A 1,184 sqft 5-room (Improved) HDB flat at Block 654C Jurong West Street 61 has closed at a record S$618k (or S$522 psf) for the neighbourhood. The previous highest price for a 5-room on the same block was sold at S$570k, or S$481 psf, in January 2022.
According to Glenn Jin Wong, the PropNex agent representing the seller, the corner unit is located on the top floor and is a 2-minute walk to Pioneer MRT station. In fact, thanks to its dumbbell layout, the way the owner used the available space of the unit is brilliant.
Based on the original floorplan, the owner had linked the common bedroom and master bedroom, and converted the central corridor into a walk-in wardrobe.

“For instance, when the owner first bought the place 12 years ago, the common and master bedrooms were adjacent to each other. The owner linked the two rooms together and converted the central corridor into a walk-in wardrobe, which leads to the master bathroom. The other end of the corridor was sealed up,” Wong shared.
The walk-in wardrobe was converted from the central corridor. The hall entrance end was walled up while the other end leads to the master bathroom.
As the unit was completed in 2002, it still has about 79 years remaining on its lease. This did not deter many young couples and singles in their 20s and 30s from immediately making an offer for the unit. However, the owner decided to hold out a little longer.
“There are many reasons why some homeowners decided to hold out despite receiving numerous offers. For some, it could be due to ensuring there are enough cash proceeds from the sale to repay their CPF and accrued interest as they approach 65 years old. In doing so, when they meet and maintain at least the Basic Retirement Sum in their CPF Retirement Account, they can draw from their retirement savings and enjoy a comfortable life.”
The living room is as expansive as the dining area.
The dining area leads to the common bedroom (that connects to the master bedroom) and the kitchen.
According to Wong, after marketing the apartment for three months, a young couple in their early 30s, who were direct buyers, made an offer of S$608k. They eventually settled for S$618k, paying a Cash-Over-Valuation of S$38k.
“What drew the buyers to the unit was how space was utilised to create a sense of airiness and the high ceiling (about 2.8-2.9 metres). They loved the place so much and wanted to live near their parents.”
Wong shared that the new homeowners intend to renovate the kitchen and change some of the flooring tiles.
While Jurong West Street 61 now has a new record for 5-room resale flats, breaching the S$600k mark for 5-roomers in the Jurong West area isn’t all that new.
There have been other 5-room HDB resale flats selling above S$600k, including DBSS Lake@Vista flats along Yuan Ching Road. In September 2022, a 1130-sqft 5-room (Improved) flat was sold for S$730k or S$646 psf. Earlier in August, another sold for S$805k, or S$712 psf. DBSS flats are different though, as they include gated access cards, a balcony extension and different room layouts.
Other notable resale transactions include several 5-room flats along Jurong West Street 52, Boon Lay Avenue and Kang Ching Road. For example, despite having about 60 years of lease left, 5-room flats at Blocks 517 at Jurong West Street 52 have consistently commanded price ranges between S$618k-S$688k (one even sold for S$750k in April 2022). One reason for this is that they’re next to the popular Rulang Primary School and Lakeside MRT.

Prices to start from S$1,639 psf, with a mix of 3- to 5-bedroom units ranging from 872 sq ft to 1,421 sq ft

Preview and e-application from 6 to 21 December 2025
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.”
The development comprises 16 residential blocks of 11 and 12 storeys, offering a mix of three- to five-bedroom units ranging from 872 sq ft to 1,421 sq ft. It provides a total of 748 car park lots and is expected to achieve vacant possession by 31 March 2029.
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.
The experience begins with each arrival home. The Grand Boulevard forms the heart of Coastal Cabana’s arrival experience – framing a resort-inspired flow that begins at the Grand Boulevard Lobby – an elegant drop-off area – and the adjacent Boulevard Lounge which serves as a grand welcome for guest entering the development. Upon entering the grounds, residents are greeted by a long reflective water corridor that creates a serene visual transition from the lively surroundings into a calm, contemplative space within the development.

Expansive green lawns and open play areas create welcoming spaces for children to play and for families to gather, encouraging outdoor recreation and community connection. Together, these elements create an environment that feels both tranquil and alive – a crafted sanctuary that changes in mood and scenery as one moves through it.
