- Today I visited 2 pre-war apartments in Tiong Bahru, Singapore. This country is known to be developed and modernized but if you go to Tiong Bahru, you will get to check out some of the oldest housing estates. Su and Ed showed me around their their flats that were made in the 1930s and 40s. These flats may be old, but they have taste and heritage. Wonder how it's like inside? Join me on today's house-tour of 2 pre-war flats.
A big thank you to Su, Matt, Ed and Warren. Huat!

I've lived in Singapore for years and this is my 1st time seeing the inside of these flats lol! Thank you for this insightful video Ghib-san! Thank you to the great viewers and Ojisan community for allowing their flats to be filmed.
I did not think people will still live in a pre-war zone! Surprisingly, people still do... Thanks for the tour Ghib!
08:26 "that shows how popular this area is... and how rich Singaporeans are"... lol Ghib's mood.
I've been wanting to see what's inside these flats for the longest time & didn't get a chance to til now. Thank you!
I love touring houses that I can’t afford.
Didn’t expect it to be so spacious, and the interior has lots of character, thanks for allowing us to have a glimpse .
wow, I like the first house. so cozy and homey. It is definitely worth the money, so much better than staying in a condo.
This is the neighbourhood of my childhood. It is a quaint hippie cafe venue these days, but in the past, there used to be many traditional shops and businesses. There's even an old bomb shelter that was discovered in the recent years!
Thanks for doing this video, please continue to do more features of unique flats in Singapore. Also love the random feature of nekos 😊
Three Cats is a bonus in this video👍
部屋も住人の方も素敵すぎますね。現地の住宅環境はとても興味深かったです。ありがとう
Wow! So beautiful these places! 😍
The most envied and nostalgic area I have always loved to explore. Though I only can see the flats only from the exterior. Thank you Ghib and the owners of these units. ❤
"where did you move from?" "orchard" that's when you know they're *really* high ses
totally man
dior tote bag
Because they couldn't or didn't want to rent further for $6-20k condos monthly or $7.5m to $10m+ apartment
Very nice idea to show the pre-war flats. Thanks Ghib. I hope you will have a flat like this soon :-)
So interesting!! Thanks for the walk about :-)
What do you not like about the neighbourhood?
Angmoh: The Angmohs.
LOL
chae I was so confused at that part hahaha
I used to live in Singapore now Nashville... Tiong Bahru is awesome! Great food and people... would have been there if not for Covid 19 this year....
Thanks for sharing your beautiful house.
This is the most high quality HDB you can find in Singapore. Everything is tiptop. Now, i got no comments.
Walao eh thought is your wife leh XD
haha
Who is she..
Haha i thought so 😂
hahaha
You should check out the Queenstown neighbourhood. That place also have some historical sites!
Beautiful apartment! It’s great that they preserved these properties and kept them so well maintained. Really showcases Singapore’s heritage.
Not all will be preserved. Only a few blks
モデルルームみたいな素敵なおうちばかりで憧れるー♥️
I saw your advertisement on TV today!! 😍
Nice sharing👍🏻 the place looks so cozy.
Tiong Bahru is a high SES place, million dollar properties are common there.

お宅訪問！いいですね☆☆☆
シンガポールのショップハウスの様に、外観は歴史的な建物なのに中は近代的にリノベーションされていて素敵ですね！
昨年、初めて伺った時もあちらこちらで内装工事を見かけました。
チョンバル近くの『NUS Baba House』も素晴らしかったですが
あそこは撮影禁止だったけれど、ぜひ見ていただきたいです。
I always wanted to know what's these houses looked like as it's very unique compared to current HDB concept. Thanks for showing around!👍👍
I m staying in one of the pre war units in TB and its nice to see how others renovate their units cos mine is not done up at all
@@HH_TT88yup but now on sale
Love the friendly guests and Thanks a lot for showing us a view of the “vintage” Tiong Bahru flats. I feel our local tv station could have engage you to do a program on the different HDB flats 😁. You’ve got a new subscriber here cos your videos are comfortable and informative to watch☺️
I saw the thumbnail and thought for one sec that it was your wife Ghib! 😅aiyo!
So good vlog bro 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Tiong bahru curry rice is delicious...oh god..the design on the 2nd flat is great
オシャレで素敵なお宅ですね✨
シンガポールは🐈ちゃん飼ってるお家が多いのかな。。
The cats are so cute!
