Cluster vs Landed

[a man called hors]

Hi,

We will be moving to Singapre in March 07. We being my wife, 2 kids (5 and 2) and dog.

We have never been to Singapore and have been searching for accommodation "blind" over the internet. Our budget is $5500 and we would like a 4 bedroom place if poss. I will be working on Bras Basah Road.

We are considering either Tanglin Trust or Chatsworth East as a school.

So far I like the look of Kew Green, D'Manor and Fernhill Cottage because I like the idea of shared facilities eg pool but also a bit of space. At the same time we are worried that we might need a garden for our dog as she is used to her own garden.

Any advice on specific locations or general would be really welcome!

Thanks
