Why this project is worth a look

A landed city home

The project offers landed housing within an established northern part of Phnom Penh. Buyers can have a private entrance, their own plot, and more separation from neighbours without giving up access to retail and services along Street 598.

Several home formats

Verified market material includes compact link villas, shophouses, twin villas, and large Queen Villas. The choice can therefore follow the intended use: family living, a home office, multi-generational accommodation, or a commercial ground-floor function.

An active resale market

Borey Rith 598 has sale and rental listings across several sizes, and many homes are already occupied. Buyers can inspect real interiors, street conditions, and neighbouring uses, but each property needs its own check because specifications and documents are not standardised.

Street 598 connectivity

Chea Sophara Boulevard links Russey Keo with Tuol Kork and Sen Sok. The useful measure is not an advertised travel time but the exact gate, frontage direction, and route to work, school, or shopping, all of which can be tested during a viewing.

About the project

Borey Rith 598 is a low-rise residential community in northern Phnom Penh. The developer’s current marketing also labels it Borey Rith II. This page uses a deliberately narrow boundary: it covers only the community associated with Chea Sophara Boulevard, commonly called Street 598, in Sangkat Chrang Chamreh 1, Khan Russey Keo. It does not include Borey Rith Luxury Toul Sangke on Street 105. That distinction matters because the short name Borey Rith is used for the developer’s brand as well as for more than one housing area. Buyers should match the project name with “598” or “Borey Rith II”, the exact house number, and the viewing location before treating two listings as the same property.

The developer operates as Borey Rith Co., Ltd. Its official website and an industry-association profile date the company’s activity to 2004. Earlier homes were built around Tuol Sangke, while a historical company profile describes a second construction plan established in 2011. The market generally associates that second wave with Borey Rith II. No single public master plan, total plot count, or universal completion date for the Street 598 community was found. What can be verified is an established, occupied neighbourhood with active rentals and resales, while the developer continues to promote selected new homes and commercial formats. It is therefore more accurate to view Borey Rith 598 as an evolving community with homes delivered at different times, rather than one building with a single handover date.

The practical location advantage is access to the Street 598 / Chea Sophara Boulevard corridor. This road connects Russey Keo with Tuol Kork, Sen Sok, and the capital’s northern commercial zones. Listings for individual houses repeatedly reference Chip Mong 598 Mall, AEON Mall Sen Sok, and Makro as major shopping anchors. Travel time depends on the chosen gate and traffic, so it should be checked from the exact home rather than copied from a general advertisement. For families, the broader point is that this is an established urban area with retail, schools, healthcare, banking, and business activity, while the borey format still provides a private landed home rather than an apartment on the distant fringe.

The housing mix is varied. Verified sources show compact link villas or flat houses, business houses, twin villas, and larger detached Queen Villas. A compact house listing shows four bedrooms and five bathrooms behind a five-metre frontage. A typical twin villa on the current market has four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a house footprint of about 6 by 14 metres, and land of about 8 by 23 metres. Queen Villas are substantially larger: different listings show a house of roughly 9 by 12–13.2 metres, land around 14 by 23–24.5 metres, and five to seven bedrooms. These measurements describe individual properties and should not be treated as a universal official specification for every release inside the community.

As of July 26, 2026, the lowest clear sale anchor found was $269,000 for a twin villa in an agency listing. Larger Queen Villas were offered much higher: the reviewed listings were around $540,000–$550,000, while corner homes with extra land can exceed that level. These figures are neither a developer price list nor a valuation of every house in the project. Asking prices reflect the internal position, plot size, finishing condition, furniture, frontage orientation, legal documents, and the seller’s urgency. Current official social material also advertises a 10% initial payment for selected shophouse offers, but no complete project-wide payment schedule for all home types was publicly available.

Daily life at Borey Rith 598 is based on a private house in a guarded urban community rather than on resort-style amenities. Agency listings support a gated setting, 24-hour security, parking in front of or within the plot, balconies, and larger yards for detached villas. A communal pool, gym, clubhouse, or one large central park was not confirmed in the reviewed material and should not be assumed without a site visit. For households, the practical proposition is clear: a private entrance, several bedrooms, room for a home office or extended family, and access to the commercial services around Street 598. Business-oriented buyers may prefer a shophouse or a home facing one of the busier internal roads.

Due diligence must focus on the specific property, not only the borey name. Some current sale listings state that the individual house has a Hard Title, but that is a claim about the seller’s documentation and not a confirmed rule for every plot. Floor area, room count, and construction year also vary. One agency database dates a newer Queen Villa to 2025, while the wider Borey Rith II phase has a much longer history. A buyer should review the title copy, cadastral plan, registered encumbrances, any management or service charges, the surveyed plot boundaries, transfer obligations, and whether alterations or commercial use are legally permitted.

