Traditional shop house exterior with pink wooden louvered shutters, arched windows and Corinthian columns in the Little India District of Singapore

---

A beautiful example of late 19th Century Peranakan or Straits Chinese architecture, this classic terraced town house in Singapore's historic Little India District is unique for its arched windows, original wooden louvered shutters and columns. It would have been home at the turn of the 19th Century to a rich local Towkay, or businessman and his family. Lovingly restored, it is a classic example of 19th Century Peranakan architecture.
