3 Properties for Rent in Hung Hom

This district, commonly known by its acronym, TST, is located in Kowloon, directly opposite the central portion of Hong Kong’s famous skyline. It is dominated by commercial & retail buildings, luxury hotels and sites of interest including the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and the Hong Kong Museum of History. TST spreads eastwards towards Hung Hom and is well-connected to Hong Kong’s transport network. The area can be conveniently accessed by the Star Ferry and MTR. Housing: Previously restricted in height due to the presence of Hong Kong’s former Kai Tak Airport, older buildings are largely mid-rises by nature. The area has undergone rapid development over the last decade, leading to the construction of new high-rise blocks such the Masterpiece. Many of these residences have spectacular views of Hong Kong Harbour or Kowloon Park.
