福特大道优质平房
位于新加坡黄金地段 10 区的利顿公园附近的福特大道死胡同,一座 9,990 平方英尺的两层优质平房 (GCB) 坐落在一片 15,600 平方英尺的土地上,绿树成荫。
走近房子,会发现一条宽敞的车道和前廊,可停放多达八辆汽车。在房子的入口处,水池上方的大石板将一个人引导到室内,然后上楼梯到主客厅。下一刻,一个人进入了一个豪华宽敞的世界,4 米高的天花板和墙壁大到足以让任何认真的艺术收藏家装满他或她最喜欢的艺术品。
在主客厅对面,一条走廊通向主卧室,主卧室自带独立式浴缸,让您与大自然融为一体。沿着那条走廊往下走,最终到达一个美丽的泳池露台。足不出户,您会立即感受到置身于度假胜地。位于房子两翼之间的是一个令人惊叹的 23 米长的小型游泳池,非常适合在家锻炼,或者只是泡个澡享受阳光。
业主已要求房屋的建筑师 RT+Q 新加坡的 Rene Tan 允许房屋中的生活区域具有多功能性和灵活性。它使房子非常适合一个大家庭,因为一楼有几个房间,其中一个足够大,可以改造成家庭办公室。在楼层之间上下移动是轻而易举的事,因为二楼也可以通过带有玻璃墙的内置电梯进入。
房子被茂密的野生植物和两侧的运河隔开。当黄昏降临时,房子的美丽完全变成了另一种氛围。夜幕降临,月光洒在水面上,映照在午夜的蓝天上,人们几乎忘记了自己身在新加坡。
Ford Avenue Good Class Bungalow
Situated at a Ford Avenue cul-de-sac, close to Leedon Park in Singapore’s prime district 10, a lovely 9,990 sq ft, two-storey Good Class Bungalow (GCB) stands handsomely on a 15,600 sq ft plot of land amidst lush greenery.
Approaching the house, one finds a spacious driveway and front porch that could park up to eight cars. At the entrance of the house, large stone slabs over a pool of water lead one indoors and up a stairway to the main living room. In the next moment, one enters into a luxuriously spacious world with 4-metre-high ceilings and walls large enough for any serious art collector to fill up with his or her favourite art.
Opposite the main living area, a corridor leads to the master bedroom, which comes with its own free-standing bathtub, and makes you feel one with nature. Further down that corridor, one eventually reaches a beautiful pool terrace. You’ll instantaneously feel that you are at a resort without even leaving your home. Situated in between both wings of the house is an amazing 23 metre lap pool which is perfect for exercising at home, or just to take a dip and enjoy the sun.
The owners had asked the architect of the house, Rene Tan of RT+Q Singapore, to allow for the living areas in the house to have versatility and flexibility. It makes the house perfect for a large family as there are several rooms on the ground floor, including one that is large enough to be converted into a home office. Going up and down between floors is a breeze as the second floor is also accessible via a discreetly built-in lift with glass walls.
The house is separated from the neighbouring properties by dense wild foliage and a canal on two sides. When dusk falls, the beauty of the house changes to another ambience altogether. One could almost forget that he is in Singapore when night falls and the moonlight shines on the water, reflecting the light into the midnight blue sky.
