FAQs
Yes, definitely. With four bedrooms, you probably have a spare room that can become an office or hobby space. It’s common to turn the extra room into a study, art studio, home gym, etc. You don’t have to use all bedrooms for sleeping. Furnish that room for its purpose (desk, shelves, workout gear, etc.). If needs change, you can turn it back into a bedroom, but it’s great to have that flexibility.
HDB flats typically offer more space and functional layouts for the price. You’ll likely appreciate everyday conveniences nearby. Focus on block condition, lift reliability, and airflow. If you value community feel and straightforward living, HDB can be a comfortable fit.
Measure wardrobe depth, check for full-length hanging, and look for shelves that suit daily items. Visualize bed placement, door swing, and airflow. Make sure a desk or cot fits without blocking pathways or covering sockets and switches.
Place your desk in the living area and keep the bedroom for sleep. Close the bedroom door for mental separation. Good habits around screen time help the space feel restful after hours.
Families need significant storage for clothing, toys, school supplies, and household items. Look for built-in wardrobes in each bedroom, linen closets, kitchen storage, and utility areas. Check if there's a storeroom, under-stair storage, or if you can add storage furniture without overcrowding the space.
HDB's ethnic integration policy may limit rental options based on the current ethnic composition of the block. This affects both tenants and landlords. Be prepared for potential limitations and understand that this is a government policy designed to maintain racial harmony, not discrimination by individual landlords.
Usually, but not always. Some ‘master’ rooms share a bathroom. Confirm if it’s attached, exclusive, and ventilated, and check water pressure, heater type, and any morning queue issues.
1-bedroom units offer better work-life separation than studios with a dedicated bedroom for sleep and living area for work. You can have video calls without showing your bed, and maintain professional backgrounds. However, the limited space means you'll need efficient furniture and good organization. Consider noise levels from neighbors and ensure good internet connectivity for reliable remote work.
