Wandervale received its TOP in 2018. After completing the mandatory 5-year MOP, units in the development became available on the resale market in March 2023. Since then, there have been a total of 88 resale transactions. It is notable that the volume of transactions increased significantly once the units reached their MOP. At the beginning of the resale period, the PSF was $1,315. This has risen to $1,442 PSF at the time of writing, indicating a healthy appreciation in value. This trend reflects a strong demand and positive market reception for Wandervale units in the resale market.

Now, let’s explore the pricing comparisons between Wandervale and other nearby developments. We will compare The Rainforest, which is located right next to Wandervale and consists of 466 units that were completed in 2015. Mi Casa, a development comprising 457 units that reached completion in 2013. Lastly, we will look into Sol Acres, a large-scale development in Choa Chu Kang with 1,327 units, which similarly obtained its TOP in 2018.
As of July 2024, Wandervale and Sol Acres exhibit the highest average PSF at $1,442 and $1,443 respectively. The Rainforest follows closely with a PSF of $1,404, while Mi Casa has the lowest PSF at $1,289. The data shows that despite variations over time, Wandervale and Sol Acres consistently maintain higher PSFs, this can be attributed to the fact that both of these developments are the newest in Choa Chu Kang. Mi Casa, being an older development, reflects a lower PSF, which aligns with its initial lower launch prices.

Wandervale boasts an impressive MOAT score of 70%.
This high score can be attributed to four key factors: the Volume effect, Exit Audience, Quantum effect, and Bala’s Curve effect.
Volume Effect scores a perfect 5 out of 5. Wandervale reached its Minimum Occupation Period in 2023. This milestone is significant because developments that have just obtained MOP typically see a surge in transactions. Many of the original owners, having fulfilled the mandatory occupancy period, often look to upgrade their property portfolio. This trend leads to an increased volume of transactions.
Exit Audience scores a perfect 5 out of 5 as well. This high score is largely due to its location as Choa Chu Kang has a substantial number of HDB residential clusters. Many residents of these HDB flats often seek to upgrade their living arrangements, preferring to stay within the same locality due to familiarity and convenience. Consequently, these HDB owners form a significant pool of potential buyers for Wandervale, as they are likely to consider moving into a condominium within the same area.
Wandervale scores a commendable 4 out of 5 in The Quantum Effect. This high score indicates that Wandervale remains a relatively affordable option. Wandervale’s competitive pricing makes it accessible to a larger demographic, which in turn drives demand and ensures a steady flow of potential buyers.
Finally, the Bala’s Curve effect for Wandervale scores 4 out of 5 as well. This high score reflects its relatively young age of just 6 years. Properties within their initial years tend to hold higher value and show strong appreciation potential, and Wandervale benefits from being in this prime period as a newer development.
However, Wandervale has a relatively low score in Rental Demand, scoring just 1 out of 5. This low score can be attributed to the development only reaching its Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) in 2023. During the MOP, owners are not permitted to rent out their entire units, which significantly limits the number of rental transactions. As a result, the majority of the units in Wandervale are owner-occupied, leading to lower rental activity and demand. This restriction during the MOP period is the primary reason behind the development’s low rental demand score.

The 4-bedroom units at Wandervale are the most spacious options available, boasting an expansive layout of 1,249 square feet. These units are spread across five stacks, making them particularly rare and highly sought after.

Both the living and dining areas are generously sized, providing ample space for entertaining.
Moving into the bedroom area, you’ll find that Bedrooms 2 and 3 are of a similar size, while Bedroom 4 is slightly smaller. The three bedrooms share the common bathroom. The master bedroom is elongated, offering plenty of space, and it includes an en-suite master bathroom.

The Jurong Region Line, set to commence operations in 2027, is a highly anticipated enhancement to Singapore’s extensive public transportation network.

Another forthcoming development is the Jurong Lake District, which is set to become Singapore’s largest business district outside the city centre. This district will seamlessly integrate commercial, residential, and recreational spaces within a vibrant, green environment. Spanning a considerable area, it is projected to create approximately 100,000 new jobs and 20,000 new homes by 2040-2050, nurturing a dynamic community ideal for both living and working.
A notable highlight of the district is the creation of the 90-hectare Jurong Lake Gardens, destined to be Singapore’s new national garden. This expansive green space will merge the Lakeside Garden, Chinese Garden, and Japanese Garden into a lush, cohesive environment.
