skyblue 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Hello again people, thanks for all the welcome messages. This week is currently week 8 of renovation (mainly carpentry, basin, toilet & WC works), hence photos will be taken this Sunday, so that I will not hinder the work progress and I can take my own sweet time to look around & not obstructing the workers. Haha... Too many questions, so if I missed out any of your questions, do ask again yeah. Metalsubzero Bedroom 3 will be my study/work room, you got to wait till the door is installed (can close at 2 different ends) which I can't explain it here, so I will let the photo "talk" to you. Haha... The private balcony, I will let one side of the windows open when I turn on the air con. The other study room near the main balcony will be guest room or "game" room (like mahjong!!) Bedroom lights were suggested by my ID, as I quite "nuts" in such matters of designing/decorating, likewise for the glass door or frosted glass door. But the see-through kitchen was my idea, because in that way, my mother can keep an eye on my nieces, which she is looking after during the day. Now, my ID is the popular Mr K from Ideal House. =) Cost is $40K + a bit, which will finish by next weekend latest (told Mr K that I'm not in the hurry, so do nice-nice), hence will move in after next week. Pinklady See last paragraph above. =) Will be going out for dinner, will check back with guys later. Cheers! =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good guess mrspiglet, but incorrect. TJ is in one zone, but mine is at the opposite zone, if you get what I mean? Haha... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyblue 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Welcome sky...u got a good layout as well as i love all the glass in ye house...swee!!! Thanks blue, actually I didn't expect that it could turn out that well. Initially I thought the private balcony's door is transparent glass door, and I was thinking what kind of curtain I should be getting at the door or windows (for privacy), but I now, I am not getting which would save me some cost. But the master bathroom door, I did indicate that I would prefer a normal size door than a bi-fold door, I was picturing those condo style bathroom door in my head, but this frosted glass door (with inwards or outwards opening) is definitely great for me too! I guess Mr K should have all the experiences to know how to cater to my likings, haha... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sohck 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Hi people, I took quite a while to look for a point block in the region, but the price was above or around $500K and also, the ages of these blocks are around 30 years old. Then, in August 2008, I chance upon this 10 year-old block and immediately love it. Thus, first appointment in October 2008 and got the keys in January 2009. However, I took a long time to select an ID and the renovation started in week 1 of April 2009, and it is still ongoing. Alright, first thing first, below is the original floor plan. =) Welcome! I also got a point block but it costs me more than $500K. How much did you pay for your house? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
