39 Conduit Road is a luxury residential property situated in Conduit Road in western mid-Levels of Hong Kong. It was developed by Henderson Land Development.

Soon after the development was launched in October 2009, the developer claimed to have sold a five-bedroom duplex flat, on the "68th floor" of the 46-story building for HK$439 million (US$57m). The price, equating to US$9,200 per square foot, set the new world record for the most expensive apartment.[3]

There were criticisms of deceptive marketing in which the developers launched the project omitting 42 intermediate floor numbers.[4] The development was once again the subject of controversy when only one sale had been completed within the commonly accepted three-month completion period;[5] and all but four transactions, including the record-setting sale, were later cancelled.
