Not able to swim in his condominium pool, which is closed because of lockdown in Singapore due to novel coronavirus, a man rented a swimming pool for S$10,000 ($7,040) a month.

The British expat initially wanted to lease the entire S$30 million bungalow in Sentosa Cove, an upscale residential area on an island off Singapore’s south coast. But the monthly rent of S$30,000 was too high, Bloomberg reported quoting Lester Chen, a real estate agent at Singapore Realtors Inc.

Singapore has entered its fourth week of a partial lockdown that has now been extended until June 1 to reduce a surge in coronavirus cases. The lockdown prevents people from venturing out unless essential.&nbsp;

Public facilities such as sports halls and gyms are closed. Similarly, amenities in condos are shut to deter social mixing. Individuals face possible fines, jail terms or suspension of their work permits for non-compliance.&nbsp;

“I spoke to the owner and we agreed to lease out the pool and garden on two conditions. First, it will only be a short-term lease of three months. And if someone else wanted to rent the bungalow in its entirety, we can terminate the agreement,” he said. The two parties signed a deal on Sunday,'' Chen was quoted as saying.&nbsp;
