SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - The seller of a unit at Leighwoods, along Mount Sinai Rise, made the top gain of $1.9 million over the week of May 5 to 12. The 2,217 sq ft unit on the second floor was bought for $980,000 ($442 psf) in September 2005 and sold for $2.89 million ($1,299 psf) on May 11. The seller therefore made a 194% profit, or an annualised profit of 8% over almost 15 years.
Located in District 10, Leighwoods was completed in 1985. The freehold development is a five-minute drive to Dover MRT Station on the East-West Line.
The second top gain made over the week — a 153% profit of $1.1 million — was at Euro-Asia Park, along Woodleigh Close. The 1,421 sq ft unit on the third floor was purchased for $720,000 ($507 psf) in May 2009 and sold for $1.82 million ($1,281 psf) on May 8. This means that the seller made an annualised profit of 9% over 11 years.
Euro-Asia Park, in District 13, comprises 163 freehold units. It was completed in 1996 and is a nine-minute walk to Woodleigh MRT Station on the North-East Line.
