Winning recipe: Ma On Shan residents enjoy tranquillity of the New Territories, and easy access to Kowloon and Hong Kong Island
Residential neighbourhood provides a pleasant living environment for people and families looking for a better quality of life
Ma On Shan offers rural tranquillity and good views, and is ideally located for those who also want close access to the city.
The area has a comprehensive mix of housing, from low-density residences to high-rise towers.
Originally an extension of Sha Tin, the district, located at the west face of the twin peaks of Ma On Shan and along the eastern coast of Tolo Harbour, has grown in the past three decades to become a sought-after residential area today.
A continuous supply of new residential projects, coupled with major infrastructure improvements, have given an impetus to the area’s growth. The latest residential sales include Henderson Land Development’s Double Cove Summit in Lok Wo Sha and Wang On Properties’ The Met. Blossom in Ma Kam Street.
Nick Tang, executive director of Wang On, says more than 98 per cent of the 640 flats in The Met. Blossom have been sold within two weeks of the launch, reflecting strong buyer interest.
“The selling prices are pitched at near market rates, so a number of singles, young couples and investors have come forward to purchase,” he says. “About 60 per cent of buyers are end-users and 40 per cent investors.”
