Our new place... step 1!

...


One Sunday we traveled around with a Realtor and saw 9 different condos... at the end of the day Blake and I loved them all but one of them really stood out... Waterfall Gardens... our Realtor told us not to spend to much time analysing them just to pick the one that our gut told us too... so we did... Here is our new home for the next ??? years we are here in Singapore.

Waterfall Gardens

Pierce's favorite part are the shark fins on top of the condo and of course the pool. This place is brand new so there are not that many people living in it yet but the pool always has some one in it and the kids all seem so nice.

We are going to love this place I can tell... it is not much bigger than our old place but we now have 2 balconies instead of one and the helpers quarters are much bigger and storage is nice. The living space is still small but it is new and we get to pick everything out. We spent a week picking out the lighting and the curtains... and now we are furniture shopping so here is step 1... the place at its bare minimum.



We have our own private lift.. the elevator opens to our personal sitting area (shoe area) and here is the view into the living room/balcony.


Here is shot looking back at the elevator.

Once you pass through the living room around the corner is the dining room/kitchen... the kitchen is probably the number one reason I LOVE THIS PLACE. I guess I better start using it.

Here are some views from the balconies... the living room balcony looks over the pool and the master bedroom balcony looks over the streets.


The master bedroom...and master bathroom... blake's favorite thing.

Hallway... sitting bay window.

Janie and Jack bathroom between P's room and guest room (welcoming all guest here).

Pierce's room and/or Guest room... almost exactly the same...

Powder bath in the hallway...

Just another look at the kitchen in case you did not get a good view the first time... wow... weeee..

Behind the kitchen is the good stuff... washer and dryer.... love it.

The helper has a room and a bathroom... and there is an extra storage room... yeah...

We can't wait to show you step 2... things are looking great... we now have lighting and drapes... and some temp furniture... waiting for the real stuff and our shipment from the states... stay tuned... we are having fun.

That kitchen is super shiny, if I lived there I'd be cleaning and polishing constantly! I have issues, I realize this. So happy you found a nice home with a fantastic pool!
