HDB’s property information records 108 homes across three residential blocks on Eng Hoon Street, all completed in 1937. These figures describe the buildings included in Property.co’s street guide checked on 19 October 2026, rather than every property on the road. For a particular home, establish its actual tenure, lease and sale conditions independently of its appearance in the inventory.

The three recorded blocks are 56, 57 and 59, with 39, 27 and 42 homes respectively. Each is recorded as three storeys high. The source identifies homes and shops at Blocks 56 and 57, while Block 59 is recorded for homes. Investigate the specific building, entrance and level when comparing a listing; the street name alone does not describe the setting of every unit.

The inventory’s sold-flat categories comprise 38 three-room and 70 four-room homes, adding up to 108. No resale entry for Eng Hoon Street appears in the HDB registration series during the complete October 2025–September 2026 window, so that series cannot supply a street median or price range. This is a limit of the HDB dataset and period, not a claim that no property transactions occurred elsewhere in the market.

The National Library Board’s catalogue describes Eng Hoon Street as being in Tiong Bahru and records that its name commemorates Koh Eng Hoon. Its historical street-photograph collection provides a way to investigate the neighbourhood’s earlier building landscape. Those archive records do not establish the present condition, permitted use or sale terms of a particular property today.

Havelock MRT, TE16 on the Thomson–East Coast Line, is the nearest station reference in Property.co’s guide at about 412 metres from a recorded residential block. Outram Park interchange is another reference at about 659 metres. These are straight-line distances, may start from different blocks and do not represent walking times. Check the relevant entrance and route from the actual address.

Zhangde Primary School confirms its current campus address as 51 Jalan Membina. Property.co measures about 832 metres from the closest residential block on Eng Hoon Street in a straight line. Use the address and relevant gate to explore daily travel, while checking official school-registration rules separately; a street-level distance does not determine admission eligibility for a particular home.

Tiong Bahru Park is a neighbourhood recreation option along Tiong Bahru Road and Lower Delta Road. NParks describes a playground with a tilting train and lists wheelchair accessibility and elderly-friendly facilities. It is a separate destination from the older residential blocks: assess the practical route and current park information without treating the park’s facilities as evidence about a home’s own access arrangements.

Check the live listing box for homes on Eng Hoon Street, or browse Property.co’s Bukit Merah homes for sale and rent. Compare each listing’s asking price, floor area, layout, tenure and address-specific details, bearing in mind the limits of the street’s HDB resale sample.
