Yong Siak Street: a focused housing inventory and careful use of resale evidence

Yong Siak Street’s HDB property-inventory entry is unusually focused: one residential record, Block 78, with 48 homes when checked on 19 October 2026. The entry carries a 1937 completion-year label and a height of five storeys. It is the scope of this guide’s recorded housing data, rather than a count of every building, property or ownership arrangement along Yong Siak Street.

The inventory classifies eight homes as three-room and 40 as four-room sold flats. The larger four-room category shapes the recorded mix, but the room label alone does not supply a floor area or establish a home’s exact layout. Check the actual property documents, tenure and lease details alongside an advertised floor plan before choosing comparable homes.

No Yong Siak Street resale registrations appear in the HDB transaction dataset for the complete October 2025–September 2026 window. A median, price range or trend cannot be derived from an empty street sample. This statement concerns that dataset and period; it does not measure transactions in every property category or say whether a home is available to buy.

The inventory’s 1937 completion label and the transaction dataset answer different questions. The first describes the included building record; a sale record would provide a particular flat’s model, area, floor band and lease commencement. Without such a registration in this window, a buyer needs separately verified comparable evidence rather than borrowing a nearby street’s median as a Yong Siak Street price.

Property.co identifies Tiong Bahru, EW17, and Havelock, TE16, among the surrounding rail references, on the East–West and Thomson–East Coast lines respectively. Compare the route from the actual entrance and the connections needed for a regular journey. The station list is an orientation aid, not a walking-time estimate or a guarantee of step-free access.

Zhangde Primary School confirms its current campus at 51 Jalan Membina. Use that address and current school information to investigate daily travel from the individual home. A nearby-school reference does not determine an official registration distance, admission eligibility or availability of a place; those matters require the appropriate address-specific checks.

Kim Pong Park provides a nearby-area recreation reference, with NParks locating it along Kim Pong Road and Kim Tian Road. The park’s open field, swings, nature playgarden and pavilion offer different activities from the residential street itself. Consult the current park map and the chosen entrance when planning a visit, rather than assuming a direct route from every property.
