Yup! 3rd owner! Wahh..you can see that from the pictures! I can't decide about the jacuzzi too.. !!

Think it must be the flash lights making the tiles look brighter..it was renovated 5-6 years back..so actually it looks quite new..they spent 90-100k on renovation and furnishings!!

Marble flooring, solid wood staircase railings...all fittings and furnishings look really expensive..but not too my taste and liking..it's kinda classical..

But they'll be moving most of the things, including the lightings..so I have to buy a lot of things too...

Thank you!! Feeling really excited about doing up the house!! Think all 1st time owners feel the same way right?

now that i see the pics....your $$$$ very worth wor....so beautiful liao nothing much to do leh.

Nice big place you got there Angie. Happy renovating.

Thank you!! I like the way you take your pictures!! Look really pro! How's your reno progressing? Looks like a major overhaul!

Me last to spam chop.

So Angielim what is ur house theme har? Country Style?

Errrr.......dunno leh...haven't really decide...having a headache too..since have to keep some of the old decor to cut costs, quite difficult to decide on a design.. !!

Will leave the headache to my ID!! Haven't seen any designs from him yet though...still awaiting reno loan's approval!

now that i see the pics....your $$$$ very worth wor....so beautiful liao nothing much to do leh.

Can save a lot of $$$ on flooring and the stairs lor...but would still like to do it up to my liking...I kinda like modern zen..spacious and not too cluttered..

guess it's not easy to find a resale flat that we'll like everything about it

sometimes the location and layout is good but the renovation is simply not our style

from the pix the bathrooms looks quite bright, although the colour of the jacuzzi is a little dark

maybe can consider spray painting over it instead of removing the whole thing

the craftstone-liked tiles also very nice

how i wish someone can just wave a wand and switch my bathroom with angie's

Same thoughts! Will leave the other 2 rooms empty for now..maybe will just get some Ikea study tables and shelves for my study room...will cost too much to get it done up..

Yup! Bought it for the location! Wanted to be near hub's family.. !!

Those are slate tiles with uneven surfaces..but it traps dirt easily though..the 1st time I saw the house, it looks really new and good..but a few months after I exercised the OTP..can see algae around the corners!! Can't imagine how often I've to clean the toilet!!

Can spray-paint the jacuzzi?!?

Dunno leh...5-6 years only, if you can tahan their neo classical style, you can save on renovations 'else to tear down all these in good condition, product of $100 reno, seem a bit wasteful. But, your taste - zen is miles away from neo classical leh...

There was another forumer whose original condition was really very nice, country style...they redid the whole place modern style. Fortunately, they had great taste and the renovated flat turned out very well, or else people would be scratching their heads at the change.

you mean the owners no longer stay there?

or they simply bo chap now that they've found a buyer

love the look the slate tiles gives, and the jacuzzi is a :D

not so sure about spray-painting the jacuzzi

thought should be able to, since wall and floor tiles can be spray-painted

it's really a waste to just hack and throw it away

did the FSM say the toilet too dark?

maybe can find ways to counter? really sayang loh

They are still living there, they requested to stay for another 1 1/2 months..most prob they simply bo chap anymore! Just went to take a look on Sat..looks like a war zone!

The whole house looks really dark..since they wall-papered every inch of the house..we still prefer everything to be bright and white!
