@fazli.rahmat: WHY IS THIS HOUSE DOUBLE GATED?! 🤯 Something about this house at 110 Wilkinson Road in Katong caught my attention. Sitting opposite Katong Swimming Complex, this relatively modest old house occupies only a fraction of a huge plot of land reportedly measuring around 16,800 sq ft and strangely, it's double gated too. I tried digging into its history, but there really isn't much about this place online. And somehow, that made me even more curious. If you grew up around Katong or Wilkinson Road and know the story behind this house, I'd genuinely love to hear it. #abandonedplaces #exploresingapore #singaporehistory #abandonedbuildings #hiddengems
In the past ppl build small house n they like big garden

Funfact: I just realised that this exact location was once filmed in the background of this classic malay movie in 1958 titled ‘Satay’ 😱

Every few weeks, grass cutters will enter the compound to trim the grass. Maybe you can wait out for the grass cutters to come and ask their supervisor who engaged them to tend to the grass.

The property can be divided into four more bungalows.
It was once belong to a Hainanese chicken rice boss at Middle road. (Swee Kee chicken rice)
There was a dispute among bros, that left the place unattended, until courts ruling.
As for under Yeos investment, it Cound have bought over.

Perhaps the double gate is to deter trespassing or even illegal parking.

Maybe it did a land survey when there were changes in the vicinity n found out their plot is actually bigger.
Since they have no plan for redevelopment, they just put in a second fence to safeguard it
