{Luxury living}
DEVELOPMENT Broadview Villa overlooking Happy Valley is a single residential tower completed in 1995 by Hysan Development. The building is in Broadwood Road, next to other sought-after residential estates such as the Beverly Hill, Broadwood Park and The Broadville.
LAYOUT AND DESIGN There are 43 floors with two apartments on each floor. On the top floor are two 6,000 sq ft penthouses with roof terraces. A typical unit is 3,000 sq ft, practical and roomy. It includes a large combined living and dining room, four bedrooms including master en suite, a good-sized bathroom, a guest powder room in the hallway at the entrance and a maid's room connected to a utility room for storage.
LOCATION AND FACILITIES The generous facilities in the development include two tennis courts, a large swimming pool, a squash court and a gym, as well as gardens and a children's playground. While Happy Valley is famous for its racetrack, developments in the area are an interesting combination and range from new high-rise blocks to older low-rise apartments, houses and serviced apartments. Many of the properties enjoy spectacular views of the city or racecourse. There are also plenty of supermarkets and shops in the Happy Valley area, as well as the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital in Village Road. The French and Japanese International Schools are nearby.
