A local man has successfully outbid seventeen desperate families to secure a prime "Integrated Hub" studio located entirely within a station's ventilation shaft.

The property, measuring exactly one square metre, was marketed as having "seamless connectivity" and a permanent supply of recycled tunnel air.

"Wah lau, this one is gold standard location leh," said real estate mogul, Tan Boon Huat.

"Step out of bed only can smell the train brakes already, don't need to walk until leg break under the sun."

The buyer, who spent his life savings on the concrete hole, expressed immense joy at finally being within spitting distance of the gantry.

"Last time I stay 400 metres away, I reach office like I just swim across Johor Strait," he remarked while wiping soot off his face.

"Now I just roll out, tap my Ez-Link, and I'm there—don't care if I got no space to stand, most important is no sun!"
