SINGAPORE (EDGEPROP) - The top gain during the week of Dec 22 to 29 was from the sale of a four-bedroom unit on the fourth floor at Gallop Gables, which reaped a profit of $3.02 million for its seller. The 2,960 sq ft unit was purchased in August 2005 for $2.2 million ($764 psf) and was sold on Dec 29 last year for $5.2 million ($1,757 psf). The seller therefore gained a 139% profit, annualised at 5.8% over 15½ years.
Gallop Gables is a freehold condominium that was developed by Straits Developments and completed in 1997. Located on Farrer Road, the low-density development comprises 102 units in four-storey blocks. It is an eight-minute walk to Farrer Road MRT Station on the Circle Line.
The second top gain of the week was achieved by the seller of a 2,056 sq ft, four-bedroom unit at Villa Chancery. The ground-floor unit changed hands on Dec 28 for $4.1 million ($1,994 psf), almost 14 years after it was previously bought in April 2007 for $2.2 million ($1,070 psf). The seller therefore gained an 86% profit of $1.9 million, which is an annualised 4.6%.
