Location
Ratchadaphisek – Huay Khwang
Ratchadaphisek Road with timeless city life
Ratchadaphisek Road is a thoroughfare between Rama IX Road and Lat Phrao Road, where you could find numerous urban-life developments including high-rise condominiums, hotels, department stores, restaurants, and entertainments. A significant transformation gradually took place with the arrival of MRT public transit, the subway which links cosmopolitans all the way to Chatuchak Park and Rama IV Road; however, it is just one of the routes that urbanites take on a daily basis. On the ground, Ratchadaphisek Road is connected with Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, Sukhumvit Road, Kaset Nawamin Road, and Ram Intra Road in a further circumference. All of these compositions are complementing this enclave to be the new CBD.

Location
Amaranta Residence is located in Pracha Rat Bamphen 5 Alley, around 150-metre walk from MRT Huay Khwang that sit right on Ratchadaphisek Road.

Summary
To find a condominium in MRT Huay Khwang’s boundary is easy as a glimpse of your eyes, but to find the one that features a hotel-service, premium luxury furnishings, and close distance to the public transit, is surely difficult. If you look to reside, the project is fitting regarding its serenity-offered location which is quite distant from the main road, along with hotel-service and facilities to smooth your living experience. If you look for investment, Ratchada – Ladprao projects’ sale rate is up to 86 percent, meaning the residential demand is high. An appealing attribute at Amaranta Residence is, also, the Home Automation where you can control the appliances and air-conditioning from a remote distance. In sum, we could describe Amaranta Residence as rare and futuristic.
