Looks good to me, it does look very well maintained as well. :)

I envy leh, I want to have such a pretty window view from my place also. kekeke.

Thanks :)

after seeing ur pic

i feel like a romantic swim at nite!

what u intending to do 4 ur reno?

chose ur ID?

ya man...

looks nice to swim at nite...but i wonder whether the water is cold...kekek :P

actually we are in the midst of renovating now...

will be updating with more pics soon...

doing up a shoe cabinet, modifying the existing tv console, new study table cum TV console for MBR...painting...polishing floors..changing new lights and shower heads etc...

Not going for ID this time round like wat we did for our old house...

this time will be a contractor who's doing it...cuz we checked with some IDs, they are not really keen in our project and kept asking us to tear down the existing fixtures...tha's why this time will be more ala carte and DIY in designing and color coordinating...

Ya..heard of it..Lilydale..

One of my colleague is staying there...

And he is looking for the right seller..hehe...

I feel that the mgmt should give all the exteriors a good clean up and fresh coat of paint...

Nice place and near the greenery....

and of course, very windy...when i went for my lunch there occasionally

The management are planning to paint it next year or so...saw it in the AGM minutes...

yes...very peaceful and quiet there...and ULU to some pple!!

But with so many kopitiams, NTUC and market within 5 minutes walk...no complaints :)

hehehe

Those wrought iron grilles was a pain when we had our unit in Rosewood.

I noticed your grilles are "fixed", cannot swing open.?
