The High-Floor Premium in Sembawang
Floor level is one of the most significant price factors in Sembawang's HDB market. For 4-room flats, the data shows a clear staircase pattern: units on floors 22 TO 24 sell for a median of S$500,000, while ground-floor units (19 TO 21) sell for S$422,000. That is a 18% premium for higher floors, or roughly S$78K more in absolute terms.
This premium reflects several factors: better ventilation and natural light, reduced noise from ground-level activity, improved views (especially for blocks near parks or open areas), and a perception of privacy.
