Bangkok--30 Oct--CB Richard Ellis
Construction of the Met condominium on Sathorn Road is on schedule despite Thailand’s domestic political problems and the Global Financial Crisis.
“75% of the units have been sold and our buyers want to move in as soon as possible” said Ray Yow director of Pebble Bay (Thailand) Co., Ltd. the developer. “We expect to complete construction by the end of this year and start transferring units to owners from January 2009.
The Met is situated in a sought-after central CBD location on a large freehold site of 11,360 square metres (7 Rai and 40 square wah). The Met’s concept is “tropical high-rise living”, with a stunning modern design that allows cross ventilation and magnificent views over Bangkok’s skyline and the river. The project also provides high exclusivity with each unit enjoying a private lift lobby and a full range of luxury facilities on 3 levels, including a 50-metre swimming pool and sky terrace.
The 66 storey structure of the condominium has been completed. 22 high speed elevators have been installed, and the exterior aluminum cladding is finished.
Ms. Aliwassa Pathnadabutr, the Managing Director at CB Richard Ellis the sole sales agent commented that “The Met has become a new landmark on Bangkok skyline. The design of the 66 storey building is unique and the specifications of units and common area are truly high quality. Although The Met was launched more than two years ago, we continue to have enquiries from both Thai and overseas buyers. From now on, it will be quite hard to find developments in CBD area on such a scale as this.”
The Met offers two-bedroom units of 92 square metres, three-bedroom units of 196 square metres, four-bedroom units of 408 square metres and penthouse units of 546 square metres.
“We are confident in the Thai property market and we are looking to invest here in long term. The market may slow down in the short term but we believe the Thai property market will recover soon.” concluded Mr. Ray Yow.
