Inside A Unique Indochine-Inspired Walk Up Apartment In The East
Get The Property Insights Serious Buyers Read First: Join 50,000+ readers who rely on our weekly breakdowns of Singapore’s property market.
This week, we visit a charming walk up apartment located in Marine Parade. Homeowner Chris self-designed the entire home, which was formerly divided into 6 rooms for rental.
He has gone for a rather unconventional theme that you don’t see in most homes in Singapore, an Indochine one. One of the key changes was the broken down balcony area, which allows for more light to come in.
The doors for the bedrooms are also very different, with arch doors and wood engravings for the doors. Because the unit has more space than the average home, he was able to incorporate an entertainment area in the master bedroom.
Special thanks to Chris for showing us around his distinctive home.
