The Nest Ploenchit

The Nest Ploenchit stands in the Ploenchit-Chidlom district of central Bangkok, an area also known as Sukhumvit Road. The building is on Wireless Road in the Bangkok business district. Shops and daily services are close: Central Embassy is 300 m away, Ploenchit Center and Villa Market (Phloen Chit Center) are 750 m away, and Tops Market (All Season Place) is also 750 m away. Pratunam Market is 1.1 km from the building, Lumpini Park is 1.7 km away, and Siam Paragon is 1.9 km away.

Getting around from this address is simple. BTS Ploenchit is only 400 m from the building, so you can reach the station on foot. The Ratchaprarop Airport Rail Link is 1.8 km away, and the nearest tollway entrance is 500 m away. Terminal 21 is two BTS stations from here. This mix of train access and a nearby tollway entrance lets residents reach central shopping streets and other parts of Bangkok by public transport or by car without long detours.

The Nest Ploenchit was built by The Nest Property and completed in 2012. The project consists of one building with 8 floors. It is a low-rise condominium, which is uncommon in central Bangkok, where tall towers dominate. A smaller building means fewer neighbours per floor and a calmer atmosphere, while the metro station remains a short walk away. The location puts the building in the middle of one of the best-served parts of the city.

The surroundings offer many places to eat and drink. Thai food is 100 m away, Western food and pizza are 200 m away, Japanese food and Starbucks coffee shops are 200 m away, Chinese food is 400 m away, and Korean and halal food are 500 m away. Schools nearby include Mulberry House International School at 1.1 km, Mater Dei School at 1.2 km and R.C. International School at 1.4 km. Hospitals are close too: Bumrungrad International Hospital is 1.2 km away, Police General Hospital 1.5 km, and BNH Hospital 3.5 km.

One apartment is for sale now: a 2-bedroom unit of 65 sq m on the 4th floor. It is sold fully furnished, with a fully equipped kitchen, a full set of electrical appliances, a balcony, and a bathroom with a separate bathtub and shower. The apartment has a city view and faces north toward greenery. The price is THB 8,200,000. Because furniture and appliances are already in place, a buyer can move in without extra purchases or fit-out work.

The apartment is freehold, and the foreign freehold quota is available, which matters for buyers who are not Thai citizens and want to register the purchase in their own name. Another practical point is the price level: the median list price per square metre in The Nest Ploenchit is 30-40% lower than the Pathum Wan median and about in line with the Bangkok median of THB 134,159 per sq m. With BTS Ploenchit 400 m away and restaurants close by, the apartment suits year-round living in the city centre.
