The Woodland Phase 5A, Le Paradis, in Zhongshan appeals to Hong Kong buyers 中山奕翠園第 5A 期紫巒深受香港買家愛戴 The units in The Woodland's Phase 5A, Le Paradis, enjoy a view of the lush greenery in neighbouring Zimaling Park 奕翠園第 5A 期紫巒毗鄰紫馬嶺公園，可享開揚翠綠景致 The Woodland, the Group’s signature residential development in Zhongshan city, is a multi-phase project which spans over five million square feet of gross floor area. The project’s Phase 5A, Le Paradis, has attracted many Hong Kong buyers, driven by the 16 policy measures for the Greater Bay Area promulgated by the Central Government in last November, which will benefit Hong Kong people. Almost 400 Le Paradis residential units, or about 85% of the released residential units, were sold by 22 March. Lush green view of neighbouring Zimaling Park Phases 1, 2, 3, 4A, 4B and 4C of The Woodland have all been completed. The Phase 4A villas won the 2011 World Association of Chinese Architects Design Award, setting a new benchmark for luxury residences in town. The latest Phase 5A, Le Paradis, will provide six blocks of residential towers and about a 300-metre-long block of street-front shops. The 464 residential units will range from 1,130 to 2,561 square feet with practical designs and various layouts, featuring three- to five-bedroom options to suit the needs of different families. All units will include a big balcony offering wide views and more natural light and ventilation. Some residential units will have indoor gardens for a sophisticated look. Residents with south-facing units will even enjoy the approximately 90 hectares of lush greenery in neighbouring Zimaling Park. The landscape design at Le Paradis was inspired by the wineries in suburban France. The main entrance to the development, the piazza and community square were all designed with reference to the iconic landmarks in France. The waterscapes, greenery and plenty of sunshine add to the strong French style romance. The Woodland’s private residents’ clubhouse is divided into five zones – a gym, banquet rooms, a French wine-tasting area, a children’s entertainment area and a leisure area – along with a variety of other facilities. Prime location in the city centre with a full range of facilities Situated in a prime location in the heart of Zhongshan city, The Woodland has been built phase by phase for over a decade in a well- developed community. The neighbourhood provides a wide range of facilities offering daily necessities and services, including major shopping malls, restaurants, starred hotels, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Library and famous primary and secondary schools. Zhongshan is a key location with excellent transport connections, including strategic routes, railways and a port. The cross-border bridge in Zhuhai serves as an alternative for Zhongshan to link up with major cities in the Greater Bay Area. The Woodland is only about a 20-minute drive to Zhongshan North Railway Station and Zhongshan Railway Station. It takes about 30 minutes by rail to reach the High Speed Rail Guangzhou South Station, which connects to Hong Kong West Kowloon Station in about 60 minutes. Zhongshan is also only about two and a half hours from Hong Kong’s urban districts by cross-border bus via the Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macao Bridge. Alternatively, residents can take the ferry from Zhongshan Port to the China Hong Kong Ferry Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, which takes about 90 minutes.
