No two situations (locations) are alike.

Often, it is not good to have a canal especially if the canal is at the back of the house.

What you had described does not seem to be that bad.

For a re-sale home, it is often best (if you can) find out the rationale why the existing owners have sold their apartments.

Often, these are the most common reasons:-

[a] (often) for older flats, elderly may sell after their children had grown up.

[b] upgrading to new flat

[c] financial or marriage problems and related issues

(Try to find out more, if one can).

I can understand, some say that when one opens the main door, one `bangs' against the wall.

In fact, this is considered a common layout not only for housing board (HDB) and even for condominiums. Often, although this is not the best layout, nevertheless, there is no need to place a cross on this wall.

Often the wall can be left bare. Some would prefer instead to place a meaningful calligraphy on this wall or even a scroll of flowers like the fu gui hua / peony flowers etc..

Warmest Regards,
