700 sq. ft. per floor. The property is 1-2 floors (two-storey) plus roof. So total internal area 1,400 sq. ft. (700 x 2) plus roof 700 sq. ft.
This spacious two-storey house has a 26-foot (8-meter) long living room, three bedrooms, two bathrooms (one of which is en suite) and a large and fully equipped kitchen with a fairly large pantry (the pantry is so large that it can be used as a maid's room). Internal stairs lead to a private roof terrace.
Only one other building shares this rare hilltop location, so both floors have unobstructed 180-degree sea views from the front windows and balcony, enjoying spectacular views of Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and Lantau Island. With no buildings to the rear, the rooftop enjoys a high degree of privacy.
Two bedrooms on the first floor (one with an ensuite) open onto a balcony facing the sea, and both have large built-in wardrobes. The bathroom attached to the master bedroom has a bathtub, and the other bathroom has a large shower.
The third bedroom could serve as a home office or guest room. An internal staircase (with more storage space at the top) leads to the rooftop terrace. The roof is paved with traditional Cantonese tiles and offers spectacular views of the sea, islands, Pak Kok Village and the vast woodlands on either side, perfect for outdoor gatherings or private contemplation, or for keen birdwatchers, bird watching.
Living in Pak Kok Village means you have a wide range of outdoor activities on your doorstep: hiking, mountain biking and any water sports, with one beach just a 10-minute walk from the front door and many others a little further away.
It also means you can live in a quiet, rural area with sweeping views while still having quick access to Hong Kong Island. One ferry route runs between Aberdeen, North Point and Yung Shue Wan, which has many independent shops and restaurants, while the other provides frequent and fast ferry services from Yung Shue Wan to Central.
