Sembawang Avenue: new HDB blocks and the surrounding neighbourhood

Sembawang Avenue’s HDB housing inventory describes a recently completed group of blocks within the wider Sembawang neighbourhood. All eight residential buildings in the official property file have a completion year of 2025. For someone getting to know the area, the immediate block layout and the routes to surrounding facilities are useful starting points.

HDB records 726 homes on the street: 220 two-room flats, 84 three-room flats, 238 four-room flats and 184 five-room flats. The four-room category is the largest, but smaller flats also form a substantial part of the mix. These figures describe the housing stock; completion year is separate from lease commencement and does not describe current availability.

Sembawang and Canberra MRT stations both serve the North–South Line. Property.co’s guide measures them at 680 metres and 713 metres respectively, in straight lines from the nearest residential blocks on Sembawang Avenue. Those minima may relate to different blocks and are not walking distances. Try the route from a particular entrance to the station entrance that suits your journey.

Bukit Canberra is one of the wider neighbourhood’s activity centres. URA describes it as an integrated sports and community hub near Sembawang MRT, combining spaces for food, fitness, care and greenery. It gives residents another destination beyond the station itself. The route and the relevant facility’s opening arrangements should be checked for the activity being planned.

Sembawang Primary School is identified among the schools around the street in the guide. Its own current contact page places it at 10 Sembawang Drive and names Sembawang MRT as the nearest station. For school-day routines, check the specific route from the home; a nearby-school list does not determine an individual address’s registration distance or admission priority.

For walking and cycling, the guide identifies the Yishun Park Connector in the surrounding area. NParks describes a three-kilometre route from Yishun Central along Yishun Avenue 2 to Canberra Link. That is the connector’s length, rather than a distance from a Sembawang Avenue flat, and the convenient access point depends on where a journey begins.

HDB’s registered resale file contains no Sembawang Avenue transactions for October 2025 to September 2026. Consequently, this completed twelve-month window provides no street-level resale median, range or price-per-square-foot sample to report. The absence of registrations should be kept separate from both the number of homes built and any current asking prices; it does not supply a value for an individual flat.
