $2 million or less? Although some of the properties are on 99-year or 999-year leases, and they’re located even further away, they’re great alternatives if you want to live in a landed house that’s away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Plus, one benefit of buying a landed property is that you can tear down the house and rebuild it based on your taste and requirements.
