More on this: what each unit type would cost, and how the prices compare
What this does not tell you
- The price of any unit. Only starting prices have been announced: from $2,608 psf for a 2-bedroom, $2,643 psf for a 3-bedroom and $2,737 psf for a 4-bedroom.
- Whether your child would get a Primary 1 place. That depends on the registration phase, the school's demand that year and the distance from your own address.
- Walking times. Distances here are straight-line. Routes on foot are longer.
- Whether Thomson Reserve suits you, or whether to buy. That depends on your own plans, budget and loan, which this note does not know.
Method and data notes
Project facts. Tenure, street, developers, completion dates and unit mix are from the developers' published sales materials. Planning area and plot ratio are from URA's Master Plan. The land price is as EdgeProp reported it on 26 October 2024. The Cross Island Line interchange at Bright Hill and its 2030 opening are from LTA (30 March 2022 and 4 March 2026).
Unit types. Each type's size and number of homes are from the developers' published floor plans and unit listings. A type's share is its homes over all 1,268 homes, rounded to 0.1%.
Distances. Straight-line, computed from OneMap locations: from the centre of the site to each MRT station's nearest exit, to each school's location and to each amenity's location. Distances under 1 km are rounded to the nearest 10 m, and distances of 1 km or more to 0.1 km. Schools are from MOE's school list as OneMap holds it.
Amenities. Shopping malls and supermarkets are from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors), read 14 October 2026. Childcare centres are from ECDA's list of centres, read 14 October 2026, each located from its postal code on OneMap. GP clinics are from MOH's CHAS clinic list, whose records are dated 2021, so some may have moved or closed. Only places within 1 km of the centre of the site are considered.
