This week, we’re taking a closer look at one of Singapore’s most talked-about HDB listings – the priciest flats currently on the market. Even if you’re not actively hunting for the most expensive units, it’s a fascinating way to see what sellers believe buyers are willing to pay in 2025. Keep reading as we break down and review these standout HDB homes.

Now let’s get on with the list of curated units this week!
Shortlists like this are a useful starting point, but the units that make the list aren't necessarily the ones that make the most sense for your budget, lifestyle or long-term plans.
The harder part comes afterwards: comparing the trade-offs, evaluating the numbers, and deciding which home is actually the best fit for your situation.
Over time, that's also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.

Why I like it
Just a three-minute walk from Queenstown MRT, this executive maisonette is super convenient and close to Mei Ling Market, Margaret Drive Hawker Centre, Dawson Place, and plenty of other local eats. A nearby park connector links to HortPark, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Labrador Park, and even the Singapore River – perfect for walks or jogs.
The four bedrooms are on the lower level, while living, dining, and kitchen spaces sit upstairs. The main door opens onto the upper floor, creating a clear separation between private and social areas. The living and dining areas are spacious, with a small study nook, and the kitchen is split into wet and dry zones with a service balcony.
Originally three bedrooms, one common room has been split into two, making it versatile. Natural light flows through the unit, keeping it bright and airy – a practical yet distinctive maisonette that stands out.

Why I like it
This 5-room flat, newly MOP, sits on a high floor with unblocked views of the city. It’s an 11-minute walk to Queenstown MRT, and food options are never far. Margaret Drive Hawker Centre, Dawson Place, and Mei Ling Market & Food Centre are all close by, plus the usual mix of local eats in the neighbouring HDB clusters.
Inside, the layout keeps living and dining spaces separate, with a living room large enough to add a study corner. The kitchen has its own service balcony, and the home shelter is cleverly tucked away to save space. Bedrooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows, letting natural light pour in and keeping the flat bright and airy throughout the day.
For those who enjoy the outdoors, a nearby park connector links in one direction to the Singapore River and Robertson Quay and in the other to HortPark, Telok Blangah Hill Park, and Labrador Park, offering plenty of options for walks or weekend runs.

Why I like it
This 4-room flat is perfectly located for city living, just under 15 minutes’ walk to Outram Park, Maxwell, and Tanjong Pagar MRT stations, with the CBD also within easy reach. Food options are plentiful in the area, from hawker favourites to cafes and restaurants.
Perched on a very high floor, the unit enjoys unblocked city views and plenty of natural light thanks to large window panels. The living and dining areas feel spacious, and the open kitchen layout adds to the airy, connected vibe. The kitchen itself is well-sized with ample storage and comes with a separate service balcony.
Thoughtful touches include a feature wall with display shelves cleverly hiding the home shelter entrance. All three bedrooms have wardrobes with mirrored doors that reflect light and make the rooms feel bigger, keeping the home bright and inviting throughout.

Why I like it
This 5-room flat is conveniently located within a 15-minute walk to Caldecott, Braddell, and Toa Payoh MRT stations, and just steps from Toa Payoh West Market & Food Centre, Toa Payoh Palm Spring Market, and Jackson Square. The surrounding HDB clusters offer plenty of additional food options, and Toa Payoh Park is also within walking distance.
Perched on a high floor, the unit enjoys unblocked views and abundant natural light. The living and dining areas extend onto a spacious balcony that runs the full length of the space, which could double as an alfresco dining area to free up space inside. A large mirrored wall in the dining area adds the feeling of extra space, while the open kitchen layout keeps the home airy and practical. The home shelter is tucked away in the kitchen, and the service yard has been cleverly adapted to extend the kitchen area.
All three bedrooms are large enough for double beds, with the master bedroom standing out for its extra space and private balcony. The master bathroom also features bay windows, a rare touch in HDB flats.

Why I like it
This 4-room terrace unit is less than a 10-minute walk from both Queenstown and Commonwealth MRT stations, and within easy reach of Margaret Drive Hawker Centre, Mei Ling Market & Food Centre, Tanglin Halt Market, and plenty of food options in the surrounding HDB clusters. A nearby park connector links to Hortpark, Telok Blangah Hill Park, and Labrador Park in one direction, and the Singapore River and Robertson Quay in the other.
The unit spans two levels, giving it the feel of a landed home. All three bedrooms are upstairs, offering added privacy, and the pitched roof makes the spaces feel more airy and open. Downstairs, the living and dining areas are huge, flowing out to a very sizable patio, while the master bedroom stands out for its generous size and comfort.
