Hougang Avenue 3: older HDB stock, lease differences and three-room resales

Hougang Avenue 3’s recorded HDB inventory spans several block groups, including Blocks 1–2, 6–7, 15–25 and 247–254. Official property information checked on 20 October 2026 records 23 residential blocks with 3,056 homes, completion years from 1974 to 1984 and building heights from four to twenty storeys. The broad completion range makes the individual block and lease especially relevant when comparing homes on this avenue.

The inventory includes 1,780 three-room, 782 four-room, 243 five-room and three executive homes in the sold-stock categories. Another 248 homes are recorded in HDB rental-stock categories: 247 two-room homes at Block 25 and one three-room home at Block 2. These categories describe the housing inventory, not current market rental listings. They should not be combined with the sold-stock figures when interpreting resale activity.

There were 53 registered resales during the complete October 2025–September 2026 window. Three-room flats accounted for 34 transactions, with a median of S$421,500 and prices from S$350,000 to S$460,000. Fourteen four-room registrations had a median of S$454,000 and a S$390,000–S$560,000 range. The overlap in price ranges shows why room count alone is insufficient when choosing a comparable.

Five five-room sales had a median of S$688,000 and ranged from S$642,000 to S$715,000. Four of those records were Improved flats and one was Standard, spanning 120–125 square metres. Three-room sales covered New Generation and Improved models at 59–88 square metres, while four-room sales used the same two model names at 82–104 square metres. No executive resale was registered in this October 2025–September 2026 sample.

Lease commencement years in the three- and four-room transaction samples ranged from 1975 to 1988; the five-room sample ran from 1975 to 1985. Across the three-room rows, recorded remaining leases at registration ranged from 48 years 2 months to 61 years 6 months. Those differences sit behind the street’s aggregate prices. Check the actual lease, model, area and grouped floor band rather than assuming that nearby blocks share the same lease history.

Property.co identifies Hougang MRT, NE14, at a minimum straight-line distance of 612 metres from the residential inventory, and Kovan MRT, NE13, at 697 metres; LTA’s North East Line map confirms the station codes. These minima may come from different blocks and are not walking distances. LTA’s Service 146 route-extension notice, effective 14 December 2025, also identifies stops on Hougang Avenue 3 within the loop between Woodleigh Bus Interchange and Kovan Hub. Check current stop directions and service information for the selected block.

Xinghua Primary School confirms its campus at 45 Hougang Avenue 1. The address supports checking a specific school journey, but does not establish registration distance, admission priority or an available place. NParks describes the 4.4-kilometre Hougang Avenue 3 Park Connector as running along Avenue 3 before ending at Airport Road. Its full length is the connector’s stated extent, not the distance from a flat; locate the intended access point and crossings separately.
