Though it is situated close to the haphazard Joo Chiat and Geylang, the Telok Kurau estate is a practically neighnbourhood that is compulsively organized. The roads here are perpendicularly or parallelly place to each other that cut across straight to the landed housings, boutique developments and shophouses that flanked Telok Kurau’s streets. Its kind of neatness is not a characteristic of similar older estates, and it is a blessing of this estate to be bestowed with such kind of perfection.
Telok Kurau is nowhere like its neighbour to its west, Joo Chiat. The architecture of the Peranakan ends at its border with Joo Chiat. This means that there will not be cowards coming here for their heritage walks nor crews doing filming here. This area is totally for residential and therefore does not to tolerate the noisy scenes of crowds from the eateries, pubs and bars. The streets here are humble, modest and laid back. East Coast area, which is far from the bustling city, is already feeling like an oasis of tranquility for many. The Telok Kurau area will be feeling even more to that. Many home buyers are being attracted to the estate’s quietness and with every building here being low density and low rise, it will give them a very homely feeling.
