Where will you work more specifically? Along Ting Kok Road? Closer to town? I lived in Taipo for 6 years and initially wanted a village house but was swayed by the clubhouse facilities of a residential development (pool, gym etc). You can probably get a 700+ sq ft apartment with 3 beds for between 20-25k per month depending on the development and it won't have to be a high floor. Some of the nicer, more expat friendly ones include The paramount, paragon, grand palisades. All on the south side of Taipo but an easy walk (<10 mins) or residential bus service link to the TPM train station. From there you can catch trains into BD (<1hr) or buses to the north side along Ting Kok Rd towards Tai Mei Tuk.
