Archipelago Condo: Guide to Prices, Units, Location and Who It Suits
Archipelago is a 577-unit, 99-year leasehold condo on Bedok Reservoir Road, District 16, completed in 2015, near Bedok North MRT. Facts, psf, rents and who it suits.
Archipelago is a low-rise condo on Bedok Reservoir Road, completed in 2015, and one of the larger private developments in the Bedok North area. It pairs a walk to the Downtown Line with Bedok Reservoir Park on the doorstep, which is why the Archipelago condo name comes up often among east-side families and upgraders. Below are the verified facts, recent prices and a fair comparison with a new launch.

Unit sizes
EdgeProp’s unit records show apartment sizes starting from about 527 sq ft, with the strata landed homes at around 4,400 sq ft. In between, the development covers a wide range of apartment sizes, which gives it both a rental market for smaller units and an owner-occupier market for family units. Detailed bedroom counts are not fully listed in the sources we checked, so confirm the layout for any unit you view.
The low-rise format (no more than five storeys for the apartment blocks) and the large site give the estate a spread-out, low-density layout, but they also mean fewer high-floor views than a tower condo. Facilities are not itemised in our sources; check them on a viewing.
Archipelago condo prices and rents
Based on EdgeProp’s summary of URA caveats (accessed September 2026):
- Sales, last 12 months: about S$1,252 to S$1,786 psf, averaging about S$1,571 psf.
- Highest recorded: about S$1,786 psf in February 2026 for an 829 sq ft unit.
- Rents, last 12 months: about S$3.3 to S$5.9 psf per month, averaging about S$4.7 psf per month; EdgeProp puts the indicative gross yield at about 3.6%.
Buyers are about 77% Singaporeans and 20% PRs, according to EdgeProp. As usual, small units set the psf highs, while larger units and the strata landed homes transact at lower psf but higher totals.
Past transactions are not a forecast. Check the latest caveats before you make an offer.
Location and amenities
The standout feature is Bedok Reservoir Park, about 250 m away according to EdgeProp, with its reservoir loop popular for running and cycling. Bedok Town Park is also within about 450 m.
For daily needs, a FairPrice is about 150 m away and Sheng Siong about 300 m. Bedok town centre, with its mall and bus interchange, is a short ride away.
Damai Primary School is within 1 km according to EdgeProp. Opera Estate, St. Hilda’s, Yu Neng, Telok Kurau, Red Swastika and Fengshan primary schools are within 2 km. Confirm the exact bands on OneMap before P1 registration.
Transport
Bedok North station on the Downtown Line is roughly 400 to 450 m away, a walkable distance for most residents. The Downtown Line runs towards Tampines and Expo in one direction and into the city via MacPherson and Bugis in the other. Drivers can reach the PIE and TPE. For what counts as “near the MRT”, see our condo near MRT guide.
Pros and cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Walkable to Bedok North MRT | Low-rise: limited high-floor views |
| Next to Bedok Reservoir Park | Large site: check the walk from your block to the gate |
| Relatively young (2015), about 84 years left on the lease | Higher psf than older Bedok condos |
| Mix of small units and strata landed homes | Mall is a bus ride away, not downstairs |
Who Archipelago suits
Archipelago suits families who want a park and an MRT station within walking distance, active residents who use the reservoir, and buyers who like a low-density estate. Strata landed homes appeal to those who want landed-style space with condo facilities and security. It suits buyers less if they want a mall directly downstairs or high-floor views. For more options in the area, read our upcoming Bedok condos guide.
Resale condo or new launch?
If you like Archipelago’s MRT access but want a new building with a mall on site, a new launch such as LinkTown Residences (Hougang Central Residences) is a fair comparison. It is on the Hougang Central mixed-use site, directly linked to Hougang MRT on the North-East Line, with a future Cross Island Line interchange, a new mall and a bus interchange. For other examples, see our integrated condos list.
| Archipelago | LinkTown Residences | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Completed 2015; resale | New launch; sales expected early 2027 (UOL’s August 2026 results guide a 2H 2027 launch) |
| Lease | 99 years from 2011 | 99 years from 2026 |
| Transport | ~400–450 m to Bedok North (DTL) | Directly linked to Hougang MRT (NE14) |
| Setting | Low-rise, beside a reservoir park | Town centre, above a mall and bus interchange |
| Price | ~S$1,571 psf average (last 12 months) | ~S$2,500–2,600 psf (analyst estimate) |
At those averages, S$1.7 million buys roughly 1,080 sq ft at Archipelago, or about 650 to 680 sq ft at LinkTown’s estimated psf. Archipelago offers more space now and a green setting; LinkTown offers a fresh lease, a new building and integrated amenities, with move-in expected around 2030/2031. Our new launch vs resale guide and the LinkTown Residences overview explain the trade-offs. LinkTown figures are indicative only.
