Hau Tak Estate, Public housing complex in Hang Hau, Sai Kung District, Hong Kong.
Hau Tak Estate is a residential complex in Hang Hau with six Harmony I style blocks containing both rental and ownership apartments. The buildings surround landscaped courtyards linked by pathways and dotted with local shops and community facilities.
The development opened in 1993 as the fourth public housing project in Tseung Kwan O. It marked residential expansion into the New Territories during a period of population growth in Hong Kong.
The estate layout incorporates traditional Chinese design principles emphasizing community spaces and shared facilities between residential blocks.
The complex sits roughly 400 meters from Hang Hau MTR station and connects easily to multiple bus routes. An integrated shopping center within the grounds offers dining and everyday services for residents and visitors.
The estate combines two distinct housing models under single management: rental units for lower-income households and ownership apartments for buyers. This mixed approach allows people at different income levels to share the same residential community.
