Horizon New Town - Beihai, China.
We bought an apartment in Beihai, China. At the time we bought it, most apartments and houses were sold as plain concrete - no electrical wiring, no plumbing, no flooring etc - literally, a concrete shell. Situated walking distance from the main railway station (now on the high speed intercity network), this was bought as possibly a retirement home we could share with Shanhong's parents.

In 2016, work started on putting in the plumbing, wiring, tiling floors and plastering walls.

The apartment was finished in 2017 and Shanhong's parents moved in - happily living there until 2023. Here are some pics of the finished apartment.

Like the house, this is also now on the market. Cheap too - just 120,000 GBP. There is NO WAY you could get something this big in such a desirable location for that price in the UK! Click here for the video walkthrough.
