The unparallel attractions of Fortune Mansions due to their highly prized features and design, location and scale, are sure to catch the attention of the country's newly emerging magnates.

The project, which is located in the Wenyuhe Villa Area, Shunyi District, Beijing, covers an area of as large as 100 hectares and plans to develop the most luxurious collection of villas in Beijing. All the villas will be built for China's super rich, in other words people who own assets of at least 200 million yuan. The small units will each cover an area of nearly 1,500 square meters with an asking price starting at nearly 20 million yuan, excluding at least 5 million yuan for decoration costs.

With the increase in sales of premium quality villas, Fortune Mansions has taken China's luxury villa market by storm. Wang Zhe, president of Fortune Real Estate Group, which is developing the project, said there are not so many luxury villa projects in China at the moment and his company plans to take the lead in ushering in a new era for top-of-the-range villas.

Fortune Mansions lie in beautiful surroundings to the south of Wenyuhe River. Close to the Capital International Airport, this area is highly prized as there are few other locations like this for luxury villas in Beijing. As a result, the company has decided to turn this plot of land into an estate of top-of-the-range villas.

To attract attention, the company has initiated the concept "Fortune + life + business = Chinese magnates' lifestyle". It spent two years investigating and studying many luxury residential areas at home and abroad, including Long Island in New York, the French Riviera, Pun Shan and Repulse Bay in Hong Kong, with the aim of finding out what kind of lifestyle magnates across the world want.

Dedicated to meeting the needs of successful people, Fortune Mansions has finally adopted a style that harmoniously combines French-style chateaus, formal gardens and interior design.

Market experts predict Fortune Mansions will inevitably have a revolutionary impact on China's luxury housing market and its moves are worth following closely.
