Inside A $80k Stylishly Renovated 4-Room HDB + Hougang RiverCourt Tour

Hougang RiverCourt was launched in the November 2015 BTO exercise alongside projects in Bukit Batok, Choa Chu Kang, Punggol, Sengkang and Toa Payoh (Bidadari).
At first glance, Hougang RiverCourt doesn’t seem to stand out – it’s in a non-mature estate and not even close to any MRT (Kovan or Hougang).
It also has just 285 units, which is definitely small all things considered.
Hougang RiverCourt does make up for its locational shortcomings though by having a neighbourhood centre integrated with the HDB development itself.
And when we say integrated, we mean it shares the carpark and rooftop garden with the development.
7 years since, Hougang RiverCourt (both the mall and the HDB development) is now fully-built, so how has this HDB with an Integrated Mall played out so far?
