Why the cheap end of that list is cheap
Before reading the ranking as a map of which blocks are better value, note what else differs along it. The five cheapest blocks for a 4-room here have a median of 55 years of lease left; the five dearest have 84 years. That is the larger part of the gap, and it is not a discount — it is a shorter thing being sold.
4-room flats across Singapore, by town
The same flat type in every town that cleared 20 sales, dearest per square foot first. This is the comparison that holds: a town-against-town ranking of all sales pooled would partly be ranking each town’s flat-type mix, since 4-room flats were 43 per cent of what sold in Central Area.

Other flat types in Central Area
Per square foot is the only column that compares across these, and even it reads low for the big flats: a larger flat costs more and less per square foot at the same time.
| Flat type | Median price | Per sq ft | Median size | Sales | Share of town |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3-room | $558,000 | $776 psf | 700 sq ft | 73 | 38% |

Questions
- How much does a 4-room resale flat in Central Area cost?
- The median was $925,000 over the 12 months to Oct 2026, across 82 sales in 28 blocks. Half of those sales fell between $770,888 and $1,350,000, and the full range ran from $565,000 to $1,588,000.
- What is the price per square foot of a 4-room flat in Central Area?
- $928 psf, on a median floor area of 1,012 sq ft. Per square foot is the measure that compares across flat types, and the headline price is not: a larger flat costs more in total and less per square foot at the same time.
- How many 4-room flats sold in Central Area in the past year?
- 82 sales in the 12 months to Oct 2026, across 28 blocks, and 767 since 2017. 4-room flats were 43 per cent of everything that resold in Central Area over those 12 months.
- Which block in Central Area has the cheapest 4-room flats?
- On a per-square-foot median, Blk 8 Jalan Kukoh at $598 psf from one sale, against $1,429 psf at Blk 1C Cantonment Road. Most of that gap is lease rather than discount: the five cheapest blocks have a median of 55 years left and the five dearest 84 years. That cheapest figure rests on a single sale, which is an anecdote rather than a rate.
- Is Central Area expensive for a 4-room flat?
- Central Area is the fourth dearest of 25 towns for a 4-room flat, per square foot. The dearest is Queenstown at $1,064 psf and the cheapest Choa Chu Kang at $507 psf. The comparison holds the flat type still, because a ranking of towns on all sales pooled would partly be ranking their flat-type mix.
- How much lease is left on 4-room flats in Central Area?
- Between 44 years and 84 years on the flats that sold, with a median of 76 years. An HDB flat is a 99-year lease, so the remaining lease is most of what separates a cheap block here from a dear one.
How this was worked out
Every figure on this page comes from the Housing Board’s resale transaction register on data.gov.sg, retrieved Oct 2026 — 767 sales of 4-room flats in Central Area since 2017, of which 82 sales fell in the 12 months to Oct 2026. These are completed transactions, not listings or asking prices. Medians are medians and never means, a flat type is published for a town only once it clears 20 sales in the year, and no price here is adjusted for inflation.
