Million-Dollar HDB Flats by Town

Central Area leads all HDB towns with 186 million-dollar transactions and a record price of S$1,600,000. Central, mature estates dominate this list because they combine large flat types (maisonettes, DBSS), long remaining leases, and proximity to MRT stations and the CBD.

What Makes an HDB Flat Worth S$1 Million?

Million-dollar HDB flats share several common characteristics. The most important factor is size: maisonettes (two-storey HDB units no longer built since 1995), DBSS flats (developed by private developers with higher-spec finishes), and executive flats make up the majority of S$1M+ transactions.

Remaining lease matters significantly. Flats with 80+ years of remaining lease command higher prices because they allow full CPF usage and bank financing. Location is the third factor: mature estates near MRT stations, within walking distance of the CBD or popular schools, consistently achieve higher valuations.

Floor level also plays a role. High-floor units with unobstructed views can command premiums of 15-25% over low-floor units in the same block. Renovation quality, while subjective, can add S$50,000-S$100,000 for extensively renovated units.
