Bedok Four-Room Flat Reportedly Fetches a Record S$1.28 Million

A 990 sq ft four-room HDB flat at Block 222A Bedok North Drive reportedly sold for S$1.28 million in October 2026. The Model A unit was said to be between the 16th and 18th storeys; if the price enters official records, it would be Bedok’s highest four-room resale transaction.

The eye-catching comparison is in the same block. A 1,001 sq ft flat reportedly fetched S$1.20 million in August, meaning the newer and slightly smaller home cost S$80,000 more. Based on the reported figures, that is about S$1,293 per sq ft, versus roughly S$1,199 per sq ft for the earlier deal.

A smaller flat, but only just

The difference in floor area sounds more dramatic than it is. Eleven square feet is roughly one square metre, so these are better understood as two similarly sized four-room flats rather than one buyer paying substantially more for much less space.

What remains unknown is potentially more important. The available information does not establish the precise floor, view, facing, interior condition or renovation standard of either home. It also does not reveal whether several buyers competed for the newer unit.

Those details can produce meaningful differences even within one block. A better view, a quieter position or an interior that needs less work could matter to a buyer, while the timing and urgency of each party can also affect the final price. None of those possible explanations has been publicly established here.

The clearest conclusion is therefore a narrow one: the reported buyer paid a sizeable premium over a very recent transaction for a nearly identical amount of floor space.

Why S$80,000 and S$90,000 are both being mentioned

The S$80,000 gap compares the reported S$1.28 million transaction with the S$1.20 million sale in the same block two months earlier. That is the most direct comparison because both flats were at Block 222A and had almost the same floor area.

A different comparison looks beyond the block. The highest earlier Bedok four-room figure in the reported historical table was S$1.19 million. Against that benchmark, S$1.28 million is S$90,000 higher.

The two numbers are not contradictory. They simply use different starting points:

• S$80,000 above the preceding S$1.20 million sale at Block 222A
• S$90,000 above the S$1.19 million figure in the wider Bedok comparison

For homeowners following prices in their own block, the first comparison will usually feel more relevant. Even then, it should not be treated as an automatic valuation for every four-room flat nearby. Floor level, condition and outlook still affect how useful one transaction is as a comparison.

Why the record remains provisional

HDB’s official resale dataset groups transactions by their registration date. This matters because an agreed sale may be reported before it appears in the public record.

The dataset also describes its prices as indicative and says that certain transactions which may not reflect full market value are excluded. In other words, the official series follows a defined methodology rather than collecting every price mentioned publicly.

At the time covered by the available evidence, the dataset ran only through April 2026. The government’s housing-data catalogue points users to that same resale-price dataset, so it could not yet independently confirm a transaction reported for October 2026.

The underlying transaction claim comes from editorial reporting rather than an HDB filing; the originating outlet is catalogued as a media publication. Until the government dataset catches up, the careful description is a reported S$1.28 million sale and prospective Bedok record, not an officially confirmed record.

What would settle the question

The next useful development is straightforward: the appearance, or non-appearance, of the transaction in HDB’s registered resale data after the relevant update.

If a four-room flat at Block 222A is recorded at S$1.28 million, the record claim will have a common official basis for comparison. If the registered details differ, the account will need to be revised accordingly.

For now, the most interesting part of the reported deal is not simply that another HDB flat crossed seven figures. It is that a nearly same-sized home in the same block reportedly moved from a S$1.20 million benchmark to S$1.28 million within two months. That is an unusually sharp step up—but one still waiting to appear in the official record.
