This is a rare opportunity to acquire a 73-capacity premium childcare centre housed in a landed semi-detached property in Central Singapore. Landed-format preschools in this catchment seldom come to market.
The centre is fully fitted, fully licensed, and operational with an existing team in place. It has previously operated at near-full enrolment for several years and currently sits at reduced enrolment following a brand transition and a structural K2 graduation cohort. The asset, the premises, the licence, the fee tier, and the catchment, all remain intact for the next operator to rebuild.
The owner is consolidating their education portfolio.

- ๐ฐ Revenue: Approx. S$300k+ annual run-rate at current enrolment, with significant operating leverage as enrolment rebuilds toward licensed capacity
- ๐ Projected Profit at Recovery: Approx. S$200k+ per year at just 35 students, based on a right-sized cost base
- ๐ซ Licensed Capacity: 73 children (childcare only, no infant care)
- ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Current Enrolment: Approx. 15 students (centre operated at high-60s historically)
- ๐ต Fees: $2k+ for full-day childcare
- ๐ Location: Located in Central Singapore, serving a local working-parent catchment in a quiet residential neighbourhood
- ๐ข Premise Size: Two-storey landed semi-detached property, fully fitted with 5 rooms, atelier, and outdoor play access (public playground walking distance, no road crossing)
- ๐ต Monthly Rental: Approx. S$10k per month including GST, with a 2-year renewal option available with the existing landlord
- ๐ฉโ๐ซ Team: Principal, teachers, admin, kitchen and support team in place (currently over-staffed for current enrolment, room for right-sizing on takeover)
- ๐ง Owner Role: Suitable for an owner-operator or experienced operator who can rebuild enrolment and right-size the cost base
- ๐ฝ๏ธ Differentiation: Landed semi-detached premise (rare format in central Singapore), premium fee tier, established catchment, large public playground walking distance from the centre
- ๐ Upside: Enrolment recovery toward licensed capacity, staff right-sizing, marketing engagement, brand re-positioning, potential bolt-on integration into a larger operator platform

This is not a bare-space takeover. The buyer acquires an operational centre with existing students, staff, ECDA licence, fully fitted premises, and an established catchment, all in a landed format that does not come back to market often in central Singapore.
For an existing education operator, this works as a bolt-on acquisition in a premium central catchment. Operational synergies are available if the buyer already has centralised HQ, finance, curriculum, marketing, HR or procurement functions. A 73-cap addition reaches break-even at approximately 25 students with a right-sized team and generates meaningful contribution as enrolment builds.
For a hands-on owner-operator, the value lies in taking over a fully operational centre at a fraction of greenfield cost. A new ECDA licence typically takes 12 to 18 months to obtain and a fresh fit-out for a comparable premise costs S$150k or more. The recovery path is quantifiable: break-even at approximately 25 students, scaling rapidly thereafter.
