Fabulous properties are available in some of the most desirable locations in Hong Kong, as Will Lui, Head of Property Sales, Hang Lung Properties, reveals  

Strong reputation for developing high-end residences

The guiding philosophy of Hang Lung Properties in luxury residential development is firmly rooted in the motto of We Do It Well. As the Company celebrates its landmark 65th anniversary, this longstanding ethos continues to emphasize the importance of selecting prestigious locations with significant potential for luxury living.

Designs are modern and timeless and offer practicality, with each development meticulously crafted, reflecting a deep respect for the site’s inherent advantages.

For instance, notable projects like Summit and The HarbourSide showcase their commitment to maximizing the visual and experiential benefits of the locations. Summit provides all duplex units with living rooms featuring six-metre ceilings and a butterfly-shaped floor plan that enhances the panoramic views of Victoria Harbour, the cityscape, and the surrounding greenery; while The HarbourSide comprises three towers strategically oriented towards Victoria Harbour, ensuring that all sea-facing residences enjoy breathtaking waterfront vistas.

“We are also committed to sustainability. So, in the choice of material, we use environmentally friendly and eco-friendly material,” says Will Lui, Head of Property Sales, Hang Lung Properties. “Ultimately, Hang Lung Properties presents a collection of luxury residential projects in some of Hong Kong’s most sought-after locations, appealing to luxury homebuyers through our unique design philosophy, craftmanship and integration of international perspectives.”

World-class designers behind prestigious projects

Hang Lung Properties partnered with the esteemed design firm Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) to enhance the residential experience at 23-39 Blue Pool Road project. Located in the high-class neighbourhood of Jardine’s Lookout, this project design features high ceilings, abundant natural light and generous allocation of space. HBA has curated a selection of iconic and high-quality furnishings that enrich the space and its resident’s lifestyle.

Speaking inside 23-39 Blue Pool Road, Lui commented: “We wish to maximise the potential of our building design. For example, this house has a living room with a higher head room and allows for a high chandelier hanging down.”

Balancing secluded living with connectivity to the city’s prime residential districts

One of the natural advantages of 23-39 Blue Pool Road is its location beyond Jardine’s Lookout. A thoughtful blend of privacy and accessibility makes this outstanding development an attractive choice for luxury homebuyers who desire both spacious living and a connection to the dynamic city life just minutes away.

Located at The Peak, Summit is home to prestigious international and local schools which are known for their excellence in holistic and bilingual education. Its proximity to the city’s core offers unparalleled access to prestigious private clubs and leisure establishments, including those in the CBD of Central, seamlessly blending exclusivity and convenience.

Art gallery and green walls

Referring to Blue Pool Road, he added: “And also, in this house, we have a concept of an art gallery. The thoughtfully curated collection of more than 30 art pieces embodies elegance and sophistication that the future owners would be very pleased to show off in front of their friends.” 

There are also various features which enhance the secluded living environment of the Blue Pool Road project and the sublime tranquillity of Jardine’s Lookout. 

“We have a long driveway, just off Blue Pool Road, so when you drive your car and turn left into our private driveway, it is just like you are entering into another world which is very quiet, very tranquil,” said Lui. “And also, we have created our internal view by means of constructing a green wall, which is as long as 200 metres. And that green wall has water features with greenery and serves to integrate with the natural slope on the top, which is actually part of the Jardine’s Lookout.”

HBA also brings a creative and sophisticated approach to another of Hang Lung’s projects – Summit. Their deep understanding of market trends ensures that the development maximizes the location’s advantages, resulting in a high-quality living environment. The expansive interior, highlighted by a grand staircase and a sculptural design, enhances the sense of grandeur, while generous six-metre headroom throughout adds to the elegance.

Recent ultra-luxury project transactions

A duplex unit at Summit has recently sold for $162.28 million, or a price of $69,439 per square foot. This luxury residential skyscraper located at the Peak has been held by the Company for investment for a long time. Hang Lung’s recently fully refurbished Summit is expected to be completed in mid-2025. The project will be retained as investment property for long-term rental.

“I would like to emphasize that for Hang Lung, we do not have an urgency to sell. We just sell properties at the right price to the right buyers,” said Lui. “We have also sold two houses in 2024 in 23 – 39 Blue Pool Road at a transacted price of $230 million and $250 million, respectively,” he added.

Market sentiment resilient

Despite the short-term improvement in the residential property sector, the future direction of Hong Kong’s property market is expected to hinge on several factors, including the pace of interest rate cuts, economic revival of Hong Kong and mainland China, and the scale of housing supply glut and the impact of geopolitical risks.

On the other hand, demand and pricing levels in Hong Kong’s luxury residential property market are expected to remain resilient, due to limited new supply of luxury residential properties and pent-up demand from mainland and overseas buyers arriving through various government initiatives. “We believe the luxury market would be better or outperform in the short to medium term, because of the limited supply,” said Lui.

Hang Lung’s future residential projects

A much-anticipated development at 37 Shouson Hill in Hong Kong Island’s picturesque Southside is set to cement Hang Lung’s reputation as a curator of ultra-luxurious living experiences that combine superior design with prized locations and breathtaking views. In January 2025, the Company completed its acquisition of a land site at 8-12A Wilson Road nestled in the heart of the quiet ultra-high net-worth neighbourhood in Jardine’s Lookout. “The development will consist of several luxury detached houses with extensive gardens overlooking Mid-level East and Central Skyline,” said Lui.