Borey Rith 598 is best suited to buyers seeking a substantial family house in northern urban Phnom Penh and who are comfortable comparing both newer and resale stock. Its main strength is choice: compact homes, twin villas, detached villas, and commercial shophouses appear within the same market identity. Its weakness is the absence of one public, current master plan, full price list, and standard specification table. Selection should therefore begin with the exact address, house type, plot, and legal file rather than with a generic project photograph. Only after those points are fixed does it make sense to compare condition, renovation cost, access, neighbouring uses, and the convenience of the relevant Street 598 entrance.

A viewing is best completed in two stages. Daylight reveals the facade, drainage, pavements, access roads, and neighbouring construction; an evening visit gives a better picture of street lighting, actual noise, and how commercial units are used. The house itself should be checked for moisture, water pressure, electrical capacity, air-conditioning, roof condition, balconies, and the quality of any recent renovation. In a resale property, furniture and built-in appliances may be included in the asking price, but they do not replace structural and services checks. Ongoing costs also vary by property. No single public management or maintenance tariff for the whole phase was found, so buyers should request written confirmation of regular charges, security, waste collection, internal-road upkeep, and any seller arrears before paying a deposit. A shophouse needs suitable customer parking, road visibility, and permitted business use. A family home needs a different review: traffic outside the frontage, child safety, and bedroom privacy. This comparison separates the value of the wider community from the condition and suitability of the individual offer.

The transaction should move from documents to commercial terms. First confirm the registered owner, title type, surveyed land area, and any restriction on transfer. Only then compare the price, included furniture, vacant-possession date, taxes, and registration costs. Where a bank loan or instalment plan is involved, approval and the schedule must apply to the selected house rather than to a promotion for another product type. A reservation payment is safer when tied to satisfactory legal and technical review. The agreement should list the documents to be delivered, property condition, deadlines, responsibility for outstanding charges, and the refund process if a material title problem cannot be cured.

Landed property — what this means for a foreign buyer

This is landed housing, not a unit in a co-owned building. Cambodian law does not allow a foreign individual to hold land. Foreign ownership works for an apartment above the ground floor inside a co-owned building, within the foreign quota — that is a different product from this one.

That does not automatically mean the project is closed to you: structures exist, and each carries its own legal and tax trade-offs. Which one applies — if any — is a question for a qualified Cambodian lawyer on your specific deal, not something we settle on a web page. Ask us and we will lay out the options and the risks honestly.

Home types & sizes

Link villa / compact house
House 5 × 12 m; one listing shows a 5 × 18 m plot
5 bathrooms

A verified market configuration includes four bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, and parking in front. Plot size and finishing vary by property.

Twin villa
House 6 × 14 m; plot about 8 × 23 m
5 bathrooms

Four bedrooms on a wider plot than the compact house format. It suits a household that wants parking and room for a study or guest use.

Queen Villa
House 9 × 12–13.2 m; plot about 14 × 23–24.5 m
6–8 bathrooms

A large detached villa with five to seven bedrooms; some homes add a family room, office, staff room, and storage. The exact layout depends on the release and individual property.

Listing anchors around $540,000–$550,000
Shophouse / business house
A 4.5 × 29 m plot in one official promotional item

A live-work format. Official material shows homes beside a 13-metre public internal road, but available rows and permitted uses need confirmation.

Dimensions and layouts come from verified individual listings and official product material. They are not a complete official master plan: the selected release, plot, storeys, condition, furniture, and price must be checked for the specific property. Prices are the lowest the brokerage boards publish, not the developer’s price list — the price and availability of a specific unit are something we go through with you personally.

Price & purchase terms

  • Current price: From $269,000 in a twin-villa sale listing checked on July 26, 2026. This is the lowest clear market anchor found, not a developer price list; availability, condition, title, and transaction terms require separate confirmation.

We show the lowest of the prices the brokerage boards publish: their figures for the same unit differ by a few per cent, and none of them is the developer’s price list. We ask the developer for the current price, availability and payment terms on the unit you are looking at, and go through them with you personally.

What we confirm before booking

A short, specific to the project list. We request these from the developer and go through them with you before any payment.

  • the legal entity in the SPA and the payee’s bank details
  • the title format and what is registered against the unit
  • the contractual area of the chosen unit, and which basis it is measured on
  • which amenities are fixed in the SPA annexes

Disputed and unknown information

This keeps the open points in one place. A missing or disputed fact is not treated as a conclusion.

  • Official 2026 material places Borey Rith II in Sangkat Chrang Chamreh 1, while some agency listings classify individual homes under Chrang Chamreh 2. This page follows the official label; the cadastral sangkat of the selected house must be checked against its title.
  • The second phase is linked to a 2011 construction plan, but no single official full-completion date, total house count, or current Street 598 master plan was found. Occupied resale stock exists alongside current sales.
  • Hard Title, dimensions, room counts, and the advertised 10% initial payment are supported only for selected listings or promotions, not as one rule for every home in the project.