U r cuteeeeee too
The apt is very nicely renovated and the ceiling looks really high. The only issue with these old flats is wear n tear. The home owners would probably need to spend a lot on pest control (esp ground units) and maybe aircon.
beautiful house, neighbourhood, cats
For 1 million this is quite good.. some condos which are way smaller are more expensive
There is a cost benefit compromise, it is good to stay in Tiong Bahru , art deco prewar apts if you work near the city or cbd or work home, if you dont need a swimming pool, if you dony need a car , no allocated sheltered parking, no green lungs , you are breathing traffic fumes from busy Outram andnTiongnBahru Road, and if you are homebody. Basically, what people pay to use in.condos, you can live without it.
These are old so the lease are only a few decades left.
@@teohyc good point I wonder how many years left
@@Achristian888 Many units were built in 1937 which means they are already 83 years old, with 16 years of lease left.
Teoh Yi Chie I see... so unlikely that they can sell? More likely to rent out...
I went to school in this area in the 90s and always felt attracted to these old flats. Had dreams of owning one. Then I grew up and the area got so gentrified that these flats got priced way out of my budget. 💔
These pre war apartment are really made to last. The walls are super thick , if i am not mistaken , its double brick wall that is 4 times the thickness of normal single brick walls.
The cement used , is also very good quality, made to last 3 human life times.
But the thing is , it can only be built in small quantities only, because it consumes so much quality raw materials,
I would say it is not equitably done because only a small limited population only gets to reap its benefit.
That is why the govt created the HDB , so that 90 % of population gets to live in good quality, safe , clean, and secure housing estates that is the envy of even first world countries , just that they are too shy to admit their admiration.
Third world countries have come to Singapore to learn public housing administration.
I have been to Tiong Bahru , and even the staircases of these S.I.T . built apartments are still in very good condition, there is.hardly any crumbling of the cement , really , really., long lasting,
Even lease expire, govt should preserve these historical treasures, they dont build them like these anymore.
this is not complete true, a relative of mine stays in one of those units along that row as the first owner and has never renovated. The leaking walls and cracks from age are causing a lot of costly problems precisely because of the different variant of materials used. so quality, durability? 3 life times nah...dont overhype it.
Tiong Bahru SIT flats are under conservancy and will be preserved. I agree that older flats are more durable, whereas BTO flats are built uses precast concrete like Lego because HDB needs to build more units within shortest time frame so quality is compromised, that's why there's usually lots of defects even within first 5 years after completion. BTO flats also known to have poor noise isolation, can hear your neighbours noise even when your main door is closed because the precast walls are thin.
The hdb in general has bad design n bad layout though but it serves the purpose
@@sho9214 I would say Hdb designs in the 70s , 80s were basic and served the masses, it was very plain and basic ,
But as the years went by , more features and choices was given to hdb purchasers, options for wall tiles, floor tiles , was proposed, and even penthouse type with generous patios was offered, besides maisonette for the lucky few who had income qualified to buy , very limited stocks of new penthouse type hdb, hdb 4 rooms with balcony options ,
You cant say the givt didnt try hard , right.
Many hdb owners who can afford it sold their bigger hdb flat for a higher premium and upgraded to private condo becos the kids wanted private condo facilities.
And hdb still builts flats for masses and keep adjusting their policies.
Just that cant please everyone
Shenglee Chen yes of course newer ones are better but the issue the price for old ones for rent is still high compared to other countries but quality is lower.
This is one of the drawback for Singapore compared to other countries
everyone in TB has a kitty! lolll
なんか、今浪人中で英語を思うように勉強できてないから、泣けるこの動画😭
Good.
I had to replay to hear the "ah-tars plants" again
AMDK but he angmoh pwn angmoh so thats pretty epic. The best to go to a real local house, the one which hasnt been renovated in a long time. I have been to a few which obviously do not look refurbished.
Only the rich are able to live in these kind of apartment.. even though Singapore is so advanced but the social status ( Low income - middle income). Furthermore in this video she add on “typical of singaporean meal” when the guys mentioned he ate at hawker centre....
To get a house there now u r likely really rich and don't mind the remaining lease to buy it without batting an eye.
This could be a freehold apartment.
I think she probably married an Ang Mo
Are these condos or flats? Am a bit confused!
My grandfather's brother use to own one of them in that area. he was not rich. Flats that are use to be own by normal people are now affordable only by millionaires. having said that, the older houses in singapore are ridiculously spacious.
The price is a bit high, One million SGD and 40 years lease apartments !
Soon you'll have enough cat footage to make a compilation video of Singapore cats.
that fluffy cat!
Any tiong bahru neighbors here remember the duck noodle store right outside the entrance of the market along seng poh road. Anyone know where they shifted to?
@@HH_TT88 ....
