The city-fringe district that behaves most like a prime one. At $2,770 psf it is transacting above several CCR districts — and on 748 deals, so that figure is well supported.
What the numbers say
Condominium transactions, 12 months to July 2026 (URA caveats). Rental medians, Q2 2026 (URA contracts). HDB figures are 4-room resale registrations for QUEENSTOWN, 12 months to July 2026 (data.gov.sg) — HDB publishes by town, not by postal district.
| Measure | Figure | Sample |
|---|---|---|
| Median private condominium | $2,770 psf · $2,034,550 median price | 748 transactions |
| Median rent (all sizes) | $4,800 / month | 1139 contracts |
| HDB 4-room, QUEENSTOWN | $1,010,000 | 295 transactions |
What moves price here
- This is a high-volume, high-price district — 748 condo transactions at a median $2,770 psf, the highest psf of any district measured here outside the Apartment-classified city core.
- Queenstown HDB is a million-dollar-flat epicentre. The 4-room median of $1,010,000 across 295 transactions is one of the highest in the country and is not an outlier effect.
- New launch supply distorts the median upward — check whether a given comparable is a new sale or a resale before reading anything into it.
Who it suits
Buyers who want city-fringe access with real neighbourhood character, and HDB owners here sitting on unusually strong equity.
What to check before you commit
- Conservation restrictions on the pre-war Tiong Bahru blocks
- New-sale vs resale in any comparable you’re shown
- Whether you’re paying a launch premium against nearby resale
