The mock apartment’s entrance comprises of a fire rated timber door which makes way to the main lounge showcasing opulent furnishings. The lounge also doubles up with a spacious dining area that also faces a designer kitchen equipped with all modern amenities such as pantry cupboard and counter top, kitchen sink, contemporary faucet with pull-down spray, cooker with electric and gas burners, cooker hood, a double-door refrigerator, microwave oven, baker oven and waste processor.

All the relevant furniture have been entirely imported from China from the best of international brands that have been deemed most well-defined in China’s upscale market.
Another facet about the kitchen area is that there will be a dedicated balcony area which will also help to allow in proper ventilation and natural light, especially during the preparation of meals. The maid’s room is also another added component with own attached bathroom. Speaking of the location, the most-talked about feature of this super venture is the location.
