VANA Ratchaphruek-Westville is a new single-detached home project from Asset Five (A5), which has previously impressed buyers with its SOLD OUT success at VANA Residence Rama 9-Srinakarin. This time, it continues its success in a prime residential area on Ratchaphruek Road, particularly in the highly watched area of Central Ratchaphruek. To find out how interesting this location is, keep reading this article.

What Are the Different Zones of Ratchaphruek Like?

Ratchaphruek Road stretches 42 kilometers, covering three provinces: Bangkok, Nonthaburi, and Pathum Thani. Therefore, it’s no surprise that many residential projects use the name 'Ratchaphruek' in their titles. If we categorize the Ratchaphruek area, it can be divided into three main zones:

  • Early Ratchaphruek is close to the CBD in Sathorn, connecting to inner public transport such as the Green and Blue Skytrain lines, intersecting several major roads including Petchkasem Road, Phra Nakhon-Nakhon Pathom Road, Borommaratchachonnani Elevated Road, Suan Phak Road, and the Western Ring Road Expressway. Being near inner Bangkok, land prices are estimated at 40,000-85,000 THB/sq.w., densely populated with luxury single-detached homes with spacious living areas.
  • Central Ratchaphruek is a popular outer urban zone for horizontal living, experiencing significant growth. It connects to Nakhon In Road, Bang Si Mueang Road, Rattanathibet Road, and Chaiyaphruek Road, with access to the Red and Purple Skytrain lines. This area is a rising zone with continuous expansion, reflected in land prices estimated at 50,000-85,000 THB/sq.w., which is even higher than the Early Ratchaphruek zone.
  • Late Ratchaphruek connects Nonthaburi and Pathum Thani, featuring new roads such as Road 245 and Road 346 to accommodate urban expansion. It has various types of residential projects and relatively lower prices, with land prices estimated at 15,000-85,000 THB/sq.w.

Central Ratchaphruek: The Most Interesting Zone Right Now

Considering the growth potential and value for living, Central Ratchaphruek is the most attractive location on Ratchaphruek Road. The house prices here are not as exorbitant as in Early Ratchaphruek, while still being more accessible and closer to the city than Late Ratchaphruek. It is near the Si Rat Expressway and Kanchanaphisek Road, allowing easy access to Sathorn, and close to the Purple and Red Skytrain lines. Additionally, it is the zone with the highest concentration of lifestyle amenities along Ratchaphruek Road, reflecting the popularity of living in this area.

Especially in 2023, a new shopping center will emerge as a major attraction in the area, Central WestVille, a semi-outdoor shopping center focused on families, strategically located in a rapidly expanding residential area, featuring more than 300 stores. It is situated right next to VANA Ratchaphruek-Westville, almost within walking distance.

Central WestVille aims to be the best all-day dining destination in the area, catering to families and pet owners in the Outer Urban Ratchaphruek-Sathorn zone, particularly targeting the upper lifestyle segment with high purchasing power, numbering over 400,000 people. It will feature shops, restaurants, a green park, and outdoor activity spaces, similar to Central EastVille along the Ram Inthra-Ekkamai Expressway.

Similarities Between Central Ratchaphruek and Ekkamai-Ram Inthra Expressway

TERRABKK also views that ‘Ratchaphruek area’ where Central WestVille is located shares some similarities with ‘Ekkamai-Ram Inthra Expressway area’ where Central EastVille is situated for the following reasons:

  • Connection to the City Center: Both locations have roads that directly connect to the city center. Ratchaphruek Road leads straight to the Silom-Sathorn CBD, while the Chalong Rat Expressway connects directly to the end of Sukhumvit (Thonglor-Ekkamai), making it suitable for horizontal living.
  • Located on Major Routes: Ratchaphruek Road and Chalong Rat Expressway (Ekkamai-Ram Inthra Expressway) are both primary roads that serve as key connectors to important locations in other zones.
  • Lifestyle Areas: Both Central Ratchaphruek and the Ekkamai-Ram Inthra Expressway area have a concentration of community malls catering to families living in the area, attracting upper-level residents.

Central Ratchaphruek: A Zone Connecting Business and Employment Areas

As a main road, Ratchaphruek Road has high potential for commuting to work. It is a horizontal living area that allows for convenient travel between home and work within 40 minutes, covering several important employment zones in Bangkok, such as:

  • Don Mueang Zone: Accessible via Ratchaphruek Road, leading to Chaiyaphruek Road and Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, catering to airline personnel.
  • Chaeng Watthana Zone: The business center and employment hub of Nonthaburi, accessible via Rattanathibet Road directly to Ngamwongwan Road or Chaiyaphruek Road to Chaeng Watthana Road, with several important employment sites such as the Chaeng Watthana Government Complex, Impact Muang Thong Thani, and Cosmo Park.
  • Lat Phrao-Jatujak-Ari Zone: Employment center in northern Bangkok, accessible via Nakhon In Road to the canal road, leading to Phahonyothin Road or the Si Rat Expressway.
  • Silom-Sathorn Zone: The CBD of Bangkok, easily accessible via Ratchaphruek Road leading to Krung Thon Buri Road.

Central Ratchaphruek: A Horizontal Living Area Close to Expressways and Public Transport

With its length of over 42 kilometers, Ratchaphruek Road connects to various important road networks, making it very convenient for private car travel. In addition to Ratchaphruek Road and Kanchanaphisek Road leading to the city center, it is also close to the Si Rat Expressway and connects with other major roads such as Chaiyaphruek Road, Nakhon In Road, Rattanathibet Road, and Borommaratchachonnani Elevated Road.

Although Ratchaphruek is primarily focused on private car travel, it is also connected to four public transport lines. The Central Ratchaphruek area can access the Purple Skytrain at two stations: Bang Rak Yai and Bang Rak Noi Tha It, and the Red Line at Talat Phlu Station. It can also connect to the main Skytrain lines in Bangkok, including the BTS Dark Green Line (Silom Line) and MRT Blue Line at Bang Wa Station.

Central Ratchaphruek: A Community Mall Hub for Families

The best reflection of Central Ratchaphruek as a popular residential area can be seen in the lifestyle and shopping malls scattered throughout the zone, primarily catering to families and residents. These include supermarkets, restaurants, cafes, home decor stores, and community malls.

The dense concentration of lifestyle amenities in Central Ratchaphruek makes it the Prime Zone of Lifestyle on Ratchaphruek Road, as it offers the most comprehensive and numerous options compared to other Ratchaphruek zones, including The Crystal SB, SB Ratchaphruek, Central WestGate, Central WestVille, Central Rattanathibet, MAKRO, Lotus’s, and HomePro, totaling over 14 locations.
