Hi all, and here we are to document our reno journey with all fellow renotalk readers. Of course, I myself is one of the readers as well. To cut things short, here is the floor plan: Purchased an HDB 5 room resale in July, proceeded to market my current flat in Aug and sold it in Sept. Phew... October came and we collected our keys to the resale flat. Renovation commenced straightaway the next day. Reason being, I need to handover my current flat in December. So, gotto rush. Here's some pre reno photos we took the day we collected our keys: common bedrooms master rm the inner part of the living hall poorly maintained kitchen common toilet As u can see from the photos, the condition of the flat wasn't too good. so it calls for a full overhaul. Everything in the flat needs a new facelift and the person to do that facelift, at this moment, I will address him as YL. YL was also the magical man behind the reno of my current flat which I will be handling over to the buyer this December. Now I rest my newly purchased resale flat with him to complete the facelift for us. As our title suggest, infact, it was YL who gave me this idea, a "chill out bar home". Keeping our fingers crossed, we are both fully laid back and shall wait for YL to "surprise" us.
