Ubi Property Guide: 82 Listings Near DT27 from S$555K to S$1M
Updated 2026-10-10
Ubi sits on the Downtown Line in Singapore's Geylang planning area, serving the established Kampong Ubi HDB estate and a growing number of private condominiums. With 82 live listings averaging S$986,021 and strong connectivity to the CBD, Ubi offers a practical entry point for buyers looking at District 14.
What is it like living near Ubi MRT?
Ubi is a quiet, settled neighbourhood built around the Kampong Ubi HDB estate, which was largely completed in the mid-1980s. Daily life centres on the cluster of HDB blocks along Ubi Avenue 1, the eating houses in the nearby Kampong Ubi Industrial Estate, and the low-rise shophouses and coffeeshops that line the surrounding streets.
The area is not a retail destination. There is no major mall within walking distance, but Eunos MRT on the East-West Line is roughly 760 metres away, and Paya Lebar Quarter, with its shops and restaurants, is two Downtown Line stops to the west. For groceries and everyday needs, residents rely on the provision shops and minimarts dotted through the estate, along with the hawker stalls at the industrial blocks on Ubi Avenue 3.
The trade-off is price. Because Ubi lacks the polish of newer estates, property here costs less per square foot than neighbouring Paya Lebar or Kaki Bukit. The 82 listings currently on Hombble average S$1,002 per square foot, with an average asking price of S$986,021 across a mix of 48 HDB flats, 32 condominiums, and 2 landed properties.
What are the HDB blocks at 320 and 330 Ubi Avenue 1?
320 Ubi Avenue 1 is a 12-storey HDB block completed in 1984 on a 99-year lease from 1985. It contains 115 units, all four-room flats. Recent transactions between March 2025 and February 2026 show three units sold at prices ranging from S$555,000 to S$565,000, which works out to roughly S$573 to S$625 per square foot.
330 Ubi Avenue 1, completed in 1985, is a 10-storey block with 94 units split between 62 four-room and 32 five-room flats. Sale prices over the past year have ranged from S$568,888 to S$635,000. Both blocks sit within easy walking distance of Ubi MRT.
These two blocks are among the most searched addresses in the estate. Other frequently searched blocks, including 314, 334, and 344 Ubi Avenue 1, share the same 1985 lease commencement and similar flat configurations. All are four-room blocks of around 120 units each. Buyers should note the remaining lease stands at roughly 58 years, which affects both CPF usage limits and loan tenure for older buyers.
Transport: Downtown Line and the Eunos connection
Ubi MRT station (DT27) opened in October 2017 as part of Downtown Line Stage 3. The line runs from Bukit Panjang to Expo, giving Ubi residents a direct, no-transfer ride to Bugis in about 15 minutes and to the Marina Bay financial district in roughly 20 minutes.
Eunos MRT (EW7) on the East-West Line is about 760 metres from the Ubi Avenue 1 blocks, a 10-minute walk. This gives residents practical access to two MRT lines without needing a bus transfer. For drivers, the Pan Island Expressway is accessible via Eunos Link, connecting to Changi Airport in around 15 minutes outside peak hours.
Schools near Ubi
Families considering the area have several school options within a short radius. Maha Bodhi School, a government-aided primary school, is the closest primary school to the estate. Eunos Primary School, Telok Kurau Primary School, and Canossa Catholic Primary School are also nearby and fall within the broader one- to two-kilometre registration priority bands.
For secondary education, Manjusri Secondary School sits at 20 Ubi Avenue 1, directly within the estate and about 720 metres from the MRT station. Bedok North Secondary School and Macpherson Secondary School are both within 1.5 kilometres.
Prices and housing stock in context
The property mix near Ubi skews heavily towards HDB resale flats, which make up 48 of the 82 current listings. These are predominantly three- to five-room flats from the 1984 to 1986 build cycle, with recent HDB transactions along Ubi Avenue 1 ranging from around S$465,000 for a three-room flat to S$720,000 for a five-room unit.
The 32 condominium listings pull the overall average up to S$986,021. The average unit size across all property types is 1,053 square feet. At S$1,002 per square foot on average, Ubi sits below comparable figures in Paya Lebar and Dakota but above older estates further east along the Downtown Line such as Kaki Bukit.
For HDB buyers specifically, the value proposition is straightforward: established estate, MRT on the doorstep, and prices that remain accessible by central-region standards. The main consideration is the ageing lease. Blocks built in 1984 and 1985 have about 58 years remaining, which is still workable for most buyer profiles but requires careful CPF and loan planning for purchasers over 40.
Outlook for the Ubi area
Ubi benefits from its position on the Downtown Line, which continues to mature as a transit corridor. The line's full completion has made stations like Ubi more attractive to buyers who previously overlooked the area in favour of East-West Line addresses.
The Kampong Ubi Industrial Estate, managed by JTC and Mapletree, sits adjacent to the residential blocks and provides a stable employment base. There are no announced major redevelopment plans for the residential estate itself, which means buyers can expect the neighbourhood character to remain largely unchanged in the medium term. For those looking at the area as a long-term hold, the combination of Downtown Line access, relatively low entry prices, and proximity to the Paya Lebar commercial hub makes a practical case.
