Beginning today, the developers extend a warm invitation to potential buyers to explore the new furnished^5,6 residence. This house boasts front garden at its entrance and enjoys exclusive, direct access to the European castle wine cellar-style double-carpark carport⁴ via private lift – an unparalleled and exquisite feature.

 

Ms. Jessica Yip, Director of Office and Residential at Hysan Development Company Limited, said, “Today we unveil a newly furnished^5,6 house at 'VILLA LUCCA'. Located at 29 Villa Avenue, it spans a saleable area of 3,308 sq ft² ,featuring a 730 sq ft garden² and a 539 sq ft² rooftop. Meticulously curated by esteemed furniture brand OVO, every detail reflects a commitment to a high-quality lifestyle that begins at home. Drawing inspiration from the elegant equestrian world, the curated interiors exude a refined and sophisticated ambiance, harmoniously integrating with the captivating natural surroundings¹. The top floor of the house is designed as a private sanctuary for the homeowners, incorporating their cherished equestrian decor into the living space to create a sumptuous aesthetic that exudes understated luxury, contemporary flair, and timeless elegance. Additionally, a dedicated Thai-style massage room⁶ instils a sense of peacefulness into the living space, enabling residents to unwind and rejuvenate. Stepping onto the rooftop, adorned with stylish furnishings in a calming blue palette, residents can immerse themselves in the breathtaking panoramic views of ‘the mountains, the woods and the sea’¹, basking in an atmosphere of tranquillity and serenity.”

 

 

Ms. Violet Lam, General Manager, Business Development & Marketing at HKR International Limited, said, “93 units⁷ at VILLA LUCCA have already been sold or leased. The total transaction value for sales exceeds HK$1.3 billion⁷. The highest sales transaction value for a house reached HK$145.6 million⁷, with the price of HK$27,571⁷ per sq ft of saleable area. The highest sales transaction value for a special unit* was HK$62.25 million⁷, with the price of HK$26,879 per sq ft of saleable area. Since the Government announced the cancellation of all demand-side management measures for residential properties at the end of February, we have received numerous enquiries from potential buyers and witnessed a significant increase in the number of property viewings. During March, the project recorded over 2,000 viewers, including cross-district viewers, businessmen traveling between Mainland China and Hong Kong, talents and professionals from Mainland China, and individuals working in nearby areas. Prospective homebuyers are optimistic about the development of the Northern Metropolis and believe that VILLA LUCCA enjoys the advantages of being situated in the “Twin cities and Three Circles” region. Additionally, there is still a certain market demand for high-quality luxury residences. Therefore, the developers maintain an optimistic outlook on sales and believe VILLA LUCCA will attract more prospective buyers to the market.”

 

 

The OVO design team has crafted an exceptionally unique interior space for 29 Villa Avenue, harmoniously integrating an elegant equestrian theme and artistic elements into every corner. Upon entering the house on the ground floor, homeowners are greeted by a welcoming small garden, where two comfortable woven patio chairs await. This cozy alfresco space invites homeowners to savour a cup of coffee and enjoy a little outdoor reading before work, as they prepare for the day ahead⁵. Inside, to the right, seamlessly connected to the garden, is a spacious and refined kitchen. A suite of 12 home appliances⁵, including a GAGGANAU wine climate cabinet, steam oven, and traditional oven, etc., make it the ultimate family kitchen for cooking and entertaining. To the left are a restroom and laundry facilities, providing utmost convenience for family members to freshen up and maintain cleanliness upon returning home.

 

The living and dining room which extends nearly eight metres, has a distinctive ambience created by a rich bronze, semi-circular patterned wallpaper that spans the entire space. This design element unifies the style of the dining room and significantly enhances the sense of spaciousness. Adorning the walls are three-dimensional decorations with dual circular patterns in shades of brown, white, and black, subtly incorporating equestrian elements into the interior⁵. The dining room’s impressive centrepiece is a round dining table and chairs, with ample room for eight people. The elegant atmosphere is further accentuated by a minimalist crown-shaped gold chandelier⁵. In the living room, a large L-shaped sofa in light grey is complemented by a small coffee table for living room essentials⁵. Additionally, a pair of smoky wood-tone round coffee tables sits in front of the sofa, atop a grey and white patterned rug, adding warmth and style⁵. A white single-seater sofa and footstool are elegantly positioned at the other end of the living room. Adjacent to them, against a distinctive striped feature wall, is a cabinet full of audio-visual collections, with a small bookshelf on top, providing homeowners with a tranquil spot to indulge in music and literature, promoting relaxation of mind and soul⁵. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows allow natural light to pour in from the garden, bringing the serenity of nature indoors, creating a haven of tranquil sophistication.

 

Ascending the stairs to the first floor leads to the bedroom area, which includes an ensuite bedroom, a second bedroom, a study room, a maid's room and a small lounge. The designer has transformed the dressing room into a cozy lounge⁶, furnished with a three-seater descent sofa⁵, providing a space for homeowners and their family to relax and have heartfelt conversations. The ensuite bedroom, characterised by shades of deep grey and brown, features wooden-coloured floors and furniture. A horse painting adorns the wall above the bed, exuding a sense of refined elegance, perfect for the parent homeowners⁵. The daughter's room features a colour scheme of soft pink hues, infusing the space with youthful charm. The study room is minimalist and bright, with a dark brown saddle-shaped desk positioned by the window. A large bookshelf, matching the colour of the desk, stands next to it. Two abstract horse paintings adorn the walls⁵. There is ample space in front of the desk for a round single-seater sofa and a small coffee table to complete the chic reading corner.

 

The second floor is the exclusive domain floor of the homeowners, featuring a master suite spanning over 500 sq ft². The suite is decorated with equestrian motifs and accessories, including a riding crop, stirrups, and bits etc., showcasing the homeowners' profound admiration and affinity for horses⁵. The master bedroom boasts a king bed, with a double-seater sofa and a square coffee table placed at the foot, offering a private space where the homeowners can indulge in their own personal audiovisual experience⁵. Adjacent to the bathroom, there is ample space dedicated to the homeowners' personal dressing room, exuding an elegant and minimalist aesthetic. A sleek saddle-shaped vanity dresser and wardrobe reflect the homeowners' refined taste in fashion. The designer has also intentionally transformed one of the bedrooms into a Thai massage room⁶, allowing the homeowners to unwind and escape the stresses of the day, as they indulge in pure relaxation and rejuvenation. The house features a rooftop furnished with an outdoor dining table, a bar counter, and outdoor sofas, providing a perfect setting for the homeowners to host barbecue gatherings for their family and friends. The basement is equipped with a European castle wine cellar-style double-carpark carport⁴, ensuring a seamless and secure return home even on rainy days.
