Discovery Bay Phase 19 Toscana (Yi Tao), jointly developed by HKR International and CITIC Pacific Properties, is set to occupy by Q3-Q4 2026. The first sub-phase 19-1 offers 320 units ranging from 1-bedroom to 4-bedroom special units, set within a 65,000 sq ft Italian-themed estate featuring a 160,000 sq ft central park designed by Adrian L. Norman. For owners planning their Discovery Bay Phase 19 Toscana renovation budget, ACDesign (Art Creation Interior Design) recommends a tiered approach: basic packages run HK$1,100-1,300 per sq ft (covering paint, laminate flooring, basic built-ins and Japanese-brand appliances), mid-tier packages at HK$1,700-2,000 per sq ft (with microcement walls, quartz counters and Bosch/Siemens built-in appliances), while premium packages exceed HK$2,500 per sq ft and include Italian marble, smart-home KNX systems and Miele/Gaggenau appliance suites. A typical 700 sq ft 2-bedroom renovation lands between HK$770,000 and HK$2.1 million depending on tier. Owners should budget an additional 8-15% for Discovery Bay-specific logistics (ferry/restricted-vehicle transport, longer lead times). ACDesign advises a 5-stage payment schedule (10/25/25/30/10) rather than the traditional 3-stage to protect cash flow. Common pitfalls include vague “site-condition” clauses, unlisted appliance allowances, and undisclosed wall-skim preparation costs on raw concrete units. Request a fully itemised quotation before signing — and reserve at least 8% as a warranty leverage.
