Li Ka-shing's mansion, located at No.79 Deep Water Bay, is a double golden vein, with "Niegao Chenshan" and "Chenshou Mountain" as the "Double Gold Jubao Gold Bureau". There is an old saying: "Double Golden Treasure Bureau is as rich as an enemy", and Li Ka-shing's mansion is at the waist of Jinshan, just like this bureau.
The Li family mansion has lived for 46 years, and its neighbors are either rich or expensive, including the Guo brothers of Sun Hung Kai Properties, Guo Henian, Chairman of Kerry Construction Group, and Chairman of CLP Holdings.
It is reported that the Deep Water Bay Mansion was built in 1957, which was built by Li Ka-shing at a cost of 650,000 yuan as his love nest with his childhood cousin Zhuang Yueming. It is reported that this Li family mansion has always been owned by Li Ka-shing's eldest son, Li Zeju.
From the outside world, the Li family mansion has always been locked, because its guards are extremely strict, so there are almost no reports about the mansion in the Hong Kong media. Over the years, except when Li Ka-shing's eldest son got married, Li's mansion invited the media to visit, and the mansion was never exposed again.
According to a Hong Kong financial reporter, this is the best way to overlook the Li family mansion from high altitude. The reporter described that from the gate to the gate, there is a slope connection, and there is a second door above the slope, which is the main house. The first floor of the main house is a garage and the second and third floors are residential buildings.
Li Ka-shing used to live on the third floor, but since Li Zeju, the eldest son, got married, Li Ka-shing moved from the master room upstairs to the downstairs for the sake of the eldest son's family to live better. No wonder Li Ka-shing mentioned in the media last year: "Many executives live in bigger places than me." It is known that the single floor area of this mansion is about 760 square meters, which is quite luxurious for Hong Kong where the price is so expensive.
However, 46 years later, no matter how luxurious the house is, there will inevitably be problems. In mid-September, 2005, serious water seepage appeared on the roof and wall of the house, and the ceiling on the third floor was moldy and blistered. In order to facilitate indoor maintenance, Li Ka-shing moved out of the mansion with his family and took refuge in Haiyi Hotel Huangpu in his own name.
Because the workers want to fix the hole in the wall, the scene of the house that was covered by green curtains in the past was uncovered: the first floor was full of his granddaughter's sundries and toys, and there was an old refrigerator. In addition to the study, bedroom and living room, there is a giant bar on the second floor where Li Ka-shing lives to receive guests.
Earlier, it was reported that Li Ka-shing had applied to the Buildings Department of the Hong Kong Government to build a four-story residential building on the original site. It is understood that the reconstructed housing area will reach nearly 3,000 square meters. Although the project has not yet started, it is believed that the mansion will become a new landmark on Hong Kong Island after reconstruction.
