As one of Singapore’s relatively new residential towns, Sengkang is an increasingly vibrant new town in the northeast of the island. Originally a fishing village along Sungei Serangoon, the area used to be home to rubber and pepper plantations and fishing villages but in recent decades, it underwent rapid development to transform it into a modern housing district.
New commercial projects will likely change localised residential profile.
HOMEBUYERS eyeing the north- east have the upcoming launch of a Kovan condo to look forward to.
Consultants said buying interest in the estate has largely been from upgraders living in nearby mature Housing Board estates like Serangoon or Hougang.
