Ideo Sukhumvit 93 sits on an over 8-rai land plot that’s formally occupied as Bang Chak fresh market. As the market trend shifted with higher residential demands, Ananda came to acquire this piece of land to develop another project with proximity to a public transit. Ideo Sukhumvit 93 stands 38-storey tall and is divided into three zones with different building height and unit type each. Zone A will comprise 2-bedroom and Studio units and has its own elevator hall with 4 passenger elevators and 1 service elevator. Zone B and C which have lower heights will comprise mostly 1-bedroom units and share the elevator hall together. As a matter of fact, Zone C is already sold out at the time of writing. In architectural design, the project differs from the previous IDEOs with the Skywalk that connect between buildings from 5th to 17th floor. On the ground floor, you would still find the 24-hour convenient store MaxValu, but the new retail that new-gens will surely love is the Starbucks.

Bang Chak
BTS Skytrain, the vein of city’s developments
Bang Chak is possibly the least explored area among other BTS stations on Sukhumvit Road. Being in-between the prosperous Thonglor-Ekkamai and booming Bangna District, Bang Chak is currently just a passage where you could hardly find astonished developments or any landmarks. Nevertheless, the existing BTS station (Bang Chak Station) is a necessary component for the future growth. In fact, most department stores and community malls in Bangkok are built with a proximity to a public transit. To explain, when land plots in other areas are running into shortage, developers would definitely shift their aims to Bang Chak.
Location
Bang Chak BTS Station (pic via Google Maps)
Ideo Sukhumvit 93 is located right by Sukhumvit Road, around 15-metre walk from BTS Bang Chak. As the traffic on Sukhumvit is normally jammed, you could take expressways and exit on Sukhumvit 62 which is a few hundred metres from the project. If you are driving someone to the project, you could also drop him/her on the opposite side as there’s a footbridge to cross conveniently

The place is decorated in antique style with old-fashioned furnishings and ripped concrete wall, creating a nostalgia of Thai coffee shops in the past yet still look stylish to suit the modern-day trend. The recommended menu is Vietnamese Egg Coffee, an aromatic coffee brewed with yolk.

It’s a well-known practice among investors to reserve units early and resell the bookings to others with higher price before the ownership transfer date. This could explain why 1-bedroom units in Building C are sold out shortly as they have the lowest investment cost. The speculation also contains risk as if you cannot sell the bookings before the ownership transfer date, you would be obliged to purchase the unit with full price, which is not a small amount of money. On the other hands, renting a unit out is a typical long-term investment here. The average rent price per month is between 15,000-20,000 baht; however, the range is likely to surge through time due to growing residential demands in Outer Sukhumvit.

With the attractive starting price and location next to a public transit, there’s no doubt why residential units are promptly sold out in Building C; some purchased for short-term speculations while other aim for long-term rent returns. In the aspect of quality, the project boasts the facility area with multi-sport courtyard, double-volume glass-wall fitness, rooftop garden, two swimming pools, and some more which give a feeling of clubhouse. Moreover, there will be Starbucks operating in the 2-storey building in front, besides the 24-hour MaxValu. The surroundings might be lack of lifestyle amenities to explore at the moment, but it offsets with traditional street foods that you might love to try. However, this doesn’t mean Bang Chak will stay traditional for the rest of time, there’s strong potential for the area to embrace new developments, with BTS Bang Chak being an important backbone to attract demands.
