Completed in 2009, this contemporary 5-bedroom bungalow with all bedrooms en suite sits on approximately 4,310 sq ft of land and offers an impressive 7,400 sq ft of usable space. Available for lease at S$23,000 per month, the home is designed around generous living spaces, abundant natural light, a private lap pool, multiple outdoor areas, a private lift and excellent separation between entertaining, family and service zones.
Ground Floor – Living, Dining & Entertaining
The expansive living area forms a bright and impressive introduction to the home. Full-height glazing runs along both sides, with the private lap pool on one side and the car porch on the other, creating an open outlook and allowing daylight to flow throughout the space. Its regular proportions provide ample flexibility for substantial lounge furniture while maintaining comfortable circulation. The adjoining pool and timber deck further enhance the relaxed, resort-style ambience.
A streamlined passage leads from the living room towards the dining area, with convenient access to the powder room and staircase to the upper levels. The powder room is discreetly positioned away from the bedrooms and features a clean, minimalist design with a freestanding pedestal basin and large mirror, making it particularly convenient for guests.
The passage opens into a generously proportioned dining area with high ceilings and extensive glazing. Full-height sliding doors create excellent indoor-outdoor connectivity: on one side, the dining area faces the lap pool and pool deck, while at the other end a water feature and additional timber deck provide another attractive outdoor outlook. This dual aspect gives the dining room abundant natural light and a particularly open, airy character.
Immediately adjoining the dining room is the dry kitchen, designed as both a practical preparation area and a sociable extension of the entertaining space. It incorporates a generous island with integrated sink, extensive cabinetry, refrigerator, built-in oven and microwave, cooking hob and hood. Its open relationship with the dining area makes serving and entertaining especially convenient.
Wet Kitchen, Yard & Household Service Areas
Beside the dry kitchen is a dedicated wet kitchen for heavier cooking, fitted with a gas hob, cooker hood, sink, countertop space, cabinetry and open shelving. It connects directly to the yard, creating a practical back-of-house zone for cooking, laundry, washing and drying while keeping household operations separate from the formal living and dining areas.
The service area continues to a utility room with an attached WC and shower, together with a household shelter. The utility room includes storage cabinetry and a high-level window for natural light and ventilation, while the adjoining WC provides a self-contained bathroom facility for household or domestic staff use.
Family Area, Private Lift & Ground-Floor Guest Suite
Beside the dining area is a versatile family area that also serves as the private lift lobby. Full-height glazing overlooks a landscaped bamboo strip, introducing greenery, privacy and natural light. The space can function as a secondary lounge, reading area or informal family retreat, while the private lift provides convenient access to the upper floors.
At the far end is the ground-floor guest bedroom, an especially practical arrangement for visitors, extended family or elderly parents who may prefer to avoid the stairs. The room is generously proportioned, with warm timber flooring, extensive windows, full-length curtains and built-in wardrobes with frosted-glass sliding doors. Its private ensuite bathroom incorporates a glass-enclosed shower, vanity counter, basin and large mirror, completing a comfortable self-contained guest suite.
Staircase & Private Lift
The home offers both a private residential lift and an architectural staircase, providing two convenient ways to move between floors. The staircase combines timber treads, white risers, glass balustrades, a sleek metal handrail and extensive glazing, allowing natural light to filter through the different levels.
Level 2 – Master Suite, Bedrooms 1 & 2
At Level 2, the staircase opens into a bright landing. One passage leads privately towards the master bedroom, while the opposite side extends into a gallery-style walkway towards Bedrooms 1 and 2. Full-height glazing, timber flooring and a glass balustrade give the landing an airy feel, with an elevated view over the dining area and dry kitchen below. The private lift also arrives on this level for convenient access to the bedroom wing.
Master Bedroom & Ensuite
The master bedroom is exceptionally spacious, with a high ceiling that reinforces its sense of scale. Warm timber flooring, expansive full-height windows and external screening create a bright yet private retreat, while extensive built-in wardrobes with sliding panels, hanging space, drawers and shelving provide substantial storage. The room can comfortably accommodate a king-sized bed together with a lounge, reading or study area.
Its master ensuite bathroom is equally generous and has a distinctive spa-like quality. The space includes a large jetted bathtub set within a timber-finished surround, a separate walk-in shower with rain and handheld shower fittings, double vanity basins, an expansive mirror, WC and bidet. Natural light, timber accents and clearly defined bathing and grooming zones create a luxurious private retreat.
Bedroom 1 & Ensuite
At the opposite end of the Level 2 landing, Bedroom 1 is positioned on the right. The room is bright and generously proportioned, with extensive corner glazing, warm timber flooring, sheer curtains and built-in timber window ledges. A large wardrobe with frosted sliding-glass doors provides practical storage while preserving usable floor space.
Its private Bathroom 1 features light-toned finishes, a glass-enclosed shower with contrasting darker finishes, a wall-mounted basin, vanity counter, large mirror, WC and chrome fittings, providing a complete self-contained ensuite.
Bedroom 2 & Ensuite
Bedroom 2 is positioned on the left and shares the same warm, contemporary aesthetic. A broad window brings in ample daylight, complemented by sheer curtains, full-length drapes and a timber window ledge. Built-in wardrobes with frosted sliding panels provide generous storage, while the regular proportions allow flexible placement of a bed, study desk and additional furniture.
The adjoining Bathroom 2 features a wall-mounted basin and mirrored cabinet, glass-enclosed shower, contrasting darker finishes and a wide frosted window that provides both natural light and privacy.
Level 3 – Roof Terrace & Bedroom 3
The staircase continues to Level 3, where a bright upper landing opens directly onto the roof terrace. Extensive glazing and glass balustrades keep the stairwell filled with natural light and create a seamless transition from the interior to the rooftop outdoor space.
The roof terrace is a substantial open-air area finished with outdoor tiles and contemporary glass balustrades. Its elevated position provides open views over the surrounding greenery and neighbourhood skyline, while the generous floor area can accommodate outdoor lounge seating, dining furniture or landscaped planters. A sheltered passage connects the terrace with the Level 3 lift landing and Bedroom 3.
The private lift also serves Level 3, arriving immediately beside the entrance to Bedroom 3, making the uppermost bedroom easily accessible while allowing it to retain a secluded position near the roof terrace.
Bedroom 3 & Ensuite
Bedroom 3 is a bright, spacious top-floor suite with warm timber flooring, floor-to-ceiling glazing and full-length curtains. A large bank of built-in wardrobes with frosted-glass sliding doors provides generous storage, while the room’s proportions comfortably accommodate a substantial bed and additional furnishings. Its location beside the roof terrace gives this bedroom a particularly private character.
The private Bathroom 3 is finished in a contemporary palette of light tiles, glass and darker accents. It includes a glass-enclosed shower, handheld and wall-mounted shower fittings, a wall-mounted basin and vanity counter, an expansive mirror, a WC, and a large frosted window that introduces natural light while preserving privacy.
