A HDB unit in Toa Payoh posted a peculiar listing on Carousell, renting out only the top bunk of a room for $600 per month.

The owner of the unit posted a photo of the room, with what appears to be a bunk bed beside another single bed and a table in the middle.
The landlord said that the potential tenant would have to be okay with living with 5 cats in the home, and will be sharing the room with 2 other tenants.
At the time of the “bed” rental listing, there was already one tenant living there, and the description of the Carousell listing stated:
