Compound Featured Description
Compound
The Palace is an exquisitely designed residential complex that opened in 2013. Every detail has been carefully crafted and the management team aims to provide 5-star services. The Palace’s buildings exude a blend of stately elegance and French detailing.
Its apartments come in layouts ranging from two- to three- bedrooms, and residents enjoy a range of services – housekeeping, 24-hour security, guest services, maintenance, taxi hailing, bill payment, pet care, and more. The expansive compound has a dedicated, high-end serviced apartment building (Stanford Residences), and its premium onsite facilities include a fitness center, swimming pool, tennis court, children’s playground, etc.
It’s stylish and high-end, but one of its major selling points is actually its fantastic location. The immediate area features venues such as Pain Chaud (a French-style bakery), Costa Coffee, a supermarket, and so on. It’s also near a number of major sites: Yongkang Road, Middle Huaihai Road, IAPM mall, Xintiandi, Xujiahui, etc.
Neighborhood
The Palace is located in the commercial, fast-paced district of Xuhui. Alongside Huangpu District and Jing’an District, Xuhui District is one of the city’s major affluent urban districts. Known for its history as an academic and religious center, gorgeous tree-lined streets in the Former French Concession area, and an endless array of shopping and dining options, Xuhui has remained as a long-time favorite of expatriates and locals alike.
Once owned by the Xu family, Xuhui’s Xujiahui area (the heart of the district) became engraved in time when one member, Xu Guangqi, rose to become the country’s most prominent Catholic convert and, in cooperation with his foreign counterparts, translated influential texts between Latin and Chinese. Over time, the area became known as a Catholic stronghold and a center of learning, as well as for its ties to the neighboring French Concession. Although much of the area was repurposed for industrial purposes in the mid-1900s, a 1990s development project has revived the area and transformed it into a major commercial area.
Today, Xuhui District is home to a number of key roads and sites, including: part of Huaihai Road, part of the Former French Concession area (shared with Huangpu), Shaanxi Road, Wukang Road, Fuxing Road, Shanghai Stadium (IKEA nearby), Panyu Road and Jiaotong University. It also borders Huangpu Creek, includes the South Shanghai Railway Station and the Inner Ring Elevated Road (an expressway), and provides for easy access to Huangpu, Pudong, Changing, and Minhang. As a central district, the area is well supported by the city’s expansive metro system, and some areas can be even be reached by bike or on foot.
