Ee-ling 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 Hello everybody, I've been reading this forum for sometime and gaining lotsa information from all the kind folks here. Me and fiancee going for a 4A resale somewhere in central north as our love nest, waiting for first appt in late April. Already been doing paper planning and thought of setting a t blog here to share with you guys and also to seek opinions. For a start, here is the original floorplan. Its 104 sqm. We plan to keep the reno simple with the emphasis of maintenance free. Hence, minimal hacking and built-in stuffs. This is our current configuration from floorplanner: While waiting for the first appt in late April, shortlisting contractor/ID and plan to start work hopefully in June. Do give your comments and opinions of my floorplan and share how you might have plan it. All comments are welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ee-ling 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2010 Yup, don't need to hack any walls. The current layout looks good. It's big for a 4 room! The 2 bedrooms are small though. The kitchen is also small, due to the service balcony. We don't want to integrate the service balcony though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ee-ling 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2010 I'm having a problem with the kitchen. Its small at 3m by 3m. How can i create more storage/cabinet spaces? I think the position of the 2 doors does not help. I'm thinking of shifting the position of the door as shown below. I like the idea of having a bartop. Any ideas how I can create more cabinet spaces? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ee-ling 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 Latest change in plan. Going to rotate the storeroom so that there is more space at the main door entrance to create some kind of foyer and space for shoe rack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi El Nino, We are not into having a bathtub so definitely will not have one. What do u mean by mbr bath open concept? Surely the shower and wc area must be walled up right? So expose the basin? There is a window at the wall between the service balcony and kitchen, just besides the door. But i thought of removing that to lessen the maintenance.
