A Rare Opportunity in Singapore's Childcare Market
Large landed childcare centers like this are incredibly rare in Singapore. Due to recent regulations, it is extremely tough to get ECDA license for new landed premises, making this an exceptional opportunity for any buyer. With the growing scarcity of such properties, especially one with an expansive land size of 602 sqm and two fully equipped playgrounds, this center offers unmatched potential for long-term success in a high-demand sector. The scarcity of landed childcares adds significant value to the property, as these spaces provide unique benefits such as outdoor areas for play, gardening, and nature-based learning—features that are increasingly difficult to find in new centers.
