Mountain-top Hideaway — Pai Tau Village, Shatin

Hidden above Shatin, at the very edge of Pai Tau Village, lies a 2,400 sq. ft., two-storey stone house — once abandoned since the 1950s, now slowly reborn.

Reached only by a 20-minute mountain walk from Shatin KCR or from Greenwood Terrace, it stands as the highest home in the village, surrounded by forest and spring water.

You’ll wake to birds and monkeys, fall asleep to crickets and temple gongs, and breathe air touched with incense and mountain mist.

It’s livable now, though still a work in progress — perfect for someone who wants a retreat, artist’s studio, or off-grid home within easy reach of the city.

Not for everyone — but for the right person, keen to plant their feet on terra firma, away from the concrete jungle,  amongst payapaya and avocado trees, pineapple and chilli plants,  it’s an extraordinary sanctuary.
