District 21 (D21) covers Upper Bukit Timah, Clementi Park, and Ulu Pandan, and it’s one of the most varied districts. D21 is really not easy to categorise because it has the full range of landed housing, boutique condos, some larger mass-market condos, etc. If there’s one thing they all have in common, it’s a good amount of green space and family-oriented amenities.
For one- and two-bedders, D21 tends to draw a mix of investors and younger buyers. Investors are attracted by the rental potential from nearby educational institutions, while homeowners are drawn to the lower entry price compared to CCR districts, with a similar lifestyle setting.
