It’s all about the incredible views at IL PICCO. Whether you’re on the rooftop deck, in the living room or even in the bedroom, these stunning two-storey garden houses atop a hill in Discovery Bay offer fantastic vistas1 of this renowned residential community along the northeast coast of Lantau Island.
Lantau remains Hong Kong’s great escape, a hilly and green sanctuary that feels a world away from the city’s crowded urban centres. Discovery Bay – or ‘DB’ – features some of the finest residences in Hong Kong and is just a 25-minute ferry ride from Central, the city’s Central Business District.
Discovery Bay covers about 650 hectares, of which two-thirds is greenery, ensuring this residential oasis has always remained focused on healthy and family-friendly living.
Discovery Bay provides an unmatched low-density international coastal lifestyle
Discovery Bay’s residents are made up of over 50 nationalities. Many commute on the ferries and buses from DB Plaza, which has a shopping centre, banks and a diverse range of international restaurants, while frequently hosting pop-up markets and events.
Popular areas include the scenic waterfront restaurants along D’Deck that reward diners with views of the 400m-long Tai Pak Beach, which is well used by residents and visitors.
The diverse international community is served by Discovery Bay International School3 and Discovery College, which is operated by the English Schools Foundation (ESF), as well as SKH Wei Lun Primary School , which belongs to the Central and Western District’s Secondary School Net.
IL PICCO residents can enjoy designated facilities at Discovery Bay Golf Club with a dedicated membership14
Besides being a fantastic location for hiking, running and biking, Discovery Bay has a huge range of activities and attractions including DB Ice Rink, while Discovery Bay Recreation Club and Club Siena offer their members a variety of sports facilities.
Sailors and boaters can enjoy the new Lantau Yacht Club, Hong Kong’s first purposely-built superyacht marina, while golfers can enjoy the Discovery Bay Golf Club, which is close to IL PICCO and features 27 holes with spectacular sea views from as high as 230m above sea level.
Lantau Yacht Club, a premium private club, provides 148 berths in Discovery Bay
Despite feeling like a world away from Hong Kong’s crowded urban centres, Discovery Bay is easily accessible. Regular ferries connect DB to Central, while buses access the Sunny Bay or Tung Chung MTR stations, as well as Hong Kong International Airport.
In fact, Lantau has recently become the city’s ‘Double Gateway’ as it also provides access to the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge3 linking the city to the Greater Bay Area.
Set on top of a hill overlooking DB’s magnificent coastline1, IL PICCO, the new collection of 21 two-storey houses is located on Discovery Valley Road, which leads straight up from above DB Plaza and on to the reservoir behind IL PICCO and near the Discovery Bay Golf Club.
The living and dining room feature large windows and high ceilings (4.3m floor-to floor height11), with sliding doors leading to the private garden
IL PICCO is among Discovery Bay’s most desirable properties and is a prime attraction for owners seeking security and stunning sea views1 in this green environment, with easy access to schooling, shopping and dining, as well as golf, yachting and many other outdoor activities and attractions.
The houses themselves are focused on space and huge windows on both floors, offering great natural light and fantastic hilltop views, yet are cleverly designed to ensure privacy in this low-density development.
Each unit features 2,023 or 2,171sqft in saleable area of living space, three or four bedrooms, a rooftop living area and a private garden which ranges in size from 1,963 to 4,124sqft. Some houses have a family room, while a swimming pool10 is also available in selected units.
The living room has an open pantry
On the ground floor, the floor-to-floor height is a lofty 4.3m high, doubling the height you’d typically have on a yacht. The large living and dining room is 8.2m wide and features large sliding doors that provide hilltop breezes and lead to the pleasurable outdoor space and private garden.
The living room also includes an enclosed kitchen and an open pantry, so whoever is cooking or helping with dinner also enjoys the great hillside and sea views. The stylish kitchen features integrated appliances from the likes of Sub-Zero and De Dietrich, while luxurious bathroom fittings are by Duravit, hansgrohe and AXOR.
A master bedroom with the views of sea and mountain
Upstairs, the master bedroom connects to the wide flat roof, which presents beautiful natural scenery1 and highlights IL PICCO’s standout location in Discovery Bay, one of Hong Kong’s cleanest and greenest residential communities.
A golf cart comes as a gift to the purchasers of IL PICCO to enjoy fully the European resort lifestyle in Discovery Bay.
