By Thailand Tatler September 24, 2019 In Partnership With Banyan Tree Residences Riverside Bangkok
Occupying a spectacular five-rai site on a bend in the Chao Phraya River, the 45-storey Banyan Tree Residences Riverside Bangkok is a 133-unit freehold project developed by Nirvana Daii. In addition to its superb location, what makes the project unique is that every unit faces the river. This is an architectural concept not many developers dare to execute, but because Nirvana Daii aims to provide what it calls a “top of life experience” for every resident, a maximum of four units are available on each floor. Unlike other ultra-luxury properties that have a rather sterile and cold vibe, this intimacy helps the Banyan Tree Residences development to create a warm, homely atmosphere.
Luxury residences are mushrooming across the capital but only a handful proffer freehold ownership, let alone the rarity of being situated just 16 metres from the water’s edge—Banyan Tree Residences being the last project to be granted permission to build so close to the river before changes in planning laws made that proximity an impossibility in the future. In fact, this is the perfect secluded city location that blends tranquil surroundings with convenience of access to all of Bangkok’s major downtown areas.
Very much a sanctuary for the soul, the development, which celebrated its official opening last month, is bounded by the lush greenery of one of the city’s oldest quarters. The project was designed by renowned Singaporean firm SCDA Architects, which has captured the carefree ambience of the Chao Phraya’s historic riverside communities by creating spacious homes with lofty ceilings and picture-postcard windows that offer stunning views. These highly desirable homes encompass 48 one-bedroom units ranging from 69.40 – 85.45 sqm; 66 two-bedroom units ranging from 156.40 – 179.20 sqm; 16 three-bedroom units of 243.10 sqm; two four-bedroom units of 419.85 sq m (two units); and the expansive 836.70 sqm penthouse.
Beautifully appointed, the units are served by three secure lift lobbies totalling 6 lifts. These give in turn onto spacious and airy living areas that contain comfortable relaxation and dining facilities and even a private bar. Elsewhere in the building a vast lobby decorated in white marble leads to a sunken seating area where residents can relax and take in life on the Chao Phraya River. This is also where residents can access a private shuttle boat from its own pier.

On the second floor, there is the multi-purpose space with a library, meeting rooms and an elegant common area where gatherings can take place. The third floor is the recreational area and home to a panoramic swimming pool and a children’s swimming pool that look out over the river. Here too is a sauna, kid’s room, fitness centre and spa—in fact, some 59 per cent of the luxury condominium’s total space is reserved as public areas. In addition, the development’s car park can accommodate over 260 vehicles, ensuring fixed parking spaces for every owner. There is even a facility for the safe storing of supercars
Private, luxurious and comfortable thanks to ready-to-live packages by Poliform and offering superb concierge services and the best views in town, Banyan Tree Residences Riverside Bangkok really is a sanctuary for the soul.
