Welcome to RT and best of all, welcome to yishun ! ur layout is actually the same as mine, except that i have wall infront of the main door.

Finally got my apartment keys on 26 feb after a few calls made to HDB. HDB was rather fast, kudos to them, a 3mth wait was experdited to a 1mth+ wait.

Here are the pics of the flat.

I have currently shortlisted the following IDs

1) Darwin

2) Homely Image

3) Calibre Design.

Awaiting reply from them, now pondering if I should get rid of the marble tiles as it will devalue the house...

hello.. welcome to RT! the marble doesn't go with your theme?

Hi, I think u can reuse the lamp, maybe give it a coat of paint to 'refreshen' it.

Welcome to RT and hope you have a fun and enjoyable reno journey! =)

Hi, thanks! i kinda feel the marble is a bit tainted, and the colour does not quite with my theme, unless i change my theme to suit the marble.

wonder if any forumer has used Calibre Design or Homely Image as their ID. Would like to know their workmanship and their service..

Haha!! sure sure... the feeling is almost unreal! hahaha i have always first 10 q numbers are for HDB to issue if citizens come along and bang the table at HDB HUB. . Well im glad i got it.

I selected Yishun area

hi Adah, welcome to T-Blog.

I bought mine from HDB as well during the oct balance flats.

Looking forward to see ur t-blog, who are the IDs you are interested in currently?

Hi Mountainsmith,

Welcome!! You're so lucky to get no. 1 Q#.

Your house layout is similar to mine except for the kitchen area. I think your marble look good too, it will be shiny after the polish. I thought marble will be suitable for victorian theme?

By the way, Im curious about the floor area of your flat. Is it 110sqm or 120sqm?
