Fuss-Free Living

IF YOU'VE WATCHED Tidying Up With Marie Kondo Netflix, you would know how the tidying-up guru goes to a home, and declares, "I love mess" before advising its residents how to clear out their years of stuff.

That's definitely not a line she would utter at this semidetached home in Bukit Timah. In fact, she might well beam with pride that there is nary an item out of place.

The homeowner - a housewife who lives with her husband and their four kids, says that the family has always been neat, even before hashtags #konmarie and #sparkjoy started trending.
