The
green pod bed house dates probably from the 1960’s or
1970’s and had all the trappings of that era on show.
Mirrored mosaic glass walls, foam padded banisters, terrazzo
flooring and of course the green pod bed up in the bedroom.
This had been a
pretty exclusive house and property. It sat on a hill and
overlooked the straits of Johor with views across towards
Singapore. Back in the day the same hill played host to
several grand colonial bungalows. Neabry, one bungalow in
particular, now demolished, became an infamous nightclub
during the 60's, so this house definitely had some interesting
neighbours back in the day..
The green pod bed house was finally demolition in around
2013, much to the relief of its immediate neighbours who
lived in fear of the drug addicts and thieves that frequented
it on a regular basis.
