Ma On Shan vs Tai Po - seek advice



ORIGINAL POST
Posted by fushingbayloo 16 yrs ago
We are looking to exit HK Island to reduce housing costs and are considering NT. Both Ma On Shan and Tai Po were recommended to us as we have daily commutes to Central.


We are currently exploring Tai Po, but have not been to Ma On Shan yet. It seems, per the MTR system map, that MOS is further. Does anyone have thoughts on living in MOS, commuting, differences between MOS and TP?


We are looking at older colonial units, trying to get rent below $18K and have a small family.


Thanks!

Ma On Shan is a new(er) city it would be quite hard to find older colonial style houses there. One development that could be suitable for you with facilities is at Symphony Bay which is priced within your budget. The buses are regular Wu Kai Sha station is only 5 minutes away, but there is also buses from Ma On Shan town centre (only 10 minutes from Symphony Bay) to Central

Have a look at Fairview Park there is a shuttle bus to Central that takes 25 minutes. You can rent a 1300 sqft house with garden for under $18K

hanks 190k. Is Fairview Park in MOShan or Tai Po? I'm going out Friday for a full day viewing of units in both areas and I'd like to ensure this one is included. Thanks.

Hi fushingbayloo,


I have a 1,128 sq.ft apartment in Fotan, Shatin for rent (3 bedroom plus maid room, 2 bathrooms, living room, dining room). High floor, very clean and newly renovated. Asking for 18K, but willing to lowerer for private deal.


The estate is called Royal Ascot, and only 5 minute walk from Fotan KCRC Station. (Much closer to Central than from Ma On Shan or Tai Po.) Click to this link for reference to the estate details.

Click onto www.centamap.com, and type "Royal Ascot" to see the exact location on map. Just across the street from Shatin Race Course.


Please contact my wife Amy at 946 00782 for viewing this Friday if interested.
