Following last week’s roundup of the cheapest 4-room flats near MRT stations, this week we’re shifting focus to 5-room units—ideal for those who need more space, but don’t want to give up convenience.
These aren’t the flashiest homes on the market, but they offer solid value for their size and proximity to transport. If you’re looking for a larger flat within walking distance of an MRT station (without stretching your budget too far), here are five options that might just tick the right boxes.

1989A Jurong West Street 93

Why I like it
The west side may be better known for its industrial and commercial zones, but if you’re not fussed by that, you’ll find spacious and affordable homes here, like this 5-room flat in Jurong West.
Although the area is surrounded by some industrial buildings, it makes up for it with proximity to amenities. Pioneer MRT station (EWL) is just a short walk away, and there’s a food court right next to it for quick meals. You’ve also got Pioneer Mall and Jurong West Hawker Centre nearby, so daily essentials are covered. It’s also worth noting that this block sits close to the quieter, landed stretch along Yunnan Drive.
The unit spans 1,206 square feet and offers a functional layout. There’s even enough space in the dining area to set up a study corner if needed. While the living room isn’t a regular rectangle, the angled layout actually gives you more room to work with (rather than taking anything away).
One practical detail worth highlighting: the household shelter is tucked away in the kitchen, rather than in the living area. It’s a small touch, but it keeps the space looking clean and uninterrupted, so there’s no need for feature walls to conceal it.
All three bedrooms are well-sized too.

2667C Jurong West Street 65







$600,000
Attribute | Info |
Address | 667C Jurong West Street 65 |
Tenure | 99-year Leasehold |
Size | 1,184 SQFT |
$PSF | $507 PSF |
Developer | HDB |
TOP | 1998 |
Why I like it
Set within a well-connected pocket of Jurong West, this 5-room flat is within walking distance of Boon Lay MRT station (EWL) and Jurong Point, with Pioneer Mall and the nearby hawker centre offering added convenience.
Just across the street, a park connector provides easy access to Jurong Central Park and Jurong Lake Gardens—ideal for a weekend stroll or morning run. While it may not be the most central location for commuting into town, for those who prioritise space and proximity to daily amenities, this is one to consider.
Inside, the layout is efficient, with minimal space lost to corridors—particularly between the common areas and bedrooms. At 1,184 square feet, the flat offers generous common areas, and the inclusion of a balcony is a pleasant surprise, as it’s a relatively rare feature in the immediate area.
All three bedrooms are comfortably sized, and the kitchen—though not conventionally shaped—offers more flexibility than expected. Its angled layout doesn’t compromise functionality and even allows for the option of adding a dedicated service yard, if preferred.

3691A Choa Chu Kang Crescent








$618,000
Attribute | Info |
Address | 691A Choa Chu Kang Crescent |
Tenure | 99-year Leasehold |
Size | 1,184 SQFT |
$PSF | $522 PSF |
Developer | HDB |
TOP | 2001 |
Why I like it
If space and affordability are high on your list, this 5-room flat at Choa Chu Kang Crescent might be one to keep in view. It’s a bit of a longer walk to Yew Tee MRT (NSL), Yew Tee Point, and Yew Tee Square, but manageable if you’re not fussed by a slightly further stroll. The area is mostly residential, with a handful of eateries tucked within the surrounding HDB clusters.
The block sits along the park connector that links up with the Rail Corridor, which is a nice bonus if you enjoy cycling or the occasional weekend walk.
Inside, the layout is functional and makes good use of its 1,184 square feet. The living and dining areas are generously sized, and the unit opens out to a decent-sized balcony—something that’s increasingly rare in newer flats. It also brings in a good amount of natural light, which helps the space feel more open.
One of the more thoughtful touches is how all three bedrooms are tucked into a corner, which is great for privacy when guests are over. There’s even the option to fully enclose that part of the home if you’d prefer a clearer separation between living and resting areas.
The kitchen runs long and currently features an L-shaped cabinet that doubles as a laundry zone, though there’s enough room to set up a dedicated service balcony if that’s your preference.
Most of the internal walls are hackable too, so there’s flexibility to tweak the layout down the line.

4588A Montreal Drive








$619,000
Attribute | Info |
Address | 588A Montreal Drive |
Tenure | 99-year Leasehold |
Size | 1,184 SQFT |
$PSF | $523 PSF |
Developer | HDB |
TOP | 2000 |
Why I like it
Tucked away in a quieter corner of Sembawang and set beside a landed estate, this 5-room flat at Montreal Drive offers a more peaceful pace of living—yet remains within easy reach of everyday essentials.
Sembawang MRT station (NSL) and Sun Plaza are within walking distance, with Bukit Canberra and Sembawang Mart nearby for added convenience. Just down the road, the park connector leads to Sembawang Park and the beach—bringing a peaceful coastal element to your daily or weekend routine.
As a corner unit, there’s the added benefit of privacy.
Spanning 1,184 square feet, the layout is efficient and regularly shaped, making furniture planning straightforward. All three bedrooms are well-sized, too. The kitchen is long and functional, with space to create a separate service balcony if desired.

5308A Canberra Road








$620,000
Attribute | Info |
Address | 308A Canberra Road |
Tenure | 99-year Leasehold |
Size | 1,324 SQFT |
$PSF | $468 PSF |
Developer | HDB |
TOP | 1997 |
Why I like it
This 5-room flat at Canberra Road spans 1,324 square feet and offers a practical, well-considered layout. Both dining and living areas are spacious, and while the unit originally came with three bedrooms and a study, the study has since been hacked to create a more spacious living area.
That said, there’s enough room to put the wall back up or rework the layout to create an additional bedroom, if needed.
The kitchen is functional and comes with a separate service yard for laundry. Most internal walls can be hacked, so there’s flexibility to adapt the space over time to suit changing needs.
As for its location, it’s within a comfortable walking distance to Sembawang MRT station (NSL) and Sun Plaza, with Bukit Canberra just around the corner. For daily essentials, there’s also a good mix of eateries and amenities in the surrounding HDB clusters. And if you’re looking for greenery, the nearby park connector links directly to Sembawang Park and the beach.
