現代經典微型別墅Pied a Terre
像The Plaza Private Residence那種世紀豪宅，集傳統、現代、隆重、親切於一身。單位可望到Fifth Avenue、Central Park和流水行雲的內園。這種比酒店房大少許，現代Pied a Terre別墅，適合一人搬出來住。
The Plaza Private Residence的玻璃和大理石，營造一種沉靜的雅緻，一種靈慧美麗，像一個現代伊甸園。綠葉篩碎陽光，望到窗外的狡詐、浮華。望到窗外天高地迴，敏銳和寂寥。
這種現代經典微型別墅，最低消費一百萬美金，和九龍站的天璽、凱旋門細單位差不多。然而，因為Pied a Terre別墅要求的空間不多，即使是一個小單位也可以改裝而成，很多第四代香港人也可以享用。
在鄉郊的六房甚至八房大宅，對大都會Glass Jungle的單身貴族或二人伴侶，確是十分吸引，但實際作用可能未必很大。大宅，一定要有傭人清潔，最好有司機接送，否則工作一整天之後還要去剪草、洗地、洗刷泳池、全屋吸塵、真是thanks but no thanks。Cleaning the house is the last thing you want to do after a long & stressful day.
住於市區繁華正中心的Pied a Terre別墅，可能更附合工作需要。地方少，交通方便，令到你要擔心的maintenance不多，你有多點時間閱讀、交際、休息、Spa、Shop、參與運動和藝術。
香港的Four Seasons Hotel、新加坡的The Fullerton Hotel，都是極佳的現代Pied a Terre別墅。但四千多元一晚，很多人都覺吃不消。月租的Shama、Frasers Suites、四季滙、港景滙等serviced apartments，都也不便宜，平均二至四萬多一個月。最近留意到數間很優雅的裝修及室內用品公司，做出的部分作品，竟比很多三四五星級酒店更奢華瑰麗，而且部分更是由公屋居屋改裝成為Pied a Terre別墅，設計及execution都很完美。它會不會是你小房變別墅的魔術師？

I love living in a house,partly due to the bad experience I had back in the condo days.After paying a high price buying a condo,there is still monthly fees and loads of rules restricting what you can and can't have in the patio,etc.At the same time there's not enough rules about annoying neighbors.The cat lady that lived above us,has 3 cats meowing randomly,like to crank her audio,and move furniture half way through the night.
WTF!? That's very rude of your neighbor. I thought people are a little bit more considerate in your part of the world?
And I agree that there are lots of hidden recurring fees involved in buying a condo. That's one of the reasons why I passed on some high profile properties in HK.
Buying properties in HK these days are just plain rip-off's. You paid for a lot of real estate that you cannot put furnitures in (70% efficiency is considered unacceptable in the 80's, OK in the late 90's, the norm in the early millenium and a blessing in 2010).
I quite like the idea of small flats (Pied a Terre) that could be used as holiday homes in big cities. That's if and when I make so much....haha
Agree - many of the new developments are overrated. The most ridiculous ones are those that have low efficiency rate AND ugly finishings.
