O u r O l d N e s t

 
For those of you who have not been to my home, this is where I used to live. I am sorry you will not be able to visit it anymore as I have since sold it, after 4 years of stay.
I bought it in 2009, and the house was in a terrible state. With careful planning (from years of house moving experience) and a good ID, we re-do the house completely. What a transformation after the makeover!

I know you must be asking, "why sell it when the home is so nicely done up?" Well, I do like the house, but I simply loathe the traffic there. It is not a good reason to sell since traffic in Singapore IS always bad. Besides, there's a MRT station that would be coming up soon. But I hate traffic jams! It brings the ugly side of me whenever I am stuck in traffic. I become a monster, really. And did I mention we got a really good offer that we could not resist? :)

Anyway, I have since moved. Where? Well, let's just say that it is free from bad traffic, it is bigger, a lot more windy and comes with a terrific 270 degree view.

Do I miss this house? Honestly, totally not at all. We have settled into the new home so comfortably now - all human, cats and fish....
