See also: previous poll results (351 votes in 2012-2015)
Large amount of votes towards Pinnacle & Duxton, showing that people are voting for best locations and not for architectural styles as this poll is intended. Due to this reason I removed Pinnacle when I remade the poll in 2015.

  1. Ugliest HDB – any 1960s/1970s rental block
    Ugliest Condo – any 1960s/1970s block especially Golden Mile
    Ugliest House – any 1960s or older house
    So is impossible to make difference of ugliness

  2. Highrise apartments, except the standard 4-unit per level point block are considered ugly, messy and noisy.
    Houses built with a staircase (obstacle) indoor is the most impractical for long-term living-in. Imaging climbing the stairs up and down each day of your life.

    1. Are you considering ugly 95% of HDB blocks because have more than 4 units per floor? Then what do you mean with staircase, to make all houses single-storey? Be serious, everywhere in the world is preferred to have bedrooms at upper floor for privacy.

    1. Thanks, I may use them as inspiration for my interior design.
      They are beautiful inside, but does not really suit my poll. I will search their addresses and see if worth to take screenshot and post here.

    Actually, i would think Pinnacle Duxton stands out as the most beautiful HDB flat among all aside its centralised location advantage. Recent 4 bedroom and 5 bedroom transaction price over 900k and $1.02mil clearly spell it out. Resident owners are laughing their way to bank. Good bet!

  4. You really put a lot of effort and thanks a lot for all the valuable information.

    Since you are the expert, could you kindly advise me on should I sell my 4 room Hdb unit in Marine Terrace or shall I just rent it out and wait for SER?

    My agent is encouraging me to sell it now but I somehow felt that I should wait.

    What is your opinion?

    Thanks,
    Juhaina
    Waiting for your reply
