According to Knight Frank’s Ker, the property is suitable for redevelopment, with the site zoned for two-storey mixed landed housing under the 2019 URA Master Plan. The house that currently sits on the site is a two-storey property that was completed in the 1980s. It has six bedrooms and two bathrooms, with a total floor area of 2,800 sq ft. The porch can fit up to three cars.

The property is located within a landed residential estate comprising a mix of two-storey detached, semi-detached and terraced houses. The estate is bounded by MacPherson Road to the north and Aljunied Road to the west, in District 13.

The Paya Lebar shopping and business district is a 10-minute drive away, offering a host of amenities, eateries and other facilities. Meanwhile, the property also has easy road access to the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway (KPE) and the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE).
