This is how our housing estate looks like..
I love the theme - Kelong :) Kampong theme..hehe

Anyway once you select your unit, you can **join your Flat's FaceBook Page to have more first hand information as well as to see your flat building progress :)
Some of the pics below is from our Flat's FaceBook Page - Compassvale Boardwalk Family :)
Thanks to our very "ON" neighbours for sharing the pictures with us :)
At times we also go to the block opposite our housing estate to take pics of the building progress to share in the group :) Hope to know our future neighbours and have gatherings after our house come :)
The exact location :)
Tough choice when comes to selection of unit..
We had a hard time deciding.. My fiance is the decision maker.. so I just listen to him :)
We decided to take 5 room flat, so we can only choose the "green units"from the pic on top.. the "yellow units" is 4 rooms..
We went Toa Payoh HDB hub to look at the model almost every now and then..
To have a better idea of which unit to select.. "Kia Su" Singaporean.. haha

Our Estimated date of completion is on 31st Oct 2015, 4th Qtr 2015 :)
We wish that the workers can build faster, so that we can get our key hopefully by early 2015, and move in by mid 2015. Nevertheless, to everyone building our house, your safety is still the top priority! =)
This is our floorplan :) We have lots of ideas on how we want to design our house already..
We **didn'opt for HDB floorings.. so our house will be empty.. start from scratch! :)
