Chapter 387: Single-family House
Chen Gang saw Wang Yuanchao's satisfied expression and said excitedly:
"No trouble, no trouble, Brother Yuan Chao,
Speaking of our Dongshan area, it has a very profound historical heritage.
This Dongshan area began to develop in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. Now, it has many historical buildings and cultural relics, and is an important witness to Guangzhou's modern history.
For example, the site of the Third National Congress of the Communist Party of China is located on Xuguyuan Road in Dongshan, which carries important revolutionary historical significance and value. There are also many Western-style buildings here, such as Kuiyuan, Chunyuan, Jianyuan, etc.
These buildings are unique in style and have high artistic and historical value. They bear the traces of the lives of overseas Chinese, politicians, etc. at that time. Even now, the people living here are not simple people.
This Dongshan area used to be a gathering place for cultural celebrities. In the past, it was a gathering place for cultural and educational bigwigs, revolutionary patriots, etc., and it has a strong cultural atmosphere.
For example, the famous musician Xian Xinghai and the famous violinist Ma Sicong both lived here, but now, these people have basically moved away.
In addition, many foreigners used to live here, so there are many Western-style buildings here, including a large number of small Western-style buildings. Along the line of Guigang, Xinhepu and Meihua Village, a huge group of Western-style villas was formed.
These buildings have different architectural styles, including garden villas and buildings with simple lines. They mostly absorb Western style, have different shapes, and many have columned porches.
The red walls and green tiles, set off by the surrounding green trees, are a unique urban landscape in Guangzhou.
These Western-style buildings are a blend of traditional Lingnan mansions and Western styles.
It has both Chinese architectural elements such as the front yard and backyard, as well as Western features such as red brick exterior walls and Western decorative lines. If it were not for this decade, no one would have bought such a house.
The house we are looking at this time is a western-style villa like this.
Brother Yuan Chao, look at the surroundings of Dongshan, it is full of green trees.
All roads are lined with trees of all kinds.
This is a banyan tree, this is a camphor tree, and this is a coconut tree. The vegetation here is very rich, with lush flowers and plants, and the air is fresh. There is also a Dongshan Lake next to it.
The water of Dongshan Lake is clear and the lakeside is surrounded by green trees. Every night, the residents here like to go out and stroll here. It is a good place for leisure walks, fitness and entertainment.
Moreover, transportation in Dongshan area is very convenient, with many bus routes.
There are hospitals, schools, supply and marketing cooperatives, vegetable markets and other supporting facilities around it. If you live here, life is very convenient.”
As Chen Gang introduced the street, he led everyone to a street with a strong commercial atmosphere and said, "Brother Yuanchao, this is the old commercial street in Dongshan District.
There are post offices, resources, Dongshan Primary School, state-owned restaurants, supply and marketing cooperatives, vegetable markets, various local restaurants jointly operated by the public and private sectors, and a Western restaurant. ”
The villa we are looking at this time is not far across this street, close to Dongshan Lake.
Huang Zhaowu looked at Wang Yuanchao, who was listening and nodding with satisfaction, and said with a smile:
"Yuan Chao, in our Yangcheng, there used to be a saying that the powerful live in Dongshan and the rich live in Xiguan.
So with your status, if you want to buy a house, it would be best to buy one in Dongshan."
Wang Yuanchao didn't like this kind of behavior of showing off his status.
But Wang Yuanchao was not a naive person and would not argue. He nodded and said, "Brother Zhaowu, the environment here is really good.
Whether it is greenery, roads, living conveniences, or the natural environment, I am very satisfied.
If the house is suitable later, I will buy it here.
Brother Zhaowu, thank you so much today.
If it weren’t for you, it would not be so convenient for me to buy a house. "
What was Huang Zhaowu's purpose in helping Wang Yuanchao find a house?
Isn't it just for Wang Yuanchao's favor and friendship? Now that Huang Zhaowu saw that Wang Yuanchao recognized this favor, he smiled with satisfaction and said:
"Hey, we're all brothers living in the same compound, why are you talking about this?
As long as my brother is satisfied, haha, let's go and take a look inside the room."
After the group arrived at the villa prepared by Chen Gang,
Wang Yuanchao was instantly surprised when he discovered that this villa had red walls and red tiles, had a total of three floors, covered a quite large area, and was also a stand-alone villa facing the lake.
The living environment of the entire villa is relatively quiet, the building density around the villa is relatively low, and there is little interference between neighbors.
At the same time, this building is quite old. From the outside, it is full of historical and cultural atmosphere. Walking in the corridors and rooms of the villa, you can seem to feel the atmosphere of life back then.
Moreover, the villa is surrounded by green trees and lush camphor trees are planted on both sides of the street, creating a beautiful natural environment for the villa.
The backyard of the villa is Dongshan Lake. The terrain next to it is slightly undulating, with some small hills, giving the villa a sense of layering with natural landscapes.
The house faces south and has very good lighting and ventilation conditions.
The overall architectural style is a combination of Chinese and Western styles. The exterior has both Western architectural elements, such as columned porches and Roman columns, and incorporates the characteristics of Lingnan architecture, such as the steep slope of the roof, which is conducive to drainage.
Indoor spaces are clearly divided, usually into public and private areas.
Public areas, including the living room and dining room, are located at the front or center of the building, convenient for receiving guests and family gatherings; private areas, such as bedrooms, are located in a quieter location to ensure the homeowner's rest.
The internal staircase is beautifully designed, with wooden stairs and finely carved handrails.
Wang Yuanchao liked the house very much when he saw it, so he asked, "Gangzi, do you know how big this building is?"
After hearing this, Chen Gang immediately replied: "Brother Yuan Chao, this western-style building covers a total area of 1,600 square meters.
The building area of the house is 1000 square meters.
The whole bungalow has a spacious space and 12 rooms.
The first floor has functional areas such as living room, dining room, kitchen, etc., and the living room is larger.
The dining room is adjacent to the kitchen for convenient dining.
The second floor and above are mainly bedrooms, study rooms and other rest and study spaces. The sizes of the bedrooms, except for the master bedrooms on the second and third floors, are about 30 square meters. The master bedrooms on the second and third floors are also equipped with independent dressing rooms or bathrooms, which are very comfortable to live in.
Moreover, the courtyard of this house is not small, with an area of about 600 square meters. The back of the courtyard is connected to Dongshan Lake. The previous owner also built a boat dock in the backyard for his family to enjoy the lake.
Moreover, every room in the house has a large balcony. Now, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Dongshan area from your room. The viewing effect is very good.”
