Following last week’s news about HDB resale maisonettes and a loft unit breaching the million-dollar mark in Bukit Timah, Tampines and Punggol, we have another maisonette reaching that mark.
An HDB resale maisonette was recently sold for S$1.05 million. With the unit spanning 1,507 sq ft, the price psf works out to be S$697.
It is located on the fourth floor of Blk 60 Dakota Crescent, which is just a three-minute walk to Dakota MRT, and a five-minute walk to Old Airport Road Food Centre.
The flat is also within a 1km radius of Kong Hwa School.
Mothership quoted Ryan Ong from WTG Property, the seller’s property agent, as saying that the buyers are a young couple in their 30s. They were represented by Tee Wan Kee from ERA Realty Network.
With the lease for the maisonette starting in 1983, it has around 60 years of remaining lease.

Interestingly, the first flat in Geylang to breach the million-dollar mark was also a maisonette from the same block, located on the storey ranging from 10th to 12th floor. It was sold for S$1.01 million in December 2020.
HDB maisonettes are among the rarest types of HDB flats, as HDB no longer builds them. Unlike the typical HDB flat, they are double-storey flats, with the living, dining and kitchen on the first floor, and the bedrooms on the second floor.
At the same time, these maisonettes are not the only million-dollar flats in Geylang.
According to HDB transaction data, the previous record in the estate was held by a 5-room resale flat at Pine Close, which was sold for S$1.02 million in January this year.
This month also saw another million-dollar flat transaction for a 5-room resale flat along the same street at S$1.001 million.

SINGAPORE, 18 November 2025 – Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, ZACD Group and Jianan Capital are set to preview the highly anticipated Coastal Cabana Executive Condominium (EC) from Saturday, 6 December 2025. Located along Jalan Loyang Besar in Pasir Ris, the 748-unit coastal development enjoys a coveted position within walking distance to Pasir MRT and next to Downtown East, with select units offering panoramic sea views. Designed as a serene retreat within a vibrant neighbourhood, Coastal Cabana offers families the quiet luxury of generous living spaces, thoughtfully curated facilities, and seamless access to the estate’s recreational offerings.
Mr Du Dexiang, Managing Director of Qingjian Realty said, “Coastal Cabana is a much-needed addition for upgraders and aspiring homeowners who appreciate the vibrancy and convenience of this well-developed mature estate. At Qingjian, our focus has always been on building quality homes with enduring appeal that meet the needs of buyers. That commitment is reflected in what we have created at Coastal Cabana. With the uncertain future supply of EC developments in Pasir Ris over the next few years, this project is well-positioned to capture strong pent-up demand in the area.”
Mr Wang Xin, Director at Forsea Holdings added, “Coastal Cabana reflects our shared vision with Qingjian Realty of creating homes that combine thoughtful design with enduring quality. From its architectural composition to the landscaping and arrival experience, every detail has been planned to harmonise with Pasir Ris’ coastal character while providing residents with a sense of space and calm.”

A Well-Connected Coastal Home in the Heart of Pasir Ris
Located in one of Singapore’s most family-friendly neighbourhoods, Coastal Cabana offers residents the rare combination of coastal tranquillity and urban convenience. The neighbourhood’s abundant green spaces and family-friendly amenities have made it one of the East’s most desirable places to call home.
Situated next to Downtown East and just minutes from Pasir Ris Park and Pasir Ris MRT, the development enjoys close proximity to a full suite of shopping, dining, and recreational options.
In the coming years, the existing Pasir Ris MRT station will serve as an interchange connecting the existing East West Line (EWL) and the upcoming Cross Island Line (CRL) – offering residents island-wide connectivity and shorter travel times to key destinations and employment hubs.
Residents will also benefit from excellent road connectivity, with the Tampines Expressway (TPE) and Pan Island Expressway (PIE) offering easy access to the rest of the island.
An Evolving Neighbourhood That Offers Something for Everyone
As part of the ongoing rejuvenation of Pasir Ris, the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s (URA) Draft Master Plan 2025 will introduce new residential, commercial, and recreationalenhancements to Pasir Ris, further strengthening the estate’s appeal and bringing greater convenience, vibrancy, and long-term value to the neighbourhood.
Set within this evolving and self-contained estate, residents will already enjoy a wealth of amenities – from seaside leisure and nature parks, to lifestyle, shopping, dining, entertainment options, as well as reputable schools.
For those with school-going children, a strong network of educational institutions can be found nearby, including Casuarina Primary School and Pasir Ris Primary School within 1km of the development. Other nearby institutions include Elias Park Primary School, Hai Sing Catholic School, Meridian Primary School, Meridian Secondary School, Singapore Institute of Technology, and the Singapore University of Technology and Design.
Homes Designed for Every Generation
Set against the Pasir Ris coastline, Coastal Cabana is envisioned as a modern coastal sanctuary where families can enjoy generous spaces, sea views, and seamless connectivity.
Thoughtfully conceived as a rare coastal sanctuary with stunning sea views, Coastal Cabana is designed for comfort, connection, and convenience. The development pairs functional layouts with luxury resort-inspired facilities – offering residents the tranquillity of coastal living and the energy of a vibrant, well-established community.
The mix of three- to five-bedroom units cater to the evolving needs of families at every stage of life – from young couples starting out to multi-generational households seeking space, comfort and togetherness. All unit types are north-south facing and feature naturally ventilated kitchens and bathrooms, with selected layouts offering flexible spaces for use such as study or flexi areas that can be adapted to suit different lifestyle needs.
Homeowners can also expect quality interior finishes with kitchen appliances from Bosch and bathroom fittings from Hansgrohe.
A Space for Connection, Framed by Nature
Beyond their homes, residents can also look forward to over 65 family-oriented amenities, including a two-storey clubhouse, four swimming pools, and a sky terrace that offers sweeping sea views.
Coastal Cabana’s expansive clubhouse is envisioned as the heart of the development’s activity, providing residents with a multitude of options for connection, play, and relaxation.
The two-storey clubhouse is one of the most striking features of the development. Designed as an expansive social and recreational zone, it offers spaces for every member of the family – including four function rooms, a karaoke room, a music room, kids club, yoga studio, and a fully equipped gym. Beyond the clubhouse are other facilities including a tennis court, BBQ pavilions, outdoor fitness park, and adventure park for children.
Coastal Cabana’s collection of swimming pools are thoughtfully designed to suit different lifestyles, from family recreation to wellness and lap swimming.
The development’s collection of four swimming pools has been thoughtfully curated to cater to different lifestyles and generations – from the 50-metre Grand Pool and Lifestyle pool for serious swimmers, to the Family Pool designed for parents and young children, and the Wellness pool with spa facilities and aqua gym for leisure and relaxation. This deliberate separation of spaces allows residents to enjoy both tranquillity and connection, echoing the development’s vision of harmonious living.
Complementing the range of facilities, the development is also distinguished by its landscaping and architectural concept, which draws inspiration from tranquil European gardens – reflected in its symmetry, manicured hedgerows, and elegant vertical features that frame the facades.
The Grand Boulevard forms the centrepiece of Coastal Cabana’s arrival experience, leading residents and guests through a resort-inspired sequence from the drop-off area to the main lobby.
