Asoke isn’t the residential hotbed that Wireless Road, Thong Lor or even Ari is. There are a few older condominium developments coupled with a handful of newer ones, but that’s about it. However, more Thai homebuilders are launching new Asoke condo developments.
When you think about Asoke, it is easy to see why people would want to live here. It is one of only three locations where the BTS and MRT intersect. This makes travelling around most of the Thai capital a painless process. Additionally, the area is only a couple of stations away from both Silom, Bangkok’s primary CBD, and Rama IX, the city’s new CBD.
Restaurants, nightlife options and shopping surround Asoke. Perhaps the only downside is the traffic. Asoke Junction is one of Thailand’s busiest intersections and anyone who has tried to navigate this area during rush hour knows what a nightmare it is. However, there is no real need to drive with the public transportation connections available.
Want to know more about some of the exciting new Asoke condo developments in the pipeline. Here is a quartet of projects to keep an eye on.