Hi Su....so beautiful😍😍😍😍😘😘😘
Su is very beautiful
シンガポールの土地の価格は、高いですね❕
チョンバルは東京の代官山みたいな所でしょうか？
代官山 。。。その通り！代官山、恵比寿、中目黒みたい。シンガポールの面積は東京23区ぐらい、だから土地の価格が高い。
Nice! Seem it is purchased by an expatriate who married a local. It is not common for Singaporeans.
Wah Bo Lui.....come here see this nice home instead....
My neighborhood!
Money enough, pay what you are prepared to pay - willing buyer (satisfaction) , willing seller (windfall).
So many kawaii Neko!
明らかに日本より生活水準高い😲
Pre war apartment must built solid.
The apartment has less than 50 years remaining lease,it is a bad investment.Can buy 2 resale 5room flats in jurong west or marsiling ,woodland or chua chu kang or even 4 freehold terrace houses in JB.
Where's the spiral staircase
シンガポールのお金持ちはneko-chan飼ってるのか(偏見)
2つ目のお宅の猫ちゃんは人見知りしない懐っこい😍
hdbの辺に野良猫が多いので、普通に金かない私たちはhdbに住むと、そっちの猫を飼うかもしれないね(笑)
別にお金持ちさと関係なしだと思います。
what do u not like about this neighborhood ? ''THE ANGMOHS"" LOLOLOL
美人でお金持ちとか、すげぇ！
素敵すぎる！
でも、シンガポールの猫ちゃんすべてが「シンガプーラ（猫種）」ではないことを知ってしまった…😞
apparently it's hard to maintain due to the old age of this flat. $$$$
you mean they’re going to tear down these buildings once the lease is up? aren’t these considered historical sites or am I wrong?
g aby theoretically when the lease is up, the land will return to the government, what they will do to it is secondary. However, the residents will have to move out.
According to the Conservancy Plan, they'll be preserved, which also means there's zero chance of SERS (HDB version of Enbloc) and the lease will decay to zero. Hence, if people were to buy these SIT flats with remaining lease of 40 odd years for a million dollars, then they're technically renting it at about $2K+ a month till the lease ends, which is still cheaper then renting it outright from the rental market at $3K+ a month.
Only blk 55 and above will be preserved
i find that the first unit still feels closed in, lots of narrow walkways. shame for that price, apart from the kitchen, something about it feels like a basement.
the cat is interested in your mic because over it there's a ....... dead cat LMAO
可愛い猫ばっかり😎
Nekochan > Apartment
I think the main thing is the pretty lady and the 2 cats
1st cat be like : "what is this hoo man doing my house? get out now get out now meow~"
2nd cat goes : " what this hooman here for!?" .. later "hooman scratch my neck.. ahh good this hooman knows how to give good scratches"
Cringe sia your comment 🤦♂️
bruhhh these r nicer than bungalows
シンガポールの都市伝説とか、怖い話が知りたいです！
Neko-chan(=^x^=)
Go to 8:15 and play the video loud, and Siri will be activated to search for ‘Sword’ 😁
I think it's quite spacious as compared to our typical HDB.
Singapore is a city-state.
ね↑こちゃん🐈
1million は百万じゃない? 🤔
ですね。字幕が１億ドルになってる、高すぎｗ
1.1 mil, 1 mil sgd =/= not 1.1 oku >.
1億円ですか？

おい、小池! 先見なかった。🙏
The haves and the haves-not.... Perhaps, Gibsan should do a video on the haves-not... So viewers can also understand the haves not in SG. otherwise, your Japanese viewers think SG only have the haves but not the nots.
Ghib's singapore family is the have-not already.
crazy rich asiansssss amirite..haha
Ghib-san is sort of living as us normal people in Singapore. His videos are shot in his typical Chinese family HDB flat so this is just his journey to discover the other side as well.
Ghib himself is living the humble average Singaporean life (i.e 4 room HDB flat without car), I consider myself average even though mine's a resale executive flat in central region.
The girl is pretty the guy is old
Typical gold digger she is
すごい値段ですね。皆さん、どれだけ稼ぎがよろしいのでしょうか。
At 4:42, Su said that they had paid a total of S$1.1 million; however the Japanese subtitles were 1.1億, which should be 1.1百万instead.
日本より安いね
Crazy rich asians
Su so Chio sia
A historical house in one of Singapore's oldest neighborhood but owned by some white foreigner.
Pre war house is 99 year leasehold so only limited years left. Singaporeans are very pragmatic..its not money cause a lot of condos cost more and are much smaller
I must say she is so beautiful
The irony of a japanese visiting a pre war apartment , maybe after he visit it become a after-war apartment
Lmfao but after-war apartments are typical modern days housing tho
I think the subtitle is not quite right? 1億ドル is 100 million dollars; while 1 million dollars is 百万ドル. It is like 100 times out.
Yen to sgd, hello?!
