Saw the fan and he gave good prices (compared it to my current fan) but not sure if its the same one as Royal Franco. I like Smallboy's gun-metal color fan. Missed Royal Franco when I did my walk along Jln Besar last week, only popped in Hoe Kee and another shop along that row.

i went to check the smallboy fan at Extreme..cheaper by $10, regulator also cheaper by $10...Alex was telling us the franco brand fan, latest one is aclyric...about 225 with regulator

Smallboy fan, think they'll be pleased to the fan named after them

Now waiting at home for HDB ppl to inspect my current flat since I'm selling.... And still waiting for my 2nd appt date.... Wait wait wait.... Thgt S'pore civil service very efficient???

According to my agent and another agent I know, pretty good price for a 2nd flr unit. Only 4k COV (still throw in our washing machine+Teak wood dining table....) but we knew it'll be hard getting a good price for a 2nd flr flat, so was pleasantly surprised to sell abv value.

Preciousjam and Kthc, hahaha... so honored to have the fan named after us.

Anyway, we also like the Black acrylic one. But more ex so didn't buy.

Maybe next time the ventilation fan also name after you too;)

Inspection finally over, everything ok. Now to continue harassing for my 2nd appt date...

Thanks, very useful, especially the pictures. Have been trying to recall and guess how the place looks like, with your pictures, at least can start planning the living room's design first.

The last time we were there, only focus on the small kitchen & wanted to check if it was hot cos of the facing.

Well that depends on your block and facing. Tell me more about it, maybe I am advise....

As for my unit, please do not be misled because I hack away the room beside the master and move back the wall to create the dinnign area. The Hall/ Dinning area thus seems bigger as I sacrifice 1 room for that. My master was made slightly bigger and I still have 1 common rm + 1 study.

For Kitchen I also hace away the entire wall and made an open concept.

Hope the above helps.

Mine is 339B, slightly west facing. We did consider hacking the wall of one of the rooms to make it MBR larger but we've decided to keep the room for now. Will only hack half of the kitchen wall to make a counter and to provide some sense of space for the tiny kitchen.

For the kitchen, to maximise the space, we'll be making a U shape cabinet with sink facing the new opening, hob opp the window and a tall cabinet & tiny workspace at the opposite wall. Leaving just sufficient space for fridge and washing machine. A little tight but since we don't cook that often, should be passable.

Am moving from Wellington Circle to there. We've considered other places but decided to stick to Sembawang for now, other places stick relatively high.
