This week, we visit the home of not just one, but two architect’s! Homeowners Jie Lun and Jen have completely transformed this 5-room HDB resale flat at Jurong Lakeside into a much more open but yet still intimate home. It’s a corner unit, so it enjoys more privacy, but the most unique aspect of the home is the rounded windows at both ends of the home (the master bedroom and common bedroom).
Homes like this are as much about the property underneath as the design on top. The right layout, block and tenure make renovations like these possible, or much harder to achieve later.
That's often where we help readers: evaluating the property first, before committing to a big purchase.
Over time, that's also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.
The previous layout featured 3 bedrooms and a study, but they have optimised the floor plan to suit their lifestyle instead. One of the common bedrooms was removed, and instead forms a really expansive walk-in wardrobe instead. The study is now the dining area, and that move means the living and kitchen areas can now be left completely opened for hosting friends and family. An conventional touch here is definitely the timber ceilings that provide a more homely ambience to the space.
Special thanks to Jie Lun and Jen for showing us around their wonderfully cosy home. For more on the space, please visit: https://www.instagram.com/jjjenyoung/
