The Pavilia Farm is divided into 3 phases, comprising a total of 7-storey buildings. The project faces north towards Tsuen Nam Road, east towards Che Kung Temple, south towards schools and Hung Mui Kuk Road Playground, and west towards Festival City and Holford Garden. Each building has 47 to 57 floors, with 2 to 12 units per floor, primarily featuring 2 to 3 bedroom units.
Project Background
Previously the site of Tai Wai Depot and Joyful Town, the government approved MTR (then known as KCR) to develop the land for residential use in 2000. In 2012, the tender was launched, but due to development cost issues, it was eventually aborted. In 2014, the tender was reopened, and New World Development successfully bid $2.856 billion for the residential portion above Tai Wai Station. MTR obtained the commercial rights for the mall with a land premium of $7.5 billion, totaling a premium of $10.356 billion. The entire site covers an area of approximately 516,000 square feet, with a land price of around $3,832 per square foot.
Estate Landscape
The Pavilia Farm is located at 18 Che Kung Miu Road, Sha Tin. The surrounding area is mainly residential estates and schools, with a relatively open view towards the southwest, offering views of low-density village houses and playgrounds. Other directions offer views of nearby buildings, estate gardens, recreational facilities, and rural landscapes.
Estate Facilities
The Pavilia Farm features a 280,000 square feet clubhouse named "Farm Pavilion" and gardens, divided into three main themes: "Well House," "Farm House," and "Sky House." This includes a 6,500 square feet parent-child organic garden and a 1,900 square feet terraced fish and rice symbiosis garden, allowing residents to experience rural life in the city. Other facilities include swimming pools, gyms, barbecue areas, sky tea rooms, and recreational facilities. The Pavilia Farm provides approximately 800 parking spaces, managed by MTR Corporation.
Community Facilities
The base of The Pavilia Farm houses a shopping mall named "The Wai" covering an area of approximately 650,000 square feet. Opposite the estate, there is Holford Garden, offering restaurants and various shops including fashion, electronics, and daily necessities. Nearby amenities include recreational facilities such as the Hung Mui Kuk Road Playground, basketball courts, and football fields, catering to daily needs. The primary school network is 88, and the secondary school network belongs to Sha Tin District. Popular schools in the area include Immaculate Heart of Mary Schooll, Shatin Government Primary School, and Baptist Lui Ming Choi Secondary School.
Transportation Facilities
The mall at the base of the estate connects to Tai Wai Station, providing access to various parts of Hong Kong via the East Rail Line and Tuen Ma Line. Several bus routes run along Che Kung Miu Road and Mei Tin Road, providing transportation to different areas including Ma On Shan, Tsing Yi, Wong Tai Sin, Mong Kok, Central, and Aberdeen. Tai Wai Station is also a public transportation hub with cross-border direct buses to and from mainland ports.
