Zac’s Take

Zac Ong

Freehold residential title in Georgetown at this price point is genuinely rare. Pykett Avenue puts you 1km from Gleneagles and 3km from Gurney Plaza. Units start from 1,200sqft which is large for the area. Unlike serviced apartments, residential title means no commercial TNB rates and no HDA restrictions.
