This house is to the south of #11 house in the SE corner of the island.
When you walk from #11 house you may first find it some steps down the hill.

This house was built in the 20th century when Cheung Chau was found to have desirable qualities similar to The Peak for holiday villas.
It looks to have been built with reinforced concrete and rendered brick. Most of the other houses were built of granite. Another unusual feature is that on the east side the external walls are covered with mosaic tiles.
The house has a flat reinforced concrete roof, which may have been designed for water collection, and a verandah at the front, which is south-facing, with views out to the islands in the south. There is an iron ladder giving access to the roof.
Unusually the verandah has slim reinforced concrete pillars rather than more solid stone pillars. It has metal window and door frames.
Domestics' accommodation was at the rear.
