And in this case, the IDs deserved to be paid such amount or more as they've delivered such sterling expertise of their services.

Tastefully furnished flat indeed! I really like the layout of this flat, with the bedroom, hall and kitchen all next to each other, and each with large windows - makes the entire space feel more seamless and bright. Noticed that the bedroom has an additional small window and there is so much space between the bed and the huge 4-door wardrobe - is it because the bedroom can be configured as a bedroom + study/helper's room?
@DonGurugay

Thanks for your comments. Yes this model had an extra small window and the area for the bedroom is slightly larger than earlier versions. It has a larger 48 sq mtr area but a slightly narrower hall. That's an interesting point about it being a possible study/helper's room. Could well be possible.

When I’m at HDB showroom, a lot of people commented that the 37sq living roo. is actually more spacious than the 47sq.....What do you think?

Hi, Oliver used My Design Interiors Pte Ltd for the ID. I think you have to be careful when making comparisons between the 37 and 47 sq mtr. A visual look can be tricky. It's best to compare actual dimensions that HDB would provide to you if you are successful in being selected. Once an apartment is furnished the furniture, fittings chosen can make an apartment look small or big.

Yes, HDB reduced the living room width to carve out a "spare bedroom", thus the narrow living room for the new layout for 2 room Type 2. I find this new layout awkard, to say the least. For the smaller Type 1, do not be fooled by the showroom in HDB, which is quite an optimal layout. Look at the HDB BTO brochures and you will realise that the internal passage way (area bounded by main door and bomb shelter) can often occupy a disproportionately amount of area. So study the layout very carefully.

That’s a bit difficult to guess but you can take a figure of about $20K for average in the Old Airport area.

Good question. There is a shallow "cupboard" usually near the front door which contains your circuit breaker. There is space there for the router and as well as a broom or small ladder. 😊

Nowadays you can choose 48sqm with two bedrooms, with the smaller one having a single small window. I suspect the owner knocked down the partition between 2 bedrroms and thus you have extra small window? I could be wrong on this unit which alreadys has extra windows in the original single bedroom. Opening up the kitchen is the best way to expand the space, bring in more air and natural light and thus feel less uptight.
@DonGurugay
@DonGurugay 4 ай бұрын
Thank you for your comments. However, at the point this flat was released there was no option for a second bedroom. Hence there was no knocking down. You would probably see the flats that you mentioned late this year or the next. HDB does take a while to deliver the flats.
