Havelock Road

Havelock Road: older and newer HDB homes, rail access and resale prices

Havelock Road combines markedly different HDB building periods. The property inventory checked on 19 October 2026 records 1,786 homes in 11 residential blocks: one block completed in 1964, one in 1966, two in 1982 and seven in 2011. These dates describe the buildings, while an individual flat’s lease commencement and remaining lease require their own check. Comparing the exact block is more useful than treating the street as a single housing cohort.

The recorded sold stock comprises 60 two-room, 628 three-room, 611 four-room and 309 five-room flats, plus 108 studio apartments listed as a separate category. There are also 68 two-room and two three-room rental flats. Keep those classifications distinct when researching a purchase: the total number of homes is neighbourhood stock, and neither rental units nor studio apartments should simply be added to ordinary resale choices.

HDB’s complete October 2025–September 2026 registration window contains 47 Havelock Road resales. The 24 three-room transactions had a median registered price of S$815,000 and ranged from S$360,000 to S$865,000. That wide range combines flats with recorded lease starts in 1969 and 2013. A shared room count therefore does not make all these flats close substitutes; compare lease, area and the particular block before selecting comparable sales.

The 17 four-room registrations had a median of S$1,100,000, with prices from S$900,000 to S$1,160,000. Six five-room sales had a median of S$1,269,000 and ranged from S$975,000 to S$1,468,888. The five-room result is a smaller sample spanning more than one lease cohort. All these figures are dated transaction evidence rather than current asking prices or a valuation of a home advertised today.

Havelock MRT on the Thomson–East Coast Line and Tiong Bahru MRT on the East–West Line are useful rail reference points. Property.co calculates approximately 51 metres to Havelock and 332 metres to Tiong Bahru, using the straight-line distance from the nearest residential block on the street to each station. These are not walking distances or a promise for every Havelock Road block; check the actual entrance, crossings and route from the home.

Alexandra Primary School’s current official contact page gives its address as 2A Prince Charles Crescent. This confirmed campus location can help households plan school-day journeys alongside work and childcare. A nearby school marker or street-level distance does not establish admission priority or eligibility; assess the particular home and consult the current school and MOE information separately.

For recreation, NParks places the 3.3-hectare Tiong Bahru Park along Tiong Bahru Road and Lower Delta Road. The life-sized tilting train is the playground’s distinctive feature. Treat the park as a separate destination to explore, using the current park map and the route from the chosen block; a neighbourhood label does not describe every entrance, crossing or everyday journey.
