There’s always jokes that HDB flats are “hamster cages,” and complaints about how small they’ve gotten. But in reality, HDB flats can be incredibly spacious; and some of them come with high-ceilings that make even a regular 4-room feel like a luxury condo unit (at least in the living and dining area!) Here are some of these flats, which made a huge impact on first sight.

Why I like it
This stunning 4-room flat is a 10-minute walk to Queenstown MRT and close to Redhill MRT and Artra. Just six minutes from Dawson Place, the area is rich with food options and a supermarket. Sitting along a park connector that links to the Singapore River, the flat features a soaring double volume ceiling in the living and dining areas, framed by full-height windows for abundant natural light. A sliding window panel between kitchen and living enhances airflow and light, while a separate service yard adds practicality. One of the common bedrooms has been merged with the master to create a walk-in wardrobe and study/dressing space.

A short walk brings you to the park connector leading to Kallang Riverside Park. The flat boasts a rare five-metre-high pitched roof, allowing for mezzanine additions; already done in the master bedroom. Despite being in a low-rise block, it receives excellent natural light. A well-designed layout and high ceiling make this home feel especially spacious and bright.
