Beautifully furnished with wooden cabinets in basement to enjoy your stereo. 

Basement has store room, stereo room and 2 other small rooms.
In the basement, some owners partition one end to be a maid's room as the two other rooms are very small. One is said to be a wine cellar and the other a maid's room.

Family area on 2nd level for children to watch TV while you have privacy downstairs with guests.

Stairs have vertical bars instead of horizontal bars, to prevent toddlers from climbing.

Family room on left and 2 bedrooms in level 2.

Holland Grove View: Good-sized family room to watch TV.

Note the good sized balcony off the second floor master bedroom from the two   semi-detached. Not all houses have balconies.

Walk in closet, shower stall and triangular jacuzzi bath in master bathroom on 3rd level. Another bedroom on level 3. 

Master bathroom with walk in closet, dresser & jacuzzi bath.

Views of the jogging track from side. A bridge across a canal brings residents to the jogging track.

A small maid's room at the basement room sufficient for a bed and a cupboard.   Wet and dry kitchens.

Kitchen (foreground) for non-frying cooking. Outer kitchen near utility area for frying.

A long driveway to park 8 cars for bigger units. Usually residents park outside and gain a bigger area for the kids to play on the car porch.

There are at least 2 store rooms in the basement (used as a wine cellar and a maid's or store room).

Disadvantages:
A 10-15-min walk to the main road. However there are buses to the Bouna Vista subway in a 3-minute ride.
 
ASIAHOMES HOUSE-HUNTING
July 24, 2000 House-hunting for bungalows at $7,000 is tough as there are almost none available at less than $10,000 in expat favoured districts 9, 10, 11 and 21.

Wants a bungalow near the Australian School.  House in Australia was 4,000 sq. ft built in and had a big swimming pool. However, it is extremely difficult to find one for $7,000. Needs 4 bedrooms as daughter and son have own rooms. One for guest. One for parents.

1.30pm  Meet at Changi Airport

2.30pm
Detached
Hua Guan Ave
5+1 9,600 sq. ft land/4.200 sq. ft built in.  $8,500.
Old kitchen. Parquet flooring, big balcony and patio. Big terrace outside master bedroom on 2nd floor. 3 big bedrooms upstairs, 2 downstairs. Lots of ground. Breezy.
Huge above-ground pool and badminton court.

Suits expats with children less than 10 years old and budget below $10,000. A hot Caucasian enclave where houses are usually above 10,000 sq. ft of land.

3pm
Bungalow
Coronation Road West
6+1 10,000 sq. ft land/6,000 sq. ft $8,500. 
Modern marble flooring, large courtyard, little grass patch. A volley ball court.   Huge separate living and dining area. 3 bathrooms with attached bathrooms. Master has a huge private terrace.  A long green fence fronts the living and study room as the access area is common to the neighbour. Suits expats who want big area and not mind loss of privacy via common access road.

3.20pm
Bungalow
Duchess Road
6+2  $10,000.
Modern bungalow with pool. Remodeled with brand new kitchen and bathrooms. Side swimming pool is above ground. Did not give the feeling that it was on 10,000 sq. ft of land.

4.15pm
Semi-detached
Princess of Wales
4+1 2,600/2,800 sq. ft $7,000.
Small patch of grass characteristic of newer semi-detached. Did not impress but this location is very popular with Caucasian expats.

4.45pm
Townhouse in Ridgewood condo
Mount Sinai Rise 3+1+1 2,850sq. ft $7,000
Marble flooring and new baths and kitchen cabinets. Open concept kitchen. Pool just across the lawn.  Short of the  4th bedroom.

5pm
Townhouse in Ridgewood condo.
Mount Sinai Rise 3+1+1 2,850 sq. ft $7,000
Original condition of 15 years.  Will be difficult to get a tenant.  The edges of the dual sinks in the master bedroom has been crudely filled with white silicon.

5.15pm
Semi-detached
Holland Grove View 5+1 2,200/3,700sq. ft $7,500.
Tranquil Holland Grove View.
A Holland Grove View Semi-detached. Narrow side garden and shorter car porch.

Less than 3 years old in a neat subdivision of mainly semi-detached called Holland Grove View.  Big basement which has the maid's room and 2 store rooms.

A table tennis table can be installed. 2 bedrooms on 2nd floor and 2 bedrooms on 3rd floor. Jacuzzi bath and marble tiles in master bathroom. Snow white with greyish streaks in small living and dining area. Small playground for children.  Jogging track by the canal. A hot Caucasian family area.


5.30pm
Semi-detached
Namly Drive 3+1 3,200/4,000sq. ft $8,000
Both fell in love with this California bright yellow walled 2-storey house. Brand new modern house with open concept kitchen and big patio at side for al fresco dining. Car porch for one car. Translucent plastic like awning outside living room brings in natural daylight.
Lacks a 4th bedroom.


6pm
Semi-detached
King's Drive, Kingsville 5+1 2,700/3,000 sq. ft $8,500.
Less than 2 years old subdivision called Kingsville, mainly semi-detached.
3-storeys, cul de sac. This unit's back is fixed to the back of the neighbour, giving the impression it is a bungalow. 

Though it has 2 side gardens, these gardens are almost fully tiled by the Owner.   Therefore, no green grass patch for the dog.    

Conclusion.  For big garden, the Hua Guan bungalow was the favourite with the husband. Will the Owner rent for $7,000?
