Analysis

The average rent price for a unit size between 44-50 Sq.m. is at 30,000 baht/month which is considered to be high comparing to the same size unit in other areas. This is because finding a land plot for real estate development is rare; and if there will be any new project in the future, all units will be sold out within a short period of time. With a plus of 3-minute walk from BTS, the prospective residents are students and working people in the proximity.

Summary

Sync Nature @ Siam is a u-shape low-rise condominium situated in Kasem San 3 Alley 3-minute walk away from National Stadium BTS Station. Borne in everyone’s mind, the station is just one stop away from Siam, the forefront hangout place of Bangkok which is a cluster of eateries and renowned shopping centers. Despite the proximity of bustling city, the atmosphere in the alley remains peaceful due to the low density of residences and traffic as the street is a dead end. Residents will sense the feel of urban resort look, which is the concept that permeates through landscape and units. Perhaps fascinated by the idea of “habitat meets high-tech,” dwellers can unwind in the tropical garden on the roof floor and enjoy features that bring convenience such as touchscreen panels to control lighting and air-conditioning. Moreover, trees lover will appreciate floor-to-ceiling laths in the balcony which are used to control the amount of lights and winds for the plants to grow. Due to the rarity of new projects in this district, seventy percent of units have been sold and most of them are bought for a habitation despite a great return to lease out. If you look for a modern retreat near Siam, this place is an ideal especially for students and working people in the vicinity, with the starting price at eight million baht.
