For families who need four proper bedrooms, moving closer to the city can quickly become expensive. At the $2.5 million mark, buyers may find themselves choosing between a newer but more compact unit, or looking further out for the amount of space they need.
The resale market, however, still offers some alternatives. Older developments in the city fringe can provide larger units and more practical family layouts; all while keeping residents within relatively easy reach of the CBD. This week, we looked at four-bedroom condos in this region asking below $2.5 million:

Why I like it
Located near both Boon Keng (NEL) and Potong Pasir (NEL) MRT stations, this development is also within reach of The Poiz Centre and various neighbourhood eateries. The nearby park connector leads towards Kallang Riverside Park, while St. Andrew’s Junior School is within 1 km.
The living and dining areas are nicely separated, with built-in bench seating helping to maximise the available dining space. The living room also opens onto a balcony, while the kitchen comes with a separate yard and WC. The home shelter is tucked within the kitchen rather than occupying part of the main living area.
All four bedrooms are grouped together in one corner of the home, creating greater privacy from the communal spaces. Buyers could potentially enclose the bedroom corridor to create even more separation. Two of the four bedrooms are ensuite, with a third common bathroom serving the rest of the home. The master bathroom also has an unusual full wall of windows, while the unit receives plenty of natural light overall.

Why I like it
Located near Bright Hill MRT station (TEL), this development is right beside Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and is also close to Lower Peirce Reservoir Park. There are various food options within the surrounding HDB estate, while Ai Tong School and CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls’ School are both within 1 km.
Both the living and dining areas are generously sized and clearly separated, with the living room opening onto a small balcony. Besides four bedrooms, the home also has an additional family area, providing useful flexibility as a study, play area or secondary communal space.
Two of the four bedrooms are ensuite, while a third common bathroom serves the rest of the home. The kitchen comes with a separate yard and utility room. Situated on a high floor, the unit also receives plenty of natural light.

Why I like it
Located near Marine Terrace MRT station (TEL) and 50A Marine Terrace Market, this development has plenty of food options within walking distance. It also sits along the park connector leading towards East Coast Park, while Tao Nan School is within 1 km.
The living and dining area opens onto a good-sized balcony with an unblocked view. Interestingly, the balcony can also be accessed directly from one of the common bedrooms, giving the outdoor space a little more flexibility.
The kitchen is relatively compact but functional, with the home shelter positioned inside it rather than within the communal spaces. This could also potentially function as additional pantry storage.
The original master bedroom and one common bedroom have been combined to form a much larger master suite. Another standout feature is the junior master, which has a double-volume ceiling and its own loft space, giving this home a rather different layout from the typical four-bedder.

Why I like it
Located near Ang Mo Kio MRT station (NSL) and AMK Hub, this development is also close to Ang Mo Kio Central Market & Food Centre. Ang Mo Kio Town Garden West is nearby, with the park connector providing a route towards Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park.
The living and dining areas are nicely separated, while the kitchen comes with a dedicated yard containing the home shelter and WC.
All four bedrooms are comfortably large enough to accommodate double beds, with the master bedroom being especially spacious. It also comes with its own balcony and a walk-in wardrobe leading towards the master bathroom, which has both a bathtub and a separate shower.
Although the unit is on a lower floor and faces the pool, full-height windows across parts of the home allow more natural light to enter and help keep the interior bright.

Why I like it
Located near Marine Terrace MRT station (TEL) and 50A Marine Terrace Market, this development has numerous food options within walking distance. The nearby park connector leads towards East Coast Park, while Tao Nan School is within 1 km.
This is a duplex penthouse with four bedrooms and an enclosed study that could potentially function as a compact fifth bedroom. The living and dining areas are nicely separated, with a large mirrored wall making the already generous dining space feel even larger. The open kitchen further adds to this sense of space and comes with a separate yard and WC, while the household shelter is also conveniently tucked within the kitchen.
One of the common bedrooms on the lower floor has a double-volume ceiling with its own loft space, adding another unusual element to the layout. The master bedroom comes with a private balcony, while its ensuite has both a bathtub and a separate shower.
Combined with plenty of natural light throughout the unit, the additional study, loft space and duplex configuration make this one of the more distinctive family-sized options on the list.
