Where to stay with my massive bed!

Post by Luma00 » Wed, 29 Jun 2011 12:07 am

Hey all,

I'm moving to singapore in September and looking to stay in district 9 or 10 with a monthly budget of 10-12k.

I'd like to be able to find a newer place that will take our American kingsize bedroom furniture and a nice balcony/pool/ three beds, and maybe 24hr security, does anyone have any recommendations? We don't have any children.

Thanks in advance

Don't know about the location . Other regulars will advise you

But you can drop your massive bed. If it is super king size which is about 180 cm in width or more you will struggle to fit into the Master Bedroom as the rooms here are rather small. More for Asian built.
You can get one here rather cheap at many retailers here and it will definitely fit into your bedroom

Can't help you on district 9/10

With that size of bed you are best to look at apartments over 10 years old as they tended to be larger square footage overall and therefore larger master bedrooms. You will struggle to find an apartment built within the last 5 years ago that will take any king size beds.

Your best bet is to find an older apartment. The newer apartment are designed with space efficiency in mind, so there is little or no space to accommodate big furnitures. Some of the older apartment are well-maintained and comes with huge spaces as well.

It's not too clear how many bedroom you are looking for, but if you are looking for a huge 2 - 3 bedroom apartment, $10-12k is possible. Look towards Tanglin and Holland Village area, as the property size around there tend to be more spacious compared to Orchard/Sommerset.

There are plenty of places to choose from with the specs you want and within budget - Cosmopolitan and Leonie condotel should tick the right boxes as a starting point.

Check out the Singaporean property sites too.

I had no prob getting a US king-size bed into our condo at Toa Payoh, so not sure what the flap is about.
