Kitchen



Wow! I manage to find a software in Ikea website to produce this!!! Wonderful!!!

Now, we can envisage what our kitchen will look like in red!!! Sexy hor? Love it! Looks so modern and cool!

Colours

What are happy colours? That's what i wish our home will have.
Red ...red ...red ... cannot think of any... heee .... what will we have...red sofa, red kitchen cabinet... maybe red toilet? Wahaha! Think the old folks will faint seeing our house :p

Somehow, i like the colour of our present living room... maybe will stick to that.

What other happy colours are there? Orange? Looks good ar? Aiyo... i really cant wait to get the keys to renovate the place.

Floor Plan







Other than the map, we also have bought the floor plan... not exactly KS lah but it's proper planning ...haha!



KH bought this fr HDB Hub for $5/-... yeah! Our dream ideas can start to flow.....


We hope to renovate our home to a bright and cheerful theme :)













257 - where exactly is it?

I uploaded the map of this part of Bishan... no no, our new place is not where the star is.


First Post

Hello! This is the first time I am creating a blog... i hope to record down the ups and downs we experience in buying and renovating our flat.

It all started because we wish to enrol Aaron into a so called "good" school.... for me, i hope to get him into a school with God as an influence in his life.... after thinking through, we decided that Bishan is the best location.... so Bishan, here we come!!! Bidding farewell to the good old Bukit Panjang soon.

25/12/06 - Alan, our ERA agent informed us that there are flats to view in Bishan. We went for mass at Risen Christ, after which lunch at Ponderosa and met up with Alan. Viewed 3 units but either low floor or too expensive!

29/12/06 - Andrew, our ERA agent informed us that there is a flat for sale at Blk 257.

31/12/06 - Majong session at MIL's place. We went to view the Bishan flat at 1pm. Big EM, 151 sq m, lift level.... quite ok but i thought it was a bit cluttered and renovation v old. H/e, KH likes it for the location and facing. We thought over it for a while. Andrew said we can try anything near $460k.

1/1/07 Finally, we plucked up courage to make an offer ...hee hee a major new year decision. Owners reverted that they are ok with the price.

2/1/07 We met up with the owners to sign the OTP. 90 days to exercise the option.... hmmmm.... a bit long

9/2/07 Andrew informed that the owners have found a place in AMK and he will submit for a valuation of the place once confirmed....
