Location
Similarly to Blue Lagoon and iField Bangna, Blue Lagoon 2 is positioned on the conveniently accessible location from which its residents can travel away in truncated driving distances along Sri Rat expressway, Burabhavithi expressway, Kanchanapisek road, and motorway (Bangna-Trad km 7) toward Suwannaphum airport. In the future there will be a 17.8-km long monorail line to ship passengers beginning from Rama IX Pattanakarn onward making a total of 11 stops in all, at some point of which they can change station to Airport Rail Link and yellow transit line (Ratchada-Lad Plao-Pattakarn). Besides the easy accesses to Blue Lagoon 2, Central Bangna, Mega Bangna, Ikea, Index and Chic Republic are in driving distances from Blue Lagoon 2 and nearby residences. The average home prices for a single home in this area fall between 3MB-8MB.
Suwannaphum is conveniently located approximately 10 minute from the project’s whereabouts. Located on Kanchanpisek road easily accessing Sri Rat Outer Ring expressway in the direction toward Chonburi, Bangna-Trad, Sukhumvit 77, Chaloem Phrakiat Ratchakan Thi 9, Lat Krabang, or further to the east is Blue Lagoon 2, but it’s not alone. There seems to be underlying reasons behind why many homes for sale and restaurants are densely located there even before any single project of Number One Housing even came. At that point this road network much accounted for having destigmatized the berated area set along Kanchanapisek road and constituted a sound reason to pick this open space for developing homes for sale. For the demand happening in that region, many families and owners of small or medium sized businesses were desperately vying for incomparably competitive price, convenient on-road accesses and spacious living area set forth by those homes.
Getting There
Settling on the road which can be taken in several ways, whether to get to Suwannaphum airport or exit onto Rama IX road, Sukhumvit 77, Chaloem Phrakiat Thi 9, or Bangna-Trad road. A driver can also make a U-turn 1.5 metre below the expressway.
Personal Vehicle
Drive 4km along Bangna-Trad road toward Kanchanpisek road, past Tesco Lotus and keep left when entering onto Kanchanpisek road. Stay on the lane approximately 3.7 km to arrive at the entry way to Blue Lagoon 2.
Kanchanapisek road is lined with the expressway and has 2 lanes in opposite directions. Blue Lagoon 2 can be accessed through both ways.
As you approach Blue Lagoon 2, many white signposts of Blue Lagoon 2 can be seen located on the median strips between Kanchanpisek road and the expressway, set few and far in between.
Nearby Amenities
It’s almost impossible to get to chic and rare convenience places without driving a car. They’re too far to reach by foot. In general most of them are out of 2km range from Blue Lagoon 2 at the centre, including Mega Bangna located 2 km away, Central Bangna situated 8km from the project, and all three of Index, Ikea and Chic Republic sited 6 km away. But the residents at Lagoon 2 still gain convenient accesses to street restaurants within walking distances such as Suan Sanan (400m away), View Dee restaurant (500m away), and other fresh grocery stores within the same locality.
Analysis
Blue Lagoon 2 would be perfectly fit for investing in a long term because just to buy one unit of its already costs big cash in one’s savings and takes long payback period. Given a 7-digit-numbered purchase price, the buyer would be advised to follow 5-10 years plan of buying home as the accumulated return after those years is much greater than if the investment be withdrawn before the arrival of new monorail transit. It’s expected that if the monorail is fully established, the land and property values of this region will jump up by 20%. But it’s interesting that even without it they are upwardly mobile on their own accord. More importantly, the rent price based on the nearby condos is Bt 50,000 a month for unit purchased at 7.9MB. Blue Lagoon 2 is extremely favoured by overseas high corporate executives or similar because they’re conveniently located from work.

Summary
Blue Lagoon 2 cradles the inspirable homes which is a good representation of the fashion and lifestyle of contemporary times. Although offered at the price over 7-8 digit number, they’re extremely delighted with privacy orientation and render warmth and comfort to every fabric of the room day in and day out. The only unpleasant about the lack in public transit causing inconvenience, is in no time mitigated by the monorail coming soon in operation a few years ahead. Despite having many domiciles located by Blue Lagoon, the area is surprisingly laid-back and entrancing with least noise one can’t even imagine. Blue Lagoon 2 assured its householders’ lives and well-beings are in great care.
