Now, because information is what drives our readership here at Goody Feed, let’s take a look at this very informative BTO chart on flat size.
That and also because we are funny and entertaining right?
Ranging from the very huge executive flats at 130 SQM to the more modest 36 – 45 SQM for a 2 – room flexi unit, these living spaces spell home for over 80% of Singaporeans.
The starting price range for the latest November 2018 BTO launch range from SGD$101, 000 to SGD$472,000, and consists of a mix of developments from both non-mature and mature estates.
Having established the approximate price-points and sizes for our local public housing, lets now move on to the heart of this article’s matter; the latest flat launch in Hong Kong.
Size doesn’t matter or does it?
According to World of Buzz, the tiniest nano-flat in Hong Kong, known as T-Plus, was unveiled in November 2018.
The smallest of its flats goes for around SGD$494,000 and it’s roughly about 128-
“Square metres right?” interrupted my editor BH, who happens to be doing his best impression of a paparazzi prying into my affairs and article.
“Uhhh, it’s actually 128 square foot or 11.89 square metres.”
“WHAT THE.”
So, the T-Plus’ smallest available flat option at 11.89 SQM (approximately the size of a Hong Kong parking lot) is about 1/3 – 1/4 of the size of a 2-room Flexi BTO unit but comes at roughly about 5 TIMES the price of one one.
And that doesn’t even include grants which push the 2-room Flexi units starting price down to about SGD$21 000 which makes the T-Plus units roughly about 25 TIMES the price.
Visually speaking it’s this:
Now, process your heart out.
Images of the T-Plus unit
What are words and numbers without fitting images and video?
Nada.
In this short 2 minutes-odd video on Chinapress.com.my, the establishing shot literally establishes the whole of the 128 square feet unit.
After a slight pan, the anchor even quips “no more?”
And adds that the entire unit can be crossed in 5 steps.
The anchor, stepping into the toilet then wisecracks “the toilet is rendered complete in 4 tiles.”
Lest you are worried that the unit doesn’t come with a fridge, dining table and storage space, this T-Plus unit’s got you covered with a contraption that wields all of them into one.
Because scarcity drives ingenuity right?
If you are keen, here’s the entire video for you to watch your heart out.
Well, at least it’s better than sleeping in a jungle, no?
