But that idea is quickly changing a few months into 2025. Non-landed, 3-room flats have recently been making headlines for the rising prices, with more and more towns breaking their own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/tag\/ath-hdb-resale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ATH<\/a> records.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>So, what exactly is happening in the 3-room HDB market? You might want to know since some resale units are creeping towards the S$1 million mark now.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-table-of-contents yoast-table-of-contents\">\r\n<h2>Table of contents<\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-s-935k-3-room-flat-sets-new-ath-in-queenstown\" data-level=\"2\">S$935K 3-room flat sets new ATH in Queenstown<\/a>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-what-drives-the-high-price\" data-level=\"3\">What drives the high price?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-3-room-flats-along-dawson-road-lead-the-market\" data-level=\"3\">3-room flats along Dawson Road lead the market<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-why-are-buyers-willing-to-spend-big-on-smaller-flats\" data-level=\"3\">Why are buyers willing to spend big on smaller flats?<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-rising-price-trend-for-3-room-hdbs-in-singapore\" data-level=\"2\">Rising price trend for 3-room HDBs in Singapore<\/a>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-3-room-hdb-prices-have-outpaced-the-overall-market-growth-in-the-past-5-years\" data-level=\"3\">3-room HDB prices have outpaced the overall market growth in the past 5 years<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"#h-more-towns-are-quietly-breaking-their-own-3-room-ath-records\" data-level=\"3\">More towns are quietly breaking their own 3-room ATH records<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 id=\"h-s-935k-3-room-flat-sets-new-ath-in-queenstown\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">S$935K 3-room flat sets new ATH in Queenstown<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For the first time ever in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/neighbourhoods\/queenstown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Queenstown<\/a>&#8216;s history, a 3-room flat crossed the S$900K mark. A newly-MOP-ed, Premium HDB unit at Block 95 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/hdb\/skyparc-dawson-deFLHwU27zeDAhmBPhaZZWN9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SkyParc @ Dawson<\/a> has just changed hands in April 2025 for S$935,000. The price tag puts it only S$65,000 away from the million-dollar HDB club \u2014 a segment we rarely associate with 3-room flats.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This particular unit is situated between the 34th to 36th floors of the 43-storey block, spanning 710 sqft. With a sale that translates to S$1,317 psf, it changed the game for HDB resale prices in Singapore. Not only for Queenstown, the S$935K unit at SkyParc has also set a new national record for the most expensive 3-room HDB resale flat, if you exclude the landed terrace HDBs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This record-breaking sale came with another interesting detail: The typical remaining lease of a resale HDB flat is about 94 years. This unit, however, has a lease balance of 95 years and 7 months. It&#8217;s because SkyParc @ Dawson, which was completed around the middle of 2021, is part of the SERS exercise at Tanglin Halt.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The project&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/property-jargon-of-the-day-minimum-occupation-period-mop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Minimum Occupation Period<\/a> (MOP) starts being counted from either 7 years from the date of selection of the replacement flat or 5 years from the date of occupation, whichever is earlier. So it&#8217;s not unexpected that some units hit the resale market way earlier than typical flats.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <section id=\"portal-widget-tab-panel-6a0984a28db10\"

station.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Similar to the name, SkyParc @ Dawson is one of the rare estates where buyers are willing to pay sky-high prices for an HDB flat. This is not surprising as it has a fantastic location and stunning unblocked city views. There are 3 sky gardens within the blocks, something that even many private condos do not have.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Even without its Premium HDB status, being located in Queenstown is already enough of an answer to why it can be so expensive. This is one of the few towns, along with Toa Payoh and Kallang\/Whampoa, where million-dollar HDB transactions have become increasingly common.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>But still, a S$935K price tag for a 3-room flat is shocking news for most. That figure is nearly double the average price for 3-room flats in Queenstown. In the second quarter of 2025, the average price for such units only sits at around S$559,327.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>3-room resale prices in Queenstown have been rising significantly in the past few months. Compared to last quarter, the average price has been up by 4.40%. Looking further back, the jump from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 was even more pronounced \u2014 a 14.10% increase.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"877\" height=\"755\" class=\"wp-image-84767\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/graph-3.png\" alt=\"3-room resale prices in Queenstown\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/graph-3.png 877w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/graph-3-150x129.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 877px) 100vw, 877px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>These figures point to a steep and ongoing price escalation, especially considering that we&#8217;re only one month into Q2 2025. When compared with the islandwide 3-room market, which has seen more gradual growth of around 2% per quarter, the price increase looks even more aggressive.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 id=\"h-3-room-flats-along-dawson-road-lead-the-market\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">3-room flats along Dawson Road lead the market<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Queenstown remains a dream location for many homebuyers.

In comparison, 3-room flats are about 20% cheaper, with average prices around S$800 psf.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For some buyers, a 3-room flat offers better value, especially if they want to stay in a central location like Queenstown. It\u2019s a simple case of downgrading size without downgrading location. This is what some call the domino effect \u2014 as 4-room prices push higher, 3-room flats become the \u201cnext best thing,\u201d and prices follow suit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 id=\"h-rising-price-trend-for-3-room-hdbs-in-singapore\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rising price trend for 3-room HDBs in Singapore<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Let\u2019s try to put this in perspective. Before 2024, it was rare to hear of 3-room flats hitting the S$800K range, much less crossing S$900K. But now, we\u2019ve seen 2 deals breaching the S$900K mark within a few months.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Yes, there have been 2 transactions for 3-room HDB flats with a price tag nearing S$1 million so far.
