HDB flats have been shrinking in size over the years. More public housing needs to be built to accommodate Singapore’s growing population. Due to land scarcity, these homes need to be more compact, efficient, and carefully planned.
Buyers with larger families who require more space often turn to older HDB flats for greater unit variety. These flats tend to be in older estates and are more likely to have interesting floor plans.
This week, we compiled our favourite HDB listings above 1,700 sq ft you can buy right now.

This executive maisonette has one bedroom on the lower floor and three upstairs, all well-sized and bright. The levelled balcony extends the living area, making the space feel more open, while the living and dining areas remain clearly defined.
The unit is efficiently designed with minimal wasted space, and most walls can be reconfigured to suit your needs.
It is conveniently located within walking distance of the future Corporation MRT station, which will open in 2027, and within twenty minutes of Lakeside MRT.

This jumbo unit is made up of two adjoined three-room flats, offering four bedrooms and four bathrooms, including two ensuites. It has two separate entrances, and the access balcony has been purchased. The layout is flexible, with most walls able to be removed, including the wall between the two living rooms, which can be opened up to create a more connected, open-plan space.
The unit is conveniently located within walking distance of Clementi MRT station and Clementi Mall, as well as West Coast Food Centre, West Coast Plaza, and various eateries in the neighbouring HDB blocks. West Coast Park is also nearby, providing a recreational option for residents. This setup works well for families who want privacy while staying close together, or for owners looking to rent out part of the unit.

Located right next to Marsiling MRT station, this executive apartment offers excellent convenience. Various eateries and two supermarkets are within walking distance, as is Marsiling Park.
The unit features four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two ensuites. Its dumbbell layout eliminates unnecessary walkways, making the space highly efficient. A balcony at the entrance adds privacy, while the living and dining areas are neatly separated.
The huge open kitchen with an island enhances the sense of space in the living and dining areas. All four bedrooms are well-sized, and although one bedroom is irregularly shaped, it does not affect its functionality.

Why I like it
Under a fifteen-minute walk to Ang Mo Kio MRT station and Ang Mo Kio Hub, this executive apartment is well-connected. Daily conveniences are nearby, with Chong Boon and Teck Ghee Court markets and food centres within walking distance, as well as Bishan–Ang Mo Kio Park.
The unit combines two adjoined three-room flats with utility rooms, offering six rooms and four bathrooms, including two ensuites. It can be converted into a dual-key layout if preferred. Living and dining areas are spacious and well-separated, with room for a small study corner. The kitchen is large enough to be split into wet and dry areas, and the utility rooms behind it can be repurposed for various uses, including additional bedrooms.
Most walls can be hacked for easy reconfiguration, and a small foyer at the entrance adds privacy by keeping the living area from opening up immediately.
