Hougang Street 21’s HDB inventory records 641 homes across ten residential blocks, checked on 20 October 2026, Singapore time. Completion labels range from 1982 to 1990: Block 201 carries 1982, five blocks carry 1983, Block 211 carries 1984, and Blocks 220, 221 and 222 carry 1990. Recorded heights span four to fifteen storeys, so a street-level address can refer to quite different buildings.

Executive flats form the largest recorded category, with 312 homes, alongside 105 three-room, 124 four-room and 100 five-room flats. All are in sold categories; the inventory records no rental-category homes. Executive stock is spread across Blocks 210, 221, 222, 235 and 237, while Block 220’s 92 homes are all four-room. The inventory identifies housing categories rather than current listing availability or the internal model of every flat.

Twelve sales were registered in the complete October 2025–September 2026 window. Nine executive registrations had a median of S$1,208,000 and ranged from S$1,000,000 to S$1,450,000. Three five-room registrations had a median of S$988,888 and a S$980,000–S$1,040,000 range. No three-room or four-room registrations occurred in this window. The observed groups are small and their historical prices are not current asking prices or valuation bands for the street’s entire stock.

The executive sample contained eight Maisonettes and one Apartment, spanning 146–156 sq m with lease starts in 1984 or 1992. The three five-room records were all Model A-Maisonette flats at Block 231, measuring 140–142 sq m with 1984 lease starts. Their registrations occurred in January, August and September 2026. Preserve the recorded five-room and executive categories even though both samples include maisonette models; model names, areas and lease cohorts provide additional context for comparing an actual home.

Property.co records Kovan MRT, NE13, at a minimum straight-line separation of 196 m from Hougang Street 21’s residential blocks and Serangoon, NE12/CC13, at 1,373 m. LTA identifies Kovan on the North East Line and Serangoon as its interchange with the Circle Line. The minima can start at different blocks and do not describe walking distance, sheltered access or journey time. Check the station entrance and road crossings from the chosen home.

Xinghua Primary School publishes its address as 45 Hougang Avenue 1. Property.co records a minimum straight-line separation of 229 m from Hougang Street 21’s residential blocks to the school. That map reference helps locate a destination for route checking, but it is not an official registration-distance assessment and does not establish admission eligibility, priority or available places.

NParks describes Jalan Pelikat Park Connector as stretching from Kampong Sireh to Hougang Avenue 3, with a route along Jalan Pelikat and Hougang Street 22 and a full length of 1.49 km. Property.co records a minimum straight-line separation of 126 m from Hougang Street 21’s residential blocks to the mapped connector. Neither that separation nor the connector’s full length establishes the route from a flat to an entrance; check current maps, crossings and notices.

Explore Hougang Street 21 homes in the street listings box, which updates with matching published Property.co listings, or browse Hougang homes for sale and rent. Compare the particular flat’s recorded type, maisonette or apartment model, area, lease and condition with the appropriate dated sample, keeping the three five-room observations separate from the nine executive transactions.
