Townhouses on Yuk Sau Road, Happy Valley
Submitted by L.S.Hemshall

Does anyone have any information about these beautiful townhouses on the quiet Yuk Sau Road? Another street parallel to this one has one more townhouse built in a similar era (circa 1920's-30's). I believe these streets once were made up of several of these old houses.

Hi I can't find much on the blue house, which is 17 Yuk Sau Street. The red one has details here: http://gwulo.com/node/21017 Also just down the road is 11 Yuk Sau Street, http://gwulo.com/node/7205. I assume all the buildings were laid out around start of 1930s also see this, on Village Road. they say one of the oldest from 1920s http://gwulo.com/node/21018. It's now half a house.

The house belongs to the estaste of Madam Leung Hung-kee, an Eurasian who died in recent years. I am told the house will turn into a museum about Hong Kong Eurasians
