Why this project is worth a look
Boutique scale
With only 15 homes, the development is fundamentally different from a large Phnom Penh borey. A buyer can understand the position of each house, the density of the rows and the character of the internal street without navigating a vast masterplan. The trade-off is limited stock: comparable homes may not be available at the same time.
Central courtyard
The lightwell sits inside the house rather than only at the rear of the plot. It brings daylight and air to the living room, stairs, bridges and upper-level rooms. This is a practical response to the depth of a linkhouse, improving the daily sense of openness without implying that mechanical cooling is unnecessary.
Two clear formats
Type M and Type L provide a straightforward basis for comparison: 5 by 17 metres and 255 sqm of internal area versus 6 by 20 metres and 360 sqm. Both are four-bedroom, four-bathroom homes, but their frontage, volume and furnishing options differ significantly. The house type therefore has a direct effect on budget and use.
Completed homes
The project is finished, allowing buyers to inspect the actual facade, courtyard, fit-out and building systems instead of relying on renders. That reduces uncertainty about the physical product, but it does not replace legal or technical due diligence. Condition, title, alterations and included fixtures can vary from one completed home to another.
About the project
Kambujaya Residences is a small landed-home development in Veal Sbov, on the eastern side of Phnom Penh, and the official project materials also use the name KBJ Residences. It is not a condominium or a residential tower. The scheme contains 15 three-storey, four-bedroom linkhouses arranged as a compact architectural collection. Buyers receive an individual home with a private driveway and rear yard while remaining inside a coordinated borey-style community. The project was completed in the first quarter of 2023, so the decision is no longer about construction delivery. It is about the condition, title, fit-out, seller and exact position of a finished home.
Two standard formats define the project: Type M and Type L. Type M is 5 metres wide and 17 metres deep, with a published internal area of 255 sqm. The larger Type L measures 6 by 20 metres and has a published internal area of 360 sqm. Both were designed with four bedrooms and four bathrooms. The difference is more substantial than a wider frontage on paper: Type L offers larger internal volumes and more generous connections between the main living spaces. A sensible comparison therefore looks at the house type, row position, garden depth, orientation and included fixtures rather than relying on one project-wide headline price.

The ground floor follows a long sequence from the internal street to the back of the plot. A front setback of about 7 metres creates a private driveway and separates the main living room from passing vehicles. The living area then opens towards a central courtyard, followed by the kitchen and dining space, before reaching a rear yard that is generally around 3 to 6 metres deep depending on the format and individual house. This arrangement preserves the practical depth of a Phnom Penh linkhouse but breaks it into distinct zones rather than treating the building as one continuous enclosed corridor.
The central courtyard is the defining feature of Kambujaya Residences. A skylight above it, together with stairs, bridges and upper-level openings, brings daylight and moving air into the middle of the house. That matters in a deep urban home where internal rooms can otherwise feel detached from the exterior. The main living room has a ceiling height of about 3 metres, while double-wall construction, air gaps around the skylight and integrated planting support the climate-responsive layout. Air-conditioning will still be part of daily life, but the house offers more opportunities for natural ventilation and shaded indoor-outdoor use.
The upper floors contain the private rooms. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, while a family lounge or study can serve as a home office, playroom, reading area or an additional bedroom when household needs change. Balconies and internal openings maintain a visual relationship with the courtyard and greenery below. Because the homes are completed and may have passed through different owners, buyers should confirm whether a particular unit retains the original plan. Furniture packages, partitions, built-in cabinetry and room uses can vary materially from one resale home to another.
Published project specifications include concealed air-conditioning routes, water heaters and a pump, fibre-optic infrastructure, CAT6 cabling, anti-termite treatment, automated gates, sanitary ware and fitted kitchen appliances. The rear service area was designed to accommodate laundry and an outdoor wet kitchen. Construction notes also describe mesh reinforcement where brickwork meets concrete, concrete lintels, concealed services and structural elements sized for the 5- and 6-metre spans. Those details provide useful context, but a finished house still requires an on-site technical inspection to confirm current waterproofing, drainage, electrical work, equipment and maintenance.
Veal Sbov forms part of the expanding residential belt of Khan Chbar Ampov. Kambujaya Residences sits approximately 900 metres from National Road 1, close enough to use the eastern arterial without placing the homes directly on it. The setting is less urban and less walkable than BKK1, Tonle Bassac or Daun Penh. In exchange, the project offers a landed-home format, private outdoor space and substantially more internal area. Travel times depend on bridge conditions, traffic and the hour of the day, so buyers should test the route to work, school and regular services during the periods that matter to their household.
Kambujaya Residences is a completed boutique community rather than a large borey with hundreds of near-identical homes. Its limited scale makes the project easy to understand, but listings are likely to be intermittent and highly individual. There is no current public project-wide starting price. Available stock may include a standard Type M or Type L, an owner-modified resale, or the separate corner-villa product with very different dimensions. The transaction should therefore begin with the identity of the exact property, followed by checks on title, plot boundaries, building condition, parking, furniture, community charges and any alteration history.

