Yea quite big indeed, my initial plan was for an EM or EA but the prices were ridiculous at Tampines St 12, not willing to pay so much as I intend to save up for a second property in 5 years time if property price slides abit...

My MBR bathroom entrance will be shifted to accommodate a walk in wardrobe which will eat into the dining hall space which is totally acceptable for our small family...

A view of the MRB new toilet entrance from dining room perspective, although when completed, it would be blocked by an L-Shaped wall and walk-in wardrobe:
