3-bedroom units offer excellent flexibility for families. Start with a master bedroom, nursery, and guest room/study. As children grow, convert the study to a second child's room. The extra space allows for toy storage, play areas, and separate study zones. Consider child-proofing requirements and proximity to good schools when choosing location.
Void decks host community events, celebrations, and sometimes funeral wakes that can create noise and activity. Lower floor rooms may be more affected by these activities. While these are part of HDB community life, understand the typical schedule and duration of events, and plan accordingly for noise-sensitive activities like sleep or work calls.
Aim to return the home in similar condition, focusing on kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring. Degrease hoods, wipe seals, and clear drains. Replace spent bulbs and wash removable filters. Provide dated photos after cleaning to support a smooth deposit outcome.
Even with more space, it’s wise to plan storage to avoid clutter. Use the built-in wardrobes in the bedrooms. If one bedroom is spare, add extra shelves or cabinets there. Use any storeroom or utility room for bulky items. Assign each type of item a spot so storage is spread out. And declutter regularly even with more room.
Yes, but you need to plan your space carefully. Dedicate a corner for a small desk (or a foldable wall-mounted desk)6}. Use a shelf or curtain to separate your “office” from your bed. Having that defined work zone helps you focus in a studio.
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.
Master rooms often face away from common corridors and have better sound insulation. The ensuite means fewer bathroom queue interactions with housemates. Larger windows might offer better views and natural light. However, check if the master room faces busy streets or neighboring blocks, which could impact privacy and noise levels.
No private pools or gyms, but you’ll find community clubs, sports centres, and public pools nearby. Many tenants prefer the neighbourhood feel and everyday convenience.
