Traditional pink shop house exterior with white wooden louvered shutters, windows and Chinese tiles 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 and Corinthian columns and original Chinese tiles. 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 beautiful example of classical Singapore architecture
