What exactly does it mean to live in luxury? Perhaps it’s that multimillion-dollar penthouse that towers above the city, the most stylish design-led living space, or maybe even an expansive home for you and your family. Whatever your style of luxury, Hong Kong has it all -- and then some. But before you call your realtor, here’s a little inspiration to take with you. Welcome to our biweekly property digest that brings together the city’s best properties on the market, all for your easy viewing.

Asking Price: HK$228 million

This detached house in Fo Tan would make an incredible home for families who enjoy their privacy. Standing on a higher ground that overlooks the other low-rises and houses below, it's a home with a more serene view thanks to its huge private garden, roof terrace and a private balcony in the master bedroom. High ceilings and glass doors help to create a naturally bright and airy space, of which it has plenty in the living, dining and kitchen spaces, too.

Asking Price: HK$57 million

Surrounded by the lush greenery of Tai Tam Country Park, this two-bedroom property is great for smaller families who enjoy natural views and an active lifestyle. Not only is there convenient access to walking trails through the rolling mountains, but the comprehensive facilities also allow residents to enjoy a gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna, squash, tennis and more. The interiors have had a modern makeover and remain elegantly designed with natural wood and neutral furnishings for easy move-in.

Tai Po Home with Views of the Mountains and Sea

[gallery size="full" ids="164398,164399,164400"]

Asking Price: HK$35 million

In the middle of Tai Po suburbia sits this modern European-style luxury townhouse. Here, large windows bestow the panoramic gift of tranquil sea and green mountain views upon residents, while a rooftop space means alfresco dinners and barbecue parties are on the cards. With four bedrooms, larger families can make full use of the spacious interiors as well as the extensive clubhouse facilities that include a children's playground and pool, gym, jacuzzi, outdoor swimming pool, sauna, snooker, tennis and a handy golf simulator. What more could you ask for?

What: 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 car park spaces; 2,324 sq. ft.

Asking Price: HK$78 million

Located near a walking trail that leads up to the Peak, this three-bedroom flat takes advantage of the natural environment and enjoys some epic green views that stretch to the harbour. Decorated in oriental-style furnishings, statues and wooden fixtures, the interior is something of an art gallery. But of course, this can all be taken away and in fact the original building's layout of five rooms can easily be reinstated, too. A fantastic location and space for both entertaining and privacy, this property is definitely worth keeping your eye on.

Ting Kau House with a Picture-Perfect Backdrop

This unique detached house is a rare find and is truly a space to call your own if you have a bigger family -- what with five bedrooms, four bathrooms and an abundant amount of outdoor and indoor space. Leave work, the city and really relax in this European-style house that you can call home for a little under HK$200 million.

Located in a quiet corner of Mid-Levels West, this gorgeous penthouse enjoys some of the city's most sensational views of the iconic harbour and cityscape. It comes complete with a swimming pool, jacuzzi tub, walk-in closet, luxurious ensuite bathrooms and more, but the most remarkable feature has to be the incredibly roomy rooftop garden and terrace. Designed for both social and private occasions, homeowners can show off their property by hosting poolside parties or impress with a romantic alfresco dinner.

Asking price: HK$1 billion
This rare find is a stunning and really rather huge house set within the Clear Water Bay area. Away from the hectic city, this is luxury living with all the space and privacy one could ever desire. Plus, as it's so large, it naturally has numerous rooms and elements that you wouldn't usually find in Hong Kong, including its own private garden, landscaped swimming pool, enormous rooftop terrace, extra family room, formal dining room, wine cellar, karaoke room, pet room, walk-in closet and more.

Where: 1-9 Watford Road, The Peak
What: 4 bedrooms (3 ensuite), 2,706 sq. ft.
Asking price: HK$260 million
Although it's the smallest property on our list, this hidden paradise still spans over 2,500 square feet of space, making it 4 times bigger than the average home in Hong Kong. Situated on a tree-lined road with other low-rises, this is one for those who enjoy greenery. It also has a beautiful and well-maintained garden and fishpond that feel like they were pulled out of a storybook. What's more, it all feels very secluded with its wooden fences, railings and iron gate that ensure the utmost privacy.

What: 5 bedrooms (4 ensuite), 4,465 sq. ft.
Asking price: HK$118 million
This exquisite Lantau home gives city-dwelling properties a run for their money. Overlooking uninterrupted views of the sea, it offers buyers a chance to enjoy two floors of space along with a cultivated garden and rooftop terrace. The high ceilings elevate the sense of space even more so, letting in plenty of natural light. And light it seems is the name of the game here, as even the master suite has a windowed wall and an expansive terrace, while other bedrooms have large windows or their own balcony for fresh air.

Spectacular Villa at The Peak

[gallery size="full" ids="160188,160186,160189"]
