Kim Tian Place’s HDB inventory records 905 homes in seven residential blocks, checked on 19 October 2026. One block was completed in 1969, two in 1983 and four in 1999. Those separate building periods matter when comparing homes, and the inventory’s completion year should not be confused with a particular flat’s lease commencement. Start with the exact block and property documents rather than one street-wide age assumption.

The recorded sold stock consists of 224 four-room and 393 five-room homes, a total of 617. A further 288 one-room rental homes are recorded at Block 124. Keeping those categories separate gives a clearer account of the neighbourhood: the rental component is not resale supply, and the total housing count is not a count of properties currently available for purchase.

HDB registered 15 Kim Tian Place resales in the complete October 2025–September 2026 window. Six four-room sales had a median of S$950,000 and ranged from S$850,000 to S$1,050,000. Nine five-room registrations had a median of S$1,130,000, with prices from S$985,000 to S$1,200,000. Both groups are limited historical samples rather than a valuation of any home advertised today.

The four-room registrations were Model A flats measuring 90 to 101 square metres, all with lease commencement recorded as 2001. The five-room records covered 115 or 131 square metres, included Improved and Model A flats, and had lease starts in 1984 or 2001. A shared room count therefore hides differences in area, model and lease cohort; match these recorded attributes before using a sale as a comparison.

Tiong Bahru MRT on the East–West Line and Havelock MRT on the Thomson–East Coast Line are the surrounding rail references in Property.co’s guide. Its straight-line minima from the nearest residential block to each station are around 259 metres and 781 metres respectively. They may start from different blocks and are not walking distances. Check the relevant entrance, crossings and route from the actual home.

Zhangde Primary School’s current official contact page confirms its campus at 51 Jalan Membina. This provides a specific address for investigating school-day travel alongside work and other journeys. The school’s presence in a neighbourhood guide does not establish admission eligibility or a flat’s official registration distance; check the exact address and current rules separately.

For recreation beyond the housing blocks, NParks lists Tiong Bahru Park along Tiong Bahru Road and Lower Delta Road. The 3.3-hectare park has a distinctive tilting-train playground. Consult the current park map and notices when planning a visit, and assess the chosen entrance and route from the particular block rather than assuming a direct connection from the street name.
