Taobao Store: PapaHome Hong Kong Launches

Habitat Property, Hong Kong’s award-winning luxury real estate specialist, has unveiled the “Stanley House Project," a highly coveted waterfront development on Stanley Link Road. 

Following over four years of meticulous planning, the pre-approved architectural plans of the three-level complex, set on an iconic waterfront site, offer buyers the rare opportunity to customize and build their own luxurious residential complex.

Overlooking the serene Tai Tam Bay and just minutes from Stanley Main Beach, this prestigious project is the brainchild of Victoria Allan, Founder and Managing Director of Habitat Property, a leading figure in Hong Kong’s luxury property market.

The Stanley House Project embodies Allan’s long-held vision of creating a bespoke, beachfront home in one of Hong Kong’s most sought-after locations. Personally curated and owned by Allan, the project is a collaboration with K.P.D.O., an award-winning Australian architecture studio. 

Elevated above a five-vehicle car park, the property shall offer 3,269 square feet of internal living space, featuring a swimming pool facing the sea, a spacious 2,420-square-foot terrace, and an additional 357-square-foot rooftop terrace, all thoughtfully designed to maximize breathtaking ocean views.

The project comes at a strategic time, as Hong Kong’s luxury property market is poised for growth in 2025, fueled by favorable government policies.

With a guide price of HK$238 million, including a fully paid land premium, and HK$45 million in construction costs estimated by Habitat Property for demolition and new development, this is an exceptional investment opportunity. 

With completion expected within approximately two years, the Stanley House Project in Southside presents a rare chance to own a custom-designed, ultra-luxurious coastal home in one of Hong Kong’s most exclusive locations.
