Two additional en suite bedrooms, along with the kitchen and dining area, are also located on the first floor of the house, all of which open to a courtyard and water feature. There is also an en suite bedroom located on the second floor.

The property was developed by an individual owner who was one of the first to purchase a bungalow development site in the North Cove of Sentosa Cove from Sentosa Development Corp. The property has changed hands four times since then, the latest being in September 2016, when it was sold for $28 million ($2,923 psf), according to caveats lodged.
