It’s no surprise that homes in Singapore are getting smaller – cosy, some might say. But if you value room to stretch out without blowing the budget, this week’s picks are for you. We’ve rounded up 5 spacious HDB flats, each over 1,600 square feet, with prices starting from $800k.
Even better? These homes are conveniently located near everyday essentials. Think groceries, eateries, and even an MRT station.
However, many of these units are older, so you’ll want to factor in some renovation costs.

Why I like it
Nestled near the Tengah estate, this generously sized executive maisonette offers a blend of convenience and space. Within a 15-minute walk, you’ll find the 505 Jurong West Market & Food Centre, a host of neighborhood eateries, and a park connector leading to the beautifully revamped Jurong Lake Gardens.
For families, the block sits within the 1-kilometer radius of Rulang Primary School, a major draw for parents. That said, there’s currently no MRT station within walking distance. However, this will change with the completion of Corporation MRT Station (part of the Jurong Region Line) in 2027. With Tengah estate rapidly developing, future residents can also expect an expanded array of amenities in the years to come.
This apartment spans a spacious 1,604 square feet across two levels, with the upper level dedicated to the private spaces, housing all three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Meanwhile, the lower level features all the common areas – a sizeable living area, a squarish kitchen, utility room, and a balcony. Notably, the utility room is ventilated, making it versatile enough to serve as a small bedroom if needed.
Adding to the charm of the home is the quintessential double-volume ceiling in the balcony.

Nearby, Woodlands North Plaza adds a wet market, supermarket, and eateries to the mix, while Admiralty Park and the scenic Woodlands Waterfront provide green spaces and leisure options.
Spanning 1,603 square feet across two levels, the layout is unconventional due to the block design, but it remains functional. The upper floor features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, ensuring privacy, while the lower floor includes spacious living and dining areas, a kitchen with a WC, a utility room, and a balcony. The ventilated utility room can double as a small bedroom or storage space.

Why I like it
This Executive Maisonette in Bukit Panjang offers 1,614 square feet across two levels, reconfigured by the current owners for a more open layout.
Originally designed with four bedrooms (three upstairs, one downstairs), the lower-floor bedroom was removed to create a larger living area, with the kitchen reworked to suit the updated design. The balcony’s double-volume ceiling adds a sense of openness, while a storeroom on the lower floor provides a practical storage area.
Bangkit LRT Station is located just 2 minutes away, connecting you to Bukit Panjang MRT in three stops. For those who prefer walking, Hillion Mall, Bukit Panjang Plaza, and the MRT are within a 15-minute stroll. Food options abound with the Bukit Panjang Hawker Centre & Market nearby. Plus, nature enthusiasts will love having Zhenghua Park and Chestnut Nature Park just a short walk away.

Why I like it
This Executive Maisonette sits conveniently by the PIE and just across from the up-and-coming Tengah community (near the newly launched Novo Place EC).
Yuhua Market & Hawker Centre, plus several local eateries within the nearby HDB clusters, ensure you’re never far from a good meal or your daily essentials. Chinese Garden MRT Station (East-West Line) is less than a 15-minute walk away, or, if walking isn’t your thing, the bus stop is close by.
For a breath of fresh air, there’s also a park connector leading to the revamped Jurong Lake Gardens.
At 1,603 square feet, this two-level Executive Maisonette is all about space and function.
Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and two bathrooms for privacy, while the lower floor has an expansive living and dining area, a large kitchen with a WC, and a ventilated utility room that can double as a study or small bedroom. The standout feature? The balcony, with its double-volume ceiling—a signature touch that EM lovers rave about.
The current owners have thoughtfully renovated the space, so it’s move-in ready. Highlights include an L-shaped kitchen counter and a walk-in wardrobe in the master bedroom.
The unit is in a low-rise, four-storey block, and while it’s on a lower floor, it still gets plenty of natural light.

This spacious Executive Maisonette is located within the Choa Chu Kang estate, just a 3-minute walk from Teck Whye LRT Station. It’s well-connected, with Teck Whye LRT Station providing a three-stop journey to Choa Chu Kang MRT Station (North-South Line) and Lot One, or two stops to Bukit Panjang MRT Station (Downtown Line), Hillion Mall, and Bukit Panjang Plaza.
If you prefer staying close to home, there are plenty of eateries and three supermarkets within the nearby HDB blocks. Additionally, the Rail Corridor is within walking distance, providing an ideal green space for outdoor activities.
The unit spans 1,657 square feet and features a practical layout with four bedrooms – three on the upper floor and one on the lower. The kitchen is spacious and comes with a WC for added convenience. A standout feature is the double-volume ceiling in the balcony, which is accessible from both the living area and the kitchen. Plus, there’s a handy storage area under the stairs on the first floor.
