Built decades ago as a residential paradise for the affluent in Hong Kong, The Sea Ranch now appears to be only a faded version of its glorious past. The secluded and partially abandoned property was thrust back into the spotlight in early May 2024, when a suspected burglar was found seriously hurt on the estate’s private pier. The man later died from his injuries. Residents have also complained about the use of some buildings on the estate as dormitories for labourers brought into the city to work on a nearby megaproject.
