Silat Avenue: HDB flat mix, small resale samples and Circle Line connections

Silat Avenue’s recorded HDB stock consists of four residential blocks and 269 homes, checked on 19 October 2026. Blocks 147, 148, 149 and 150 are all listed as completed in 1982. The buildings are not identical in scale: Blocks 147 and 150 are recorded at four storeys, while Blocks 148 and 149 have 13. Compare the specific building and entrance when assessing a home’s setting.

The inventory contains 197 three-room, 65 four-room and four five-room sold flats, together with three executive units. Three-room homes dominate the recorded stock. The smaller five-room and executive categories describe housing inventory, not a broad set of current purchase options; an individual property’s floor area, lease and documents remain more useful than its room label alone.

Six Silat Avenue sales appear in HDB’s complete October 2025–September 2026 registration window. Four three-room transactions had a median of S$454,000 and ranged from S$420,000 to S$488,000. Two four-room registrations had a midpoint median of S$641,500, spanning S$620,000–S$663,000. These are thin historical samples, especially the two-sale four-room group, rather than reliable street-wide price benchmarks.

All six registrations were New Generation flats with lease commencement recorded as 1982. The three-room homes measured 67 square metres. Both four-room sales were at Block 149: a 93-square-metre unit on storeys 13–15 registered in February 2026 at S$663,000, and a 96-square-metre unit on storeys 07–09 registered in August at S$620,000. The differing areas, dates and floors do not isolate a price effect.

Property.co’s current rail references include Cantonment (CC31) and Keppel (CC30). LTA confirms that Circle Line Stage 6, including Keppel, Cantonment and Prince Edward Road, opened for passenger service on 12 July 2026 and closed the loop between HarbourFront and Marina Bay. Compare the actual route and station entrance from the selected Silat Avenue block; the street guide does not establish a walking time.

Zhangde Primary School confirms its current campus address as 51 Jalan Membina on its official contact page. Treat this as a location to investigate in the wider area when planning school-day travel. A school marker or street-level reference does not establish admission eligibility, registration priority or an official distance category for a particular home.

For a wider-area outing, NParks lists Mount Faber Park as 56 hectares at the junction of Kampong Bahru Road and Telok Blangah Road, forming part of the Southern Ridges. Its hillside setting needs a separate route and access check: NParks states that there is no wheelchair access at the park. Consult current maps and notices rather than assuming a direct or step-free connection from a flat.
