The affluent Hong Kong enclave known as the Peak is aptly named. Sitting atop Victoria Peak on Hong Kong Island, the historic neighborhood towers above the city. This perched position boon many properties in the area, like this grand, single-family residence with far-reaching, unobstructed views of the iconic city and its coast.
Perched in Cheuk Nang Lookout within the Peak, the hillside home is surrounded by tall trees, though not tall enough to block the incredible vista. The prestigious positioning is matched by a palatial interior where ceiling medallions adorn high-end chandeliers and marble covers floors and walls. The staircase is framed by scrolled and gilded ironwork.
The main living room showcases the home’s European influences with inlaid flooring, stone columns and intricate ceiling paneling, resembling the stately ballrooms of French palaces. In the kitchen, elaborate detailing is replaced by clean lines and sleek cabinetry. A waterfall countertop centers the space.
Covering 4,278 square feet, the villa encompasses six bedrooms and four bathrooms. The primary suite features a spacious walk-in closet, spa-like bathroom and a private veranda. The structure’s tiered design makes for ample additional veranda spaces on each level, each with ornate balusters. Massive walls of moveable glass can be found throughout.
Other outdoor spaces include a swimming pool outlined by blue tile and surrounded by a stone deck. Glass railing allows for views to be taken in while swimming. Privacy is ensured thanks to the property’s premier location of Cheuk Nang Lookout, shared by only two other houses.
