dCondo Mine is a ready-to-move condo sited on Phra Phuket Kaew rd in the area that is becoming the newest business district of Phuket in just a few years ahead. The theme design “Mine” was originally drawn from the facts that miner was the provincial occupation of Phuket most common in the old times.
Under Mine concept, the condo features the steam together with the pool depicting the setting by which primitive locals of Phuket once winnowed minerals from the grains as the early-staged method.
This condo is considered low rise with 8 storeys each building. The facilities including the swimming pool and fitness centre are all located on the centre of the project area and meticulously designed to the level of those featured by luxurious hotel as they are the face of the condo. While all units can be customized as desired, they might not look anything like the exteriors the moment they’re right off the shelf. But it is as good as fit for the price of 1 or a few million baht.
Breathtaking pool and club house

Double Volume lobby has a great height that makes itself feel more open and larger in size when it’s actually a room within a low-rise building.
Project Layout
Consisting of 2 buildings A and B, where A lies up on the front and B sits on the back. A has a shape of L with the north-facing units offering the best vantage point overlooking the pool and receiving the most airflows, while the east-oriented units in direct sunlight. For B building, both west and east sides face in direct sunlight as well, but while the east-sided units enable the pool view to see out of the window, the west face has the whole view blocked out by the building. Though the units on the west were offered for the lowest price among all which makes them a good choice to rent out and expect a desirable rental yield.
Room Layout
The layouts available consists of studio and 2 bedrooms in all. The studio is about 29 sq.m. in size but has a good spatial proportion in which every rooms are properly segmented and partitioned from one another without looking too cramped as a whole. It’s sometimes interchangeably understood as 1 bedroom.
