The following is a non-exhaustive list of private housing estates in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.

Festival City (名城) is the largest private housing estate in Tai Wai. It is a HK$20 billion residential-commercial development project by Cheung Kong and MTR Corporation. It is located above the Tai Wai (Station) Maintenance Centre, next to Tai Wai station, which is the interchange station between the East Rail line and the Tuen Ma line of the MTR metro system. The site was formerly occupied by a football court and a public bicycle park. However, the government needed to build the Ma On Shan Line Depot in 2000, forcing the demolition of all of the facilities.

Festival City was built in three phases from 2007 to 2012. It consists of 12 buildings, a 620,000-square-foot (58,000-square-metre) clubhouse and a landscape podium. Phase I was completed in September 2010, Phase II in October 2011, and Phase III in August 2012. The plan was to build twelve 50-storey-high residential towers with a total construction area of 313,955 square metres (3,379,380 sq ft) as well as 25,890 square metres (278,700 sq ft) for the general public's use. It offers 4,264 flats to families, two schools and one community facility. This residential project raised the population of Tai Wai significantly. The controversy of this project is that the 12 towers would create an urban heat island effect and block off the air flow of the area.

Man Lai Court (文禮閣) is a private housing estate in Tai Wai, near the waterfront of Shing Mun River and Tai Wai station, which is the interchange station between the East Rail line and Tuen Ma line of the MTR metro system.

Castello (帝堡城), in Siu Lek Yuen, was developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties and designed by D. Heung & Associates.
