Tampines Property Guide: 432 Listings Near Two MRT Lines
Updated 2026-09-22
Tampines is one of Singapore's largest and most self-contained housing estates, served by both the East West Line and Downtown Line. With 432 live listings averaging S$1,117,590 and a mature spread of HDB, condo and executive condo stock, it remains a dependable choice for owner-occupiers and upgraders alike.
What is it like living near Tampines MRT?
Tampines MRT sits at the interchange of the East West Line (EW2) and Downtown Line (DT32), giving residents direct trains to Raffles Place, Marina Bay, Bugis and Changi Airport without a transfer. A ride to the CBD takes roughly 35 minutes on the Downtown Line, which also connects to Botanic Gardens and Bukit Panjang.
Day to day, the station is flanked by three malls: Tampines Mall, Tampines 1 and Century Square, all within a few minutes on foot. Our Tampines Hub, a large community complex on Tampines Central, adds a hawker centre, public library, swimming complex, gymnasium and a rooftop football pitch. Grocery runs, dining and weekend errands can all be handled without leaving the neighbourhood.
Transport: two lines now, a third by 2030
The East West Line runs east to Changi Airport and west through the CBD to Jurong. The Downtown Line cuts diagonally through the city centre to Bukit Panjang. Together, they give Tampines residents two independent routes into town, which is a practical hedge against service disruptions on either line.
The Cross Island Line (CRL) Phase 1 is expected to open by 2030, with Tampines North station serving the northern half of the estate. When complete, it will link Tampines to Hougang, Serangoon North, Ang Mo Kio and Bright Hill, cutting travel times to the centre and north of the island. Parktown Residence, a 1,193-unit integrated development by UOL, CapitaLand and SingLand, will sit directly above the new Tampines North station alongside a bus interchange, community club and hawker centre.
Housing stock and prices at S$893 per square foot
Of the 432 listings currently on Hombble, 356 are HDB resale flats, 37 are condominiums, 36 are executive condominiums and 3 are landed properties. The average asking price is S$1,117,590 for an average size of 1,203 sqft, which works out to S$893 per square foot.
HDB resale prices in Tampines as of mid 2026 range from roughly S$380,000 to S$430,000 for three-room flats, S$520,000 to S$620,000 for four-room flats, and S$660,000 to S$780,000 for five-room flats. Executive flats sit between S$820,000 and S$950,000. Year on year, four-room median prices have softened by about 0.9 per cent to S$662,000, while two-room flats have risen 8.6 per cent. The BTO pipeline continues: Tampines Nova, a 255-unit Plus project offering two-room Flexi and four-room flats, launched in February 2026 with prices starting from S$197,000.
Schools and families
Tampines has a dense cluster of primary and secondary schools within walking distance of the MRT station. Within one kilometre, families can reach Tampines Primary School, Junyuan Primary School, St. Hilda's Primary School, and St. Anthony's Canossian Primary School. Secondary options nearby include Tampines Secondary School, St. Hilda's Secondary School and St. Anthony's Canossian Secondary School.
Temasek Polytechnic sits a short bus ride away at Tampines West, giving older students a local option for diploma courses. For families with younger children, the concentration of primary schools within the one-kilometre priority enrolment band is a genuine draw, particularly around the blocks along Tampines Street 86 and Tampines Avenue 8.
Where are blocks like 113 Tampines Street 86 and 146 Tampines?
Several of the most-searched addresses in Tampines sit within established HDB precincts close to the MRT station. Blocks along Tampines Street 86, including 113, 107 and 21, are part of a mature estate between Tampines Central and Tampines Avenue 5, within comfortable walking distance of the station and Tampines Mall.
Addresses on Tampines Avenue 8, such as blocks 11, 17 and 893A, are located slightly further north, closer to Tampines Round Market and the upcoming Tampines North MRT station on the Cross Island Line. Blocks along Tampines Central 7, including 11, 13 and 19, sit near Our Tampines Hub and benefit from direct access to its community and retail facilities. All of these precincts fall within the broader Tampines planning area and share the same transport, school and amenity catchment.
Outlook for Tampines property
Tampines is designated as one of Singapore's four regional centres under the URA Master Plan, alongside Jurong East, Woodlands and Seletar. That status means continued investment in commercial space, transport links and public amenities over the next decade.
The arrival of the Cross Island Line by 2030, the completion of Parktown Residence and the ongoing densification of Tampines North are the three developments most likely to affect values in the medium term. For buyers, the current average of S$893 per square foot reflects a mature estate where pricing is driven by convenience and school proximity rather than speculative demand. For sellers, the 432 active listings on Hombble suggest a liquid market with steady turnover.
