Eng Kong Garden is a typical three storey semi-detached house that was completed in 2013 by HYLA Architects, located in Eng Kong Garden, Singapore. The 3,842 square foot (357 square meters) residence features a timber-clad facade that greets the visitor to this private semi-detached house.
The house is nestled on a site area of about 300 square meters, which opens upon to the side garden with its timber deck and lap pool. The staircase opens up in the middle of the house and an elliptical skylight brings in light to this space.
The staircase splits the house in two volumes; the front houses the Living, Dining, Family Room, Bedroom and Lounge, while the back houses the Dry and Wet kitchen, Study, Bedrooms, Master Bedroom.
