Bukit Batok is a mature town that many families like because it is practical, convenient, and close to nature.
One of the things residents appreciate here is the greenery.
Just across from Blk 512 Bukit Batok Street 52 is Bukit Batok Town Park, also known as Little Guilin, one of the most scenic parks in the west. It is a quiet spot for morning walks, evening strolls, or simply enjoying the view of the granite rock cliffs and lake.
Homes around this area feel more relaxed compared to the busier parts of Singapore, yet daily amenities, food options, and transport are all within easy reach.
Executive Maisonettes are also becoming increasingly rare. These two storey flats offer a lot more space than typical HDB units today, with separate living and bedroom levels that give families more privacy and flexibility.
This Executive Maisonette at Blk 512 Bukit Batok Street 52 is a good option for buyers who appreciate space and want a home they can renovate to their own style.
Let’s take a closer look at this spacious Executive Maisonette located right opposite Little Guilin.
About This Bukit Batok Executive Maisonette
Step into this Executive Maisonette and the first thing you will notice is the space. With a generous 146 sqm layout, this home offers the kind of room that is increasingly rare in today’s HDB flats.
The living area opens out to a balcony that enjoys a pleasant view of Little Guilin at Bukit Batok Town Park. It is a nice touch of greenery and open space right across from the block, something many homeowners appreciate after a long day.
Executive Maisonettes are popular because the two-storey layout naturally separates the living and sleeping areas, giving families both space and privacy.
On the lower level, you have a clear living zone. The living and dining areas are well sized and connected to the balcony, which is great for daily living or hosting. The kitchen is tucked to the side with a separate utility area, so everything stays practical and organised. There is also a common bathroom on this level, which is convenient for guests.
Head upstairs and you get the private zone. All three bedrooms are on the upper floor, including a good-sized master bedroom with its own attached bathroom. The layout here is regular and efficient, so it is easy to furnish without awkward corners.
Another nice feature is the void space above part of the staircase, which gives a bit more openness and airflow between the levels.
Overall, the layout is very functional. You get a proper separation between where you entertain and where you rest, which is something many newer flats no longer offer.

Surrounding Area Review – Transport Accessibility, Schools, Amenities

What I Like Most About This Unit
What stands out to me about this unit is the combination of space and view, which is not something you come across often in today’s HDB market.
From the balcony, you get a direct view of Little Guilin, instead of facing another block. Being on a higher floor, the view feels more open, and the unit gets better ventilation and natural light. It gives the home a more relaxed and less enclosed feel.
At the same time, the 146 sqm layout makes a big difference. The space is very noticeable when you walk through the unit, and the two-storey layout adds to that sense of separation and privacy. It is a type of space that is hard to find in newer flats today.
Another thing I appreciate is the level of privacy. There are not many immediate neighbours facing into the unit, so you do not feel overlooked.
On top of that, the location itself supports this lifestyle. With Little Guilin right across and other nearby nature parks, you are surrounded by greenery, which adds to the overall living experience.
Overall, it is a home that offers space, privacy, and a unique greenery view, which is why it stands out to me.
Recent Transacted Price of Executive Maisonettes (EM) in Bukit Batok Estate
Looking at the most recent transactions along Bukit Batok St 52, Executive Maisonettes have transacted between $790,000 and $970,000 over the past few months.
However, the unit that was transacted at $970,000 is a corner unit with a bigger floor area of 152sqm. If we were to compare to the 146 sqm maisonette units, the prices range between $790,000 to $875,000.
Based on this, the current unit is not just priced within the market range, but is positioned as one of the better value options within the block, considering its attributes.
Not all units are equal. Factors such as floor level, view, and condition play a big part in pricing. Units that are higher floor, renovated, or enjoy an unblocked greenery view typically command a premium.
In this case, the unit stands out with its high floor, renovated condition, and direct Little Guilin view from the balcony. These are features that are not easily replicated.
Conclusion
This Executive Maisonette at Blk 512 Bukit Batok represents a rare opportunity to own a spacious, 146 sqm home with the unique advantage of overlooking Little Guilin.
The two-storey layout offers genuine privacy and room that modern HDB flats cannot match, while the mature Bukit Batok location delivers an ideal balance of convenience with access to nature parks and greenery.
