About Sembawang

Sembawang sits at Singapore’s northern tip facing the Johor Strait, bordered by Woodlands and Yishun. Weekends here feel breezy—think Sembawang Park’s jetty, coastal walks and the unique Sembawang Hot Spring Park. Daily life revolves around Sun Plaza, Canberra Plaza and Sembawang Shopping Centre for groceries, clinics and dining. Bukit Canberra adds an ActiveSG gym, swimming complex, hawker centre and a polyclinic. Connectivity is straightforward via Sembawang (NS11) and Canberra (NS12) on the North–South Line, plus a bus interchange and quick hops to SLE. Housing skews HDB with several ECs and newer condos in Canberra—typically better value than city-fringe options.

FAQs

Agree on clear house rules with your flatmates early. Clarify quiet hours, overnight guests, cooking frequency, kitchen use, fridge space, and laundry timing. Discuss cleaning expectations for kitchen and bathrooms. Check rules about smoking or pets. Setting these expectations from the start helps prevent conflicts and keeps everyone comfortable.

While landlords pay maintenance fees directly, these costs often influence rental prices. Understand what facilities and services these fees cover, as higher fees might mean better maintenance and amenities. Ask about any special assessments or major repair works that might affect the building during your tenancy.

Landed houses may require additional insurance considerations due to ground-level access, gardens, and potential flooding risks. Check if your landlord's insurance covers tenant belongings and liability for accidents on the property. Consider additional coverage for valuable items and personal liability, especially if you have guests using outdoor areas or pools.

Consider your family's growth plans and changing needs over the lease period. Evaluate room sizes for current and future occupants, proximity to schools and family-friendly amenities, and whether the layout supports aging in place. Factor in the total cost of ownership including utilities, maintenance, and potential rent increases. Choose a location that balances space needs with commute convenience and community resources.

In a landed house, residents handle all the cleaning. Large spaces (living rooms, kitchen, stairs) mean more work, so housemates should set a chore routine or hire a cleaner together. Agreeing on who cleans what (and when) keeps the big home comfortable for everyone.

Teenagers require more privacy and independence than younger children. Consider bedroom assignments that provide adequate separation from parents and siblings, ensure good soundproofing for music and phone calls, and discuss household rules about friends visiting. Plan for increased utility usage and potential need for additional internet bandwidth or separate study spaces.

Ventilation and sunlight can make a small room feel more comfortable and livable. Natural light makes the space feel more open and pleasant, and it can even improve your mood. See if it has a window that opens to outdoors (and not just into a corridor or airwell). Good ventilation and light are key for your daily comfort in that space.

At move-in, note any existing damage (take photos) and inform the landlord immediately so you’re not held liable. At move-out, return the home in the same condition: clean thoroughly, fix any minor damage you caused, and ensure all items are returned. This way you should get your deposit back.
