Coney Walk> Link to Forgotten Haw Par Beach Villa

The beach villa consisted of a main building and a service block that occupied 600 square metres and 100 square metres respectively. The main building was built with a central hall and an open veranda that surrounded the house. At one corner, there was a water well, presumably to supply fresh water to the occupants.

The building is structurally unsound and the public is advised not to enter the villa for safety reasons. It is also situated within a mangrove area which is subject to rising tides.
