Why is Treasure at Tampines so large?

The site is the former Tampines Court, a privatised HUDC estate. Sim Lian Group bought it collectively in August 2017 for S$970 million. EdgeProp put the land rate at S$655 psf per plot ratio in one March 2019 report (15 March) and S$676 psf per plot ratio in another (17 March). The land is about 648,889 sq ft, which let Sim Lian build 2,203 homes (EdgeProp, 15 March 2019).

At launch, EdgeProp reported that Treasure at Tampines would be Singapore's largest private condo by unit count, overtaking d'Leedon's 1,715 units.

How much did Treasure at Tampines sell for at launch?

The first phase opened in March 2019. EdgeProp reported on 24 March 2019 that 272 of the 490 units released had sold, at an average of S$1,280 psf, and that about 7,000 people visited the sales gallery on the opening weekend. The marketing agents were OrangeTee & Tie, ERA and PropNex.

At S$1,280 psf, the smallest 463 sq ft unit works out to about S$593,000 (our arithmetic: 463 × S$1,280), but actual unit prices varied by stack and floor.

Sim Lian now lists the project as fully sold.

Rental yield estimates differ by source. EdgeProp shows an average rent of about S$5.5 psf a month and a yield of 3.6%. Stacked Homes shows a median rent of S$3,300 a month across 485 leases and estimates a gross yield of about 2.5%. Neither figure includes costs such as maintenance fees, property tax or vacancy.

Past resale profits mostly reflect a rising market since 2019 and say nothing about future returns.

How far is Treasure at Tampines from the MRT?

The closest station is Simei on the East-West Line, about 670 m away according to EdgeProp. Stacked Homes estimates the walk at about 1.2 km, or roughly 15 minutes, depending on which block you start from. At launch, EdgeProp described four stations (Tampines, Tampines West, Tampines East and Simei) as 10 to 15 minutes' walk away.

Nearby malls include Eastpoint, Tampines Mall and Century Square (EdgeProp project page).

Which primary schools are near Treasure at Tampines?

Stacked Homes lists four primary schools within 1 km:

  • Changkat Primary School (about 670 m)
  • Chongzheng Primary School (about 690 m)
  • Yumin Primary School (about 730 m)
  • Tampines Primary School (about 820 m)

Distances are measured from the development, and with 29 blocks spread over about 6 ha, the distance from individual blocks may differ. Check each block's address on OneMap before relying on the 1 km priority rule.

What should buyers weigh at Treasure at Tampines?

  • Scale. With 2,203 homes, many similar units are often for sale or rent at the same time, which gives buyers and tenants plenty of choice and gives sellers plenty of competition.
  • Lease. The 99-year lease began on 29 November 2018, so about 91 years remain. See our guide to lease decay for when CPF and loan limits start to bite.
  • Walking distance. The nearest MRT station is several hundred metres away and the walk is longer from blocks at the far end of the site.
  • Facilities. 128 facilities and 13 pools are spread across the site, and maintenance costs are shared across 2,203 units.

This is a summary of trade-offs, not a recommendation to buy or sell.

Correction

2 October 2026: An earlier version of this page gave the address as "51 Tampines Avenue 8", named Sim Lian Group (70%) and Hong Leong Holdings (30%) as developers, and said the lease began in 2017, the blocks were 25 storeys, units ranged from 441 to 1,701 sq ft, the site was 656,383 sq ft and the nearest MRT was Tampines, 850 m away. Treasure at Tampines is at Tampines Lane, was developed by Sim Lian Group, sits on a 99-year lease from 29 November 2018 in 29 twelve-storey blocks, has units of 463 to 1,722 sq ft on a site of about 648,889 sq ft, and its nearest station is Simei. Unsupported claims about a 60 m lap pool, a forest trail, nearby schools, launch prices of S$1,100 to S$1,300 psf, "six years of lease lost" and rental yields of 3.5% to 4.2% were removed, as was an offer of a paid "full report".
