Both developments are slated to be completed in June 2022, and if you intend to move in within the year, that leaves you with roughly less than 3 months to think about what your future home will look like – and also hunt for a suitable interior designer to execute your renovation plans.

To help you get the ball rolling, we’ve shortlisted 8 HDB homes with compatible layouts/renovation ideas that you too can adopt for your Tampines GreenDew or GreenFoliage BTO flat.

Layout Ideas for Tampines GreenDew flats (3-, 4-, and 5-room units)

Tampines GreenDew is the larger of the two soon-to-be-ready BTO estates in Tampines North, comprising a total of 726 homes (a mix of 3-, 4-, and 5-room flats). Thankfully, all of their layouts are consistent, with most units having their household shelters situated right beside the main entrance.

Occupying a floor size of 69 sqm (66 sqm if you exclude the air-con ledge), the 3-room BTO flats at Tampines GreenDew are as cosy as they come. But like this 3-room BTO flat at Alkaff Crescent with a similar floor plan, there’s plenty that you can do to turn it into an ideal home.

For starters, you too can have a breakfast/food preparation counter in your Tampines GreenDew flat by tearing down the walls outside your kitchen and having a sturdy, quartz-topped storage unit built in their place.

And instead of letting the small pocket of space beside your household shelter go to waste, you could outfit it with suitable furniture to create a compact dining area.

What's truly noteworthy, however, is the amount of space outside the kitchen, which gave the homeowners the freedom to install a prep island, along with a 4-seater dining table. This is an idea that dwellers of Tampines GreenDew 5-room flats can consider too, should they wish to fully maximise their kitchens.

Layout Ideas for Tampines GreenFoliage flats (4-, and 5-room units)

Although only 4- and 5-room units are available at Tampines GreenFoliage, each of these flat types have variations that see the household shelter located in different parts of the house.

4-room flats at Tampines GreenFoliage have a floor area of 93 sqm, which means that there’s probably more than enough room if you’re sharing the space as a couple – this Ang Mo Kio 4-room home with a similar size and layout is proof.

With the help of The Interior Lab, the owners were able to a) open up one of the junior bedrooms before turning it into a walk-in wardrobe/study, and b) create a multipurpose area by making use of walkway space and yet another junior bedroom.

Additionally, the kitchen walls were torn down to accommodate a kitchen island. If you squint hard enough, you’ll find the household shelter – which has a black facade to match the dark industrial theme.

Bedok South Road by Charlotte&#39;s Carpentry

Although it wasn’t overhauled extensively, this 4-room flat at Bedok South (with an almost identical layout to its Tampines GreenFoliage counterparts that have an entryway household shelter) still has enough new features to make it stand out.

For starters, the surroundings are swathed in eye-catching pastel blue and green, which border an open-concept kitchen featuring a counter fronted by classic beadboard.

Also noteworthy is the raised platform beside the living room, which functions both as a cosy corner as well as a casual seating option for friends and family who visit.

Ideas for 4-room BTO flats at Tampines GreenFoliage (along internal walkway):

You don’t always have to stick to the standard layout of a 4-room BTO flat. In fact, you can reconfigure it the way you like (within reason) – similar to what the homeowners of this 4-room flat in Holland Drive did.

What was initially the designated living room is now a dining/work area. In addition, the two junior bedrooms were merged to create a spacious living room, complete with built-in storage that function as a ‘corridor’ leading into the master bedroom.

Like most modern-day 5-room BTO flats, units at Tampines GreenFoliage have some extra square footage near their living rooms that can be used as a study.

And the homeowners of this 5-room BTO flat in Clementi certainly made the most of this space by turning it into a private nook that's free from distractions.

In fact, from certain angles, you won't even be able to tell that the study area is even in the living area. And that, along with a concealed household shelter, keeps the entire house looking seamless.
