Think you can’t get an apartment in the CBD for under $1M? Think again! This unit at Spottiswoode Park Estate is going at just $888,000. The property is located approximately 10 minutes away from Outram Park MRT, and the upcoming Cantonment MRT will be located just behind it. On the not-so-bright side, there aren’t a ton of food options or amenities in the area, so we’d say this place is more suited for people who have their own vehicle, and can drive around.
