If you’re chasing space without crossing into condo territory, older jumbo HDB flats remain the go-to option. They’ve always been limited in supply, a relic of a period when HDB experimented with extra-large layouts. And since no new ones are being built, the pool is fixed. We went through the resale listings and picked out five of the biggest units available right now.
And if you’ve been exploring older, larger HDBs as an alternative to condos, it’s worth seeing how their prices, turnover rates, and demand patterns differ across towns. Tell us what you’re considering, and we’ll connect you with one of our trusted partner agents who can walk you through the real numbers behind these bigger flat types, and how they compare to other spacious options in the market.
