238B Tengah Garden Walk

Cognac leather sofas, a whale-tail ceiling fan and glass-block partitions give this Tengah flat a mid-century character that is rare in a brand-new BTO. Daylight passes through the glass blocks into the study, where a low leather lounger waits by the window. The galley kitchen is the owners' favourite: a cherry-red enamel range cooker sits between pale plywood cabinetry and grey stone-look counters, equal parts workhorse and centrepiece. Bedrooms stay soft and simple with timber headboard ledges and linen drapes, while round mirrors and matte-black frames keep the bathrooms in period. A characterful first home that skips every showroom cliché.