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
The more compact of the two standard formats. A deep front driveway leads to a ground floor that connects the living room, central courtyard, kitchen and dining area, with service and outdoor space at the rear. Bedrooms and a flexible family area occupy the upper levels. Type M suits a household that wants a full four-bedroom home without paying for the maximum width of Type L. Row position, garden depth and owner alterations should be checked for the individual property.
The larger standard format has a wider frontage and greater depth. The extra metre of width is noticeable in the living room, kitchen, stair zone and bedrooms, while the larger internal area creates more freedom for storage, home working and family spaces. The front driveway was designed for two cars, and the rear retains outdoor and service functions. Buyers should verify the plot boundary, facade condition, parking arrangement and included built-in equipment for the exact house.
Type M and Type L are the standard four-bedroom homes in the development. The separate corner Kambujaya Villa, which has been marketed as a seven-bedroom property, has a different plot and floor area and is not treated as a standard community layout. Current public pricing and availability by type are not published and must be confirmed for the exact completed house.

How the tower is arranged
- Ground floorDriveway, living room, central courtyard, kitchen and dining area, storage, rear yard and service space. The plan connects the front and back of the house through an internal open-air zone.
- First floorPrincipal bedroom with an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, additional bedrooms and a family area. Openings face the central courtyard, supporting daylight and ventilation through the depth of the home.
- Second floorRemaining bedrooms, bathrooms, balconies and flexible space. The actual room use may differ where a completed house has been altered or adapted by an owner.
Location
- The development is in Sangkat Veal Sbov, Khan Chbar Ampov, approximately 900 metres from National Road 1. It connects to Phnom Penh's main eastern corridor without placing the homes directly beside the arterial road.
- The location is primarily car-oriented. Walkability and the density of everyday services are lower than in the central districts, so a buyer should test the regular route to work, school, healthcare and shopping before making a decision.
- A listing for the separate corner villa within the community cited approximate travel times of 3 minutes to Prek Eng Market, 5 minutes to Wisdom International School and 10 minutes to Cho Ray Phnom Penh Hospital. These are listing estimates, not guaranteed journey times.
- Chbar Ampov reaches central Phnom Penh through the bridges and National Road 1. Actual travel time changes significantly during peak periods, making it useful to schedule a viewing when the future resident would normally commute.
- Public project materials do not provide a complete street or house number. Navigation relies on the Kambujaya Residences name, Veal Sbov and the National Road 1 reference; the exact entrance should be confirmed before a visit.

Best for: Families that need four proper bedrooms, several bathrooms and separate areas for work, study and shared time. The three-storey plan separates active and private rooms, while the courtyard brings daylight into the middle of the home.; Buyers who prefer a completed landed home to a new apartment in a tower. The facade, yard, stairs, kitchen and building systems can be inspected in their actual condition, allowing the decision to focus on the exact property rather than a future delivery promise.; People who like the efficiency of a linkhouse but dislike the dark centre of a conventional deep plan. The courtyard, skylight and integrated planting create a more open spatial sequence than a standard terraced house with no internal outdoor space.; Households willing to live east of the centre and rely on a car in exchange for greater internal area, a private driveway and a rear yard. The project is particularly practical when regular family routes already connect to Chbar Ampov, National Road 1 or the eastern metropolitan area.; may not suit: Buyers looking for a condominium with a pool, gym, reception and tower-style management. Kambujaya Residences is a community of individual houses; its published features focus on the homes, landscaping, internal street and security rather than resort amenities.; People who intend to live without a car and walk daily through a dense central neighbourhood. Veal Sbov offers a different trade-off: more space and a private house, but less urban activity immediately outside the gate.; Buyers who require one public starting price and a large selection of identical new units. The development is completed and contains only 15 homes, so availability depends on individual owners, condition, house type and the timing of resale listings..
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 current price and payment schedule for the unit you are looking at
- the legal entity in the SPA and the payee’s bank details
- the title format and what is registered against the unit
- the contractual handover date in the SPA — the page shows the date from the project’s materials
Disputed and unknown information
This keeps the open points in one place. A missing or disputed fact is not treated as a conclusion.
- Official project materials state completion in Q1 2023, while the architect's portfolio labels the scheme as Built, 2022. The more specific Q1 2023 date is used here; the difference between construction completion and the architectural project date requires documentary confirmation.
- No complete street or house number and no independently verified exact map pin were found in public materials. The usable public address is limited to the project name, approximately 900 metres from National Road 1, Sangkat Veal Sbov and Khan Chbar Ampov.
- Current pricing, Type M and Type L availability, title form, community charges and the terms of any resale are not publicly confirmed. These points must be checked against the selected house and its document set before reservation.
