North Gaia EC
North Gaia EC is an upcoming large, executive condominium with 616 units, ranging from three-bedroom units to five-bedroom units. North Gaia is located at the peaceful and idyllic North-Eastern part of Yishun, at Yishun Avenue 9 and is primed to become a great hit in the area due to its serene setting, proximity to nearby amenities and good entry price. What distinguishes North Gaia from other executive condominiums in the area is the incredible picturesque landscape of the Khatib Bongsu Nature Park, and the easy access to well-connected roads and expressways, exactly what is needed for a comfortable and enjoyable lifestyle.
North Gaia offers good size and functional condominium living with comfortable and homey interior. As an executive condominium, units are priced at a value as compared to similar developments. Additional features and facilities here include a large outdoor swimming pool, a clubhouse and tennis court.
A pent up demand is expected during the launch due to the shortage of EC launches for more than 5 years in the area. It’s expected that all 616 units will be released during the initial launch, made available to purchase on a first-come, first-served basis.
North Gaia EC offers the best of many worlds; it is surrounded by nature, and at the same time retains proximity to various amenities such as schools and hospitals, as well as the serene environment which makes residents feel as though they’re in a resort-like environment every day.
Here are 6 Reasons Why You Should Consider North Gaia
1. Convenience
For Northern Singapore lovers, you will be excited to know that various kinds of amenities are conveniently available to you. 2 bus stops away is the 500,000 sqft large Northpoint City housing over 400 retail and F&B tenants, providing you a quality shopping experience. You can view the latest directory of store here. Roughly the same distance away is Canberra Plaza, a new shopping mall with many more choices for dining and shopping. Within walking distance, you also have Junction Nine, that houses a Sheng Shiong, as well as smaller shops that sell all kinds of interesting goods and homewares. If you prefer value, nothing can beat the nearby Chong Pang City where you’ll be able to find a large wet market and a hawker centre.
2. Connectivity
Located a quick 2 bus stops away is Yishun MRT. With the expansion of our transport networks in Singapore the last few years, Yishun is now very well connected to many other areas of Singapore. You are only 4 stops away from the Woodlands Regional Hub, 3 stops to Ang Mo Kio where you can change over to the future Cross Island Line, 4 stops away from Bishan which connects you to the Circle Line seamlessly, and only 9 stops away from Orchard.
Living in the North-Eastern side of Yishun also has its advantages. With the opening of the Yishun Avenue 8 road, residents here are able to skip the congestion at Yishun Central areas and the long route via Lentor Ave just to pass through to the expressways. You also can get immediate connection to not just 1, but 3 major expressways, CTE, SLE and TPE via the new Yishun Avenue 8. With the North-South Corridor slated to complete in 2026, peak hours congestion in CTE can be expected to be heavily reduced as well.
3. Ideal for Families
Families looking for a place to call home will find the North Gaia is an ideal choice due to the similar residential profile, being mostly families too. Kids are able to meet new friends and play, while adults get a sense of community with like-minded people. North Gaia will be a surely be a conducive environment for you if you are looking to find a home as a family.
4. EC Prices
ECs are highly sought after because of their pricing during the launch. A more premium price tag can be expected for a similar condominium when compared to an executive condominium. This is due to ECs being a special class of property that is meant for Singaporean families. With many eligibility criterias in place and a limited pool of buyers, ECs are priced at a discount to cater to locals who are looking for an upgrade. Furthermore, after 5 years, an EC will fall under the private residential status and can be sold in the private market to other buyers (10 years if buyer is a foreigner).
5. Reputable Developer
Sing Holdings is no stranger to building large scale residential developments. They have recently been very successful with their Parc Botannia project with a total of 735 units. They have a strong track record and their residential portfolio includes Robin Residences, Waterwoods, The Laurels, Bellerive, Meyer Residence, 38 Draycott Drive and East View. They have also developed commercial projects in China and Australia.
Buying a home by a reputable, financially-healthy and quality-focused developer gives you full confidence and a peace of mind.
6. Serene Environment
North Gaia is tucked away in a quiet and idyllic side of Yishun, away from the hectic and bustling Yishun Central area. Many families will want their home to be a place to unwind, especially after a long day at school or work. Also, with the new road, Yishun Avenue 8, you no longer have to pass through the the busy Yishun Avenue 2 just to head home if you are coming from any of the 3 expressways.
North-East facing units will also enjoy scenic views of the Khatib Bongsu Nature Park, and may even get a good view of the Straits of Johor. North Gaia will be the ideal location for you if you are looking for a less hectic and more relaxing environment.

Living in an EC
The building design, facilities, and layout of an EC are very similar to any other private condominiums.
HDB oversees the initial launch sales process. All buyers are carefully checked to make sure they are qualified to buy an EC.
For most families, the purchase of an EC is for the long term and for themselves to stay in. Being in an exclusive and ideal environment for lifestyle-based living is one of the biggest reasons why many choose to live in one.
Â
Is North Gaia Worth Buying?
Now you may be wondering if an EC such as North Gaia could be worth buying as a home for your family or as an investment.
Typically, an EC is usually bought as a family home. EC buyers benefit greatly due to the fact that it’s an amazing opportunity to step into the private residential market. Many people are not able to qualify to buy an EC due to requirements such as income, citizenship status, existing property ownership and more reasons.
Let’s first see why North Gaia may not be suitable for you.
Investors expecting immediate gains or rental income will find EC an unsuitable purchase for them. EC owners are subjected to the 5-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP), which makes it almost impossible to flip or rent out the entire unit before that time period.
However, if your objective is to purchase a family home for now, while having the potential to sit on capital appreciation that correlates to the private residential market, then here are some reasons why you should consider North Gaia.
Here are some reasons why North Gaia is worth buying.
An EC itself is a value buy due to the fact that the pricing can be at a 20 to 25 percent discount when compared to similar condominiums. It is known that ECs have always been very popular among the sandwiched class ever since its inception in the 90s. Certain eligibility requirements have to be met in order to buy a brand new executive condominium, making it difficult for investors to enter this segment and time of the market, preventing unnecessary price speculations. Furthermore, ECs can eventually be resold in the private market after 5 (to locals) or 10 (to foreigners) years, giving a great advantage to the initial EC owners due to their favorable entry price.
As we start comparing to other developments in the area, it is evident that North Gaia is also sitting on the northernmost plot between them and Symphony Suites, which means that the scenic views of the Khatib Bongsu Nature Park is not obscured by Symphony Suites, but rather the other way around.
Also, at this part of Yishun, the current private residential supply is fairly limited at less than 1,000 units combined at this point of time, spread between Symphony Suites and Junction Nine Residences. North Gaia will also be the newest residential development in this area of Yishun once it obtains its TOP, making it around 6 years younger than its neighbouring Symphony Suites, giving it a slight competitive edge when an owner plans to sell the property.
So if you are qualified to be an EC owner, be sure not to miss out this chance to explore an opportunity like this.
