HDB to launch 3Gen flats this September

Singapore Business Review

Check out its layout here.

According to Minister of National Development Khaw Boon Wan, the HDB will offer a new flat type--the 3Gen Flat--in the September BTO exercise.

It will come with four bedrooms: two are main bedrooms with attached bathrooms, and the layout is sensitive to the needs of two families living under one roof. The living and dining areas are well-placed to facilitate interaction, whilst providing the necessary privacy to both the elderly and younger couples.

The flats are also elderly-friendly, and will allow easy wheelchair movements, should the need arise.

These 3Gen flats will be introduced at Saraca Breeze @ Yishun, close to Khatib MRT Station. Within this new precinct, there will be an eating house, a minimart, four shops and a childcare centre.

The 3Gen flat will provide an additional option for multi-generation families who want to live together for mutual care and support.
