Why Executive Maisonettes Are So Rare and So Loved
Executive Maisonettes are part of Singapore’s housing legacy. Built in the 1980s and early 1990s, they were designed for larger families and are the only public housing flats with two stories. Production of EMs ceased in 1995, and today they account for only about 5.4% of all HDB flats in Singapore roughly 60,000 units in total.
But what makes this home truly special is its location in Bishan, where less than 1% of all EMs in the country can be found. That’s fewer than 600 units. And among those, only a handful offer a layout like this one with 1,755 square feet and a sky terrace. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this is one of the rarest HDB homes on the island.
A Smart Investment for the Future
Homes like this don’t come on the market often. With EMs no longer being built, their scarcity continues to drive demand among buyers who want more than the standard flat. Their larger layouts and landed-home feel make them ideal for families looking to settle down, or for buyers who see value in acquiring a unique piece of public housing history.
And in Bishan a town with proven long-term value, excellent infrastructure, and enduring appeal this home isn’t just a place to live. It’s a smart, forward-thinking investment.
