Isabella Leong's Housing Woes
Isabella Leong is moving back to Hong Kong and she is making sure her home is really where she wants to be.
Currently residing in San Franciso with her three young sons, the 22-year-old is bent on transforming her luxurious Hong Kong home into a kid's nursery world.
According to Hong Kong reports, Richard Li had bought the land at HKD 120 million (SGD 24 million) back in 1994, and construction of the high-end home made of wood was only completed in 2002.
The home boasts a magnificent sea view and a 37,000 square meters outdoor garden. It was also constructed out of premium raw materials only.
However the Lis are reportedly still not satisfied with the house.
A construction foreman, who had been part of the building project, lamented about Isabella: "The client has such high expectations. For example, the redwood used for the house was already top grade, but she found the patterns on the wood to be ugly and repeatedly requested for changes to be made even after completion."
He added that Isabella had also insisted on a weekly change of water in the swimming pools and fortnightly pest-extermination.
"In actual fact, nobody was even using the swimming pool, and there was also not a single soul for mosquitoes to attack."
Isabella's hubby Richard Li, son of billionaire Li Ka-shing, remained nonchalant about the star's demanding ways.
