Whether its looks or useful design features, these homes have something inspiring to offer!
What makes Northshore Drive so special among HDB estates in Singapore isn’t just its proximity to the seafront. It’s also HDB’s first smart and eco-friendly district in Punggol with all sorts of high-tech features, from new-generation parking systems to flats equipped with power-monitoring sockets and distribution boards.
So, if you’re lucky to call this neighbourhood home, there’s probably plenty to look forward to in the future. But in the meantime, how about getting some inspiration for your renovation?
Here, we share 8 examples of well-renovated Northshore Drive HDB flats that are balanced in form, shape, and function!
1. A Northshore Drive HDB flat that has no lack of useful storage solutions

Storage solutions are a must for any space-efficient home and if you’re looking to add more to your BTO flat, try taking a page from this Northshore Drive apartment that possesses a variety of built-ins which make decluttering an issue of the past. Or at the very least, less of a headache.
Other than an inconspicuous storeroom fronted by a façade of dark wood panels, there’s also a space-saving bed in the guest/spare room which can be conveniently tucked away when there’s no one over.
2. A charming, mid-century modern Northshore Drive BTO flat

Time and again, the mid-century modern look has proven to be the right choice for anyone who’s interested in having a modern-day BTO flat with the look of a yesteryear home. If you’re a fan of this aesthetic, this Northshore Drive is yet another example that deserves to be in your bookmarks.
It’s here that stylish retro details – such as wood panelling, curves, and fluted glass – shine in an elegant indoors setting which embodies the very best qualities of mid-century modern themed homes, from cleanliness to nostalgic charm.
3. An airy Northshore Drive HDB flat with abundant natural light

Dark homes might carry edgy appeal, but honestly, we prefer bright-looking flats because nothing says “fresh and crisp” quite like a whitewashed space flooded with natural light. Moreover, the idea of an open-concept layout is one that goes hand-in-hand with a well-lit BTO flat.
In particular, this Northshore Drive BTO flat caught our eye because of its warm and welcoming atmosphere, which translates into comfortable spaces, including a spacious kitchen with a concealed storeroom in front of it as well as a compact, but conducive bedroom reading corner.

Thanks to warm lights that cast a soft, calming glow on almost every walls and corner, this Northshore Drive flat is as homey as it gets. However, that isn’t the only thing that’s appealing about it.
Take a peek into the kitchen and you’ll find a clean-lined space with an equally sleek counter to match. And the best part of all? This bespoke built-in comes with a space-saving dining table that can be rotated inwards to be hidden away when mealtime is over.
5. A monochrome Northshore Drive BTO flat with a study-cum-walk-in-wardrobe

Taking things in a different direction in more ways than one, this monochrome Northshore Drive BTO flat features edgy appeal (as opposed to its entirely white-walled counterparts above) along with a study that pulls double duty.
While some couples would opt to merge two rooms to create a larger master bedroom with changing space, these homeowners instead took the unique approach of having their home office outfitted with glass-fronted wardrobes to create a walk-in closet.
6. An uplifting Northshore Drive HDB flat with flexible spaces

Just taking a look at it, we can feel the positive energy that this stimulating (but also, well-composed) 4-room Northshore Drive BTO flat radiates. Bright pops of colour as well as an eclectic selection of accessories and furniture bring life to the communal area, which is comprised of the living room as well as an adjoining bedroom-turned-cosy-corner.
Also of note is a set of translucent fluted glass sliding panels bordering the kitchen, which lends it the flexibility to be used as a breakfast corner for light meals in the day or a closed-off space for heavy cooking when friends and family come over at night.
7. A warm and inviting Northshore Drive BTO flat with MUJI vibes
View this project by Design Identity
There’s plenty to like about the MUJI look. For one, it’s simple and works great if an almost no-frills home is what you wish for. Also, it espouses practicality and straightforwardness in design – which is exactly what this minimalist Northshore Drive BTO flat is all about.
By embracing warm woods, neutral and clean lines, this pleasing home fully captures the aesthetic of a MUJI catalogue. And at the same time, it complements these visual elements with functional, good-looking spaces, from an open-concept home office to a cosy nook by the window.
8. A Northshore Drive HDB flat with a two-in-one bookcase

From the front and sides, it’s almost impossible to tell that this Northshore Drive BTO flat’s kitchen extends beyond its usual confines. But take a look behind the entryway’s display case and you’ll find a space-maximising dry kitchen setup.
Moreover, this useful pocket of space comes with ample countertop room for appliances and even a baking oven tucked away at the side. If this isn’t an efficient idea then we aren’t sure what is!
