Private housing estates in Sha Tin District

The following is a non-exhaustive list of private housing estates in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.

Festival City (名城; ming4 sing4) is the largest private housing estate in Tai Wai. It is a HK$20 billion residential-commercial development project by Cheung Kong and MTR Corporation. It is located above the Tai Wai (Station) Maintenance Centre, next to Tai Wai station, which is the interchange station between the East Rail line and the Tuen Ma line of the MTR metro system. The site was formerly occupied by a football court and a public bicycle park. However, the government needed to build the Ma On Shan Line Depot in 2000, forcing the demolition of all of the facilities.

Festival City was built in three phases from 2007 to 2012. It consists of 12 buildings, a 620,000-square-foot (58,000-square-metre) clubhouse and a landscape podium. Phase I was completed in September 2010, Phase II in October 2011, and Phase III in August 2012. The plan was to build twelve 50-storey-high residential towers with a total construction area of 313,955 square metres (3,379,380 sq ft) as well as 25,890 square metres (278,700 sq ft) for the general public's use. It offers 4,264 flats to families, two schools and one community facility. This residential project raised the population of Tai Wai significantly. The controversy of this project is that the 12 towers would create an urban heat island effect and block off the air flow of the area.

Man Lai Court (文禮閣) is a private housing estate in Tai Wai, near the waterfront of Shing Mun River and Tai Wai station, which is the interchange station between the East Rail line and Tuen Ma line of the MTR metro system. Formerly the Tai Wai Staff Quarters of the Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation, it consists of 4 buildings developed in 1990 and 1993 respectively by Cheung Kong Holdings.

The Pavilia Farm (柏傲莊; paak3 ngou6 zong1) is a private housing estate in Tai Wai built in 2024.

City One is the largest private residential estate in Sha Tin District. There are a total of 52 blocks of residential buildings. Each tower is about 30 storeys with units ranging from 389 square feet (36.7 square metres) to an area of 1,018 square feet (94.6 square metres) with different floor plans.

Lucky Plaza consists of 8 high-rise buildings and a shopping centre developed by Chinachem Group in 1983.

Sha Tin Centre comprises 8 high-rise buildings and a shopping arcade, developed by Henderson Land Development in 1981.
