Million-dollar flats are no longer a rarity, but not all of them offer the same value. This week, we’re looking specifically at renovated HDB units that are within walking distance of an MRT station, where the price tag is backed up by location, layout, and move-in-ready condition. These homes stand out not just for their finishes, but for how well the spaces have been reworked to suit modern living:

588B Ang Mo Kio Street 52

Why I like it
This is a very well-located DBSS unit, sitting close to Ang Mo Kio MRT and AMK Hub, with both Cheng San and Chong Boon markets within walking distance. Ang Mo Kio Town Garden East is also nearby, which adds a bit of greenery to an already convenient area.
The living and dining areas are generously sized and open out to a proper balcony with a planter. Sliding glass doors allow plenty of natural light to flow into the main living space, while still giving the option to separate indoor and outdoor areas. The open kitchen, complete with an island counter, helps the living area feel even more spacious and works well for households that cook and entertain regularly.
All three bedrooms come with bay windows, with the master enjoying an additional planter. Both bathrooms are well sized, and the kitchen comes with a separate service yard and home shelter. A practical DBSS layout that’s increasingly hard to find.

2103B Bidadari Park Drive



$1,250,000

| Address | 103B Bidadari Park Drive |
| Size | 1,001 sq ft |
| $PSF | $1,249 |

Why I like it
Location is the big draw here. You’re within range of both Potong Pasir MRT and Woodleigh MRT, with The Poiz Centre, Woodleigh Mall, a coffee shop, and a supermarket all close by. The unit also sits along the Bidadari Greenway, with Alkaff Lake and Bidadari Park just a short stroll away.
The unit sits on a high floor and gets plenty of natural light. One of the bedrooms has been hacked to create a dedicated dining area, which keeps the living and dining zones clearly separated. A built-in bench in the dining space helps maximise seating without taking up too much room.
The open kitchen with an island counter works well for quick meals, while the home shelter is neatly tucked away. The use of different wood tones throughout the unit adds warmth and gives the home a cohesive layout.

394 Dawson Road





$1,300,000
| Attribute | Info |
| Address | 94 Dawson Road |
| Size | 947 sq ft |
| $PSF | $1,373 |
| TOP date | 2021 |
Why I like it
This is a strong city-fringe option, located close to Queenstown MRT. There are supermarkets and eateries within the surrounding blocks, with Margaret Drive Hawker Centre and Marketplace just a little further away. The nearby park connector also links you toward Hort Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Labrador Park, or in the other direction toward the Singapore River.
This is a newly MOP four-room flat that enjoys an unblocked view overlooking greenery toward the city centre. The living and dining areas are nicely segregated, and the open kitchen with a counter helps the dining space feel more open and flexible. A large mirror panel on the home shelter door further enhances the sense of space.
The bedroom next to the master has been hacked to create a larger master suite with a generous closet area. This layout will appeal to buyers who want to emphasise one large primary, master bedroom.

4147 Simei Street 2





$1,150,000
| Attribute | Info |
| Address | 147 Simei Street 2 |
| Size | 1,657 sq ft |
| $PSF | $694 |
| TOP date | 1987 |
Why I like it
This executive maisonette is close to Simei MRT and Eastpoint Mall, with Upper Changi MRT also within walking distance. It’s a good option for buyers who want a larger home without giving up convenience.
The living and dining areas are well separated, and the standout feature is the huge balcony that can be accessed from both the living area and the kitchen. With its double-volume ceiling and near full-height windows, the balcony brings in an abundance of natural light and makes the entire lower level feel bright and airy.
The open kitchen with an island counter works well for casual meals, and there’s a built-in shelf and display cabinet tucked under the staircase. All three bedrooms are located on the upper level, which improves privacy, and the overall design carries a modern farmhouse vibe that’s quite unique.

553 Commonwealth Drive



$1,000,000
| Attribute | Info |
| Address | 53 Commonwealth Drive |
| Size | 947 sq ft |
| $PSF | $1,056 |
| TOP date | 2013 |
Why I like it
This unit is very close to Commonwealth MRT, with Tanglin Halt Market close by and Commonwealth Crescent Market within walking distance. Daily amenities, supermarkets, and eateries are all readily accessible, and the Rail Corridor is also nearby.
The living and dining areas are spacious and flexible. One bedroom has been hacked to create a multi-purpose space, while the remaining two bedrooms have been combined into one large bedroom with a study area and walk-in closet. This setup works well for buyers who want fewer but more generous rooms, and the layout can be reversed if needed.
The kitchen comes with a separate service yard, and the use of glass doors throughout the unit helps the space feel more open. The predominantly white finishes and light wood tones are quite timeless, so the design won’t go out of date.
