Project Overview

Location: Wilmonar Avenue, Singapore
Commencement Date: December 2024
Completion Date: August 2025
Project Category: Residential Projects

Scope of Work

The project at Wilmonar Avenue involved extensive upgrading works to an existing landed residence, with a strong focus on safety, accessibility, and long-term liveability. The scope covered internal refurbishment, external upgrading works, accessibility provisions, M&E coordination, carpentry installation, bathroom construction, and landscape interface works. The home was carefully planned to support multi-generational living while maintaining a clean, contemporary residential character.

Key Features and Innovations

  • Barrier-Free Accessibility and External Ramp System
  • A dedicated wheelchair-friendly ramp was constructed at the entrance, complete with stainless steel handrails and slip-resistant finishes. This provides step-free access from the driveway into the home, ensuring safe and independent movement for elderly or mobility-assisted occupants.
  • Safety-Focused Bathroom Design
  • Bathrooms were designed with accessibility in mind, featuring non-slip flooring, wall-mounted grab bars, step-free shower zones, and accessible sanitary fittings. Window placement allows natural ventilation while maintaining privacy.
  • Clean and Durable External Finishes
  • External walls were finished in a neutral, light-toned palette, paired with timber-framed windows and coordinated ledges. The result is a timeless façade that blends well with the surrounding greenery while remaining easy to maintain.
  • Dedicated Air-Conditioning Ledges
  • Purpose-built AC ledges were installed along the side elevation to house condenser units neatly and safely. This improves serviceability, airflow, and keeps external elevations uncluttered.
  • Well-Planned Outdoor Circulation and Service Areas
  • External walkways, service corridors, and paved areas were constructed with proper drainage gradients and durable finishes, ensuring ease of movement and long-term usability.
  • Timber Staircase with Secure Detailing
  • The internal staircase was finished with timber treads and metal balustrades, providing a safe and comfortable vertical connection between levels while maintaining a warm, understated appearance.
  • Bright Interior Spaces with Natural Light
  • Bedrooms and common areas were designed with generous window openings and security grilles, allowing ample daylight and ventilation without compromising safety.
  • Custom Carpentry and Storage
    Built-in wardrobes and storage units were installed using coordinated finishes, ensuring functional storage solutions that integrate seamlessly with the overall interior design.

Challenges and Solutions

  • Integrating Accessibility Without Compromising Design
  • Incorporating ramps, grab bars, and safety features required careful detailing to ensure the home remained visually cohesive. Neutral materials and clean lines were used to integrate these elements discreetly.
  • Managing M&E Systems in a Liveable Layout
  • Air-conditioning, electrical systems, and service points were carefully planned and routed to avoid visual clutter while remaining accessible for maintenance.
  • External Drainage and Level Coordination
  • Given the extensive outdoor paving and ramp construction, precise level control was required to ensure proper water flow. Drainage detailing and slope planning were carefully executed to prevent water accumulation.
