Staff reporter Orion Land's Ansaldo in Shouson Hill has opened a show home to tempt buyers with ultra-deep wallets. The luxurious development in the exclusive neighborhood comprises three modern detached houses which take their names - The Muse, The Calliope and The Erato - from Greek mythology. The show home is The Erato, which has been designed in a graceful and magnificent style, inspired by nature.

Aquatic themes abound, from the art to the furnishings to colors of the walls, to evoke emotions and imagery of the sea. The three-bedroom home has an area of 4,472 square feet in addition to a 2,203-sq-ft garden, a 1,172-sq-ft parking space, an 877-sq-ft roof deck, and a 115-sq-ft stair hood. On one side of the hall lies a massive white sofa with white and turquoise cushions that comfortably seats four and is juxtaposed with two turquoise chairs with white cushions.

A round coffee table in white and gold is positioned between the sofa and chairs, and a patterned carpet in matching colors adds a touch of warmth to the marbled floor. To the other side of the hall is a dining table with 10 white chairs, with a huge chandelier above the table adding a touch of class. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors lead onto a beautifully manicured garden with a swimming pool and sun loungers on one side, and on the other, a white table with eight chairs and a barbecue area beside it for the owner to entertain guests outdoors.

The spacious fitted kitchen is separated from the dining area, and also ha.
