Imagine waking up to this view everyday. 🌿

Compact, turnkey, and full of industrial character. 🧱
At 430 sqft, Polaris Suite is a one-bedroom, split-level loft directly opposite Farrer Park MRT. Cement screed floors and exposed brick anchor the lower level, softened by timber kitchen fittings. Upstairs, beneath a pitched roof, the bedroom opens onto a private roof terrace beside a fully green-tiled bath.

A custom-built cabinet doubles as a sofa with concealed storage, and the washing machine sits seamlessly within the cabinetry.

Split-level lofts are a rarity in this neighbourhood. This one is fully furnished, with wifi, utilities, and quarterly AC servicing included. If you are drawn to a home with raw character and thoughtful design, 📩 send a DM to arrange a viewing.

🗓️ S$3,300 / mo

Two homes, one address. 🗝️

In 2018, an underused service room got a second life. It's now a fully self-contained studio with its own entrance and an original spiral staircase at the back. Dual-key living, done right.

The rest of the home? A quiet history lesson. A 1960s ceiling fan turns above 1970s terrazzo, beside 1980s marble. Each layer was added by a different generation, and none of it was erased by the next.

Then there's the view. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame a heritage tree's canopy so full, the city seems to stop right outside the glass.

Heritage bones, modern flexibility. Rarely both in one address.

🏡 A home that reflects how you actually live will make you happier than the developer's cookie-cutter default.

Take one of the homes I recently worked on: pastel walls, original tiles, timber that shows its grain, and brass fixtures already earning their wear. True character no new luxury launch can replicate.

I don't just list homes like this — I know what goes into making one. This is the space I work in: homes where someone has already put thought into the bones, or homes with the right bones waiting for someone who will. Shophouses. Walk-ups. Terraces. Character apartments. Even HDB flats.

Homes with real character deserve to be marketed to people who'll recognise what they're looking at. If that's the home you're in and you're thinking of selling or renting it, I'd like to have a chat.

Bright, generous, and refreshingly untypical. 🌿

At 1,442 sqft, Apartment Kreme is a spacious two-bedroom corner walk-up in Joo Chiat. Original parquet floors run through much of the home, while windows on multiple sides bring in plenty of natural light. A balcony extends the living space outdoors.

The kitchen and bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated, offering contemporary comforts without losing the character of the original apartment.

Corner units with this layout are rare. This one's for anyone who loves the charm of an older home but doesn't want to give up modern conveniences.

🏷️ Rent: S$6,400 / month

Apartment Goa @ Farrer Park

Curated Tenants for Curated Homes

When this walk-up apartment was renovated, the owner made one deliberate choice: to keep a section of the original 1960s mosaic tiles. Because some things are worth preserving.

For years, we’ve been sharing homes that felt a little different. Not necessarily bigger or newer, but homes with character and a point of view.

To reflect that more clearly, My Abode is not Uncommon Homes.

The name is new. The philosophy remains the same.

If you have an uncommon home to rent or sell, we’ll like you speak to you. Drop us a message.
