Orkide Villa The Royal

The 36-hectare scale creates a broader choice than a one-format development. King Orchid and Queen Orchid are detached villas; Orchid Twin A and Twin B are paired homes; Orchid Link is a more compact attached format; and the ShopHouse type combines commercial frontage with accommodation above. That range also means the community is not uniform in price or day-to-day use. Two properties within the same project can differ materially in plot width, parking capacity, renovation quality, frontage traffic and distance from the busier commercial sections.

The developer's house-type cards describe the original layouts, but current resale listings show that many homes have been altered or extended. The standard King Orchid is published as a five-bedroom villa, while one current corner-house listing has nine bedrooms and ten bathrooms. Queen Orchid is shown by the developer with five bedrooms, yet a live resale example is marketed with six. The type name is therefore a useful starting point rather than a substitute for inspection. Buyers should verify the actual floor plan, extensions, documented areas, roof and drainage condition, electrical systems and the approval status of any structural changes.

A central shared area is one of The Royal's clearest distinguishing features. Official materials describe an approximately one-hectare clubhouse and garden, a swimming pool, gym, landscaped areas, children's playground and health-club facilities. Market profiles also refer to 24-hour security, CCTV and parking. These amenities can add real value for family use, but resale due diligence should include the current access rules, charges, guest and tenant policies, operating hours and the physical condition of the facilities. Management arrangements may have changed since the project was completed.

The project sits on Street 2004, also known as Maida Road, in Khan Sen Sok. The developer's current website places it in Sangkat Ou Baek K'am, while the launch article and several property platforms use Tuek Thla. The identity of the development itself is clear from the name, street and the developer's map coordinates. Street 2004 links Sen Sok's residential districts with the airport corridor and the wider city network. Nearby destinations cited by market sources include CIA FIRST International School, Northbridge International School, Midtown Community Mall and Royal Phnom Penh Hospital. Peak-hour journey times should be tested against the buyer's actual routine.

Open listings checked in July 2026 confirm an active resale and rental market. The lowest public asking-price anchor found was a shophouse at $270,000, while larger current villa examples are substantially higher: about $1.2 million for a Queen Orchid resale and $1.65 million for a corner King Orchid. These figures are not a project-wide price list. Value depends on the home type, plot position, corner status, alterations, fit-out, furniture, title, physical condition and the seller's circumstances. Before paying a deposit, the buyer should obtain the documents for the specific property and compare it with several genuinely similar homes.

The most useful way to compare homes inside The Royal is to start with the household's daily routine rather than the model name. A shophouse offers frontage and exposure to passing traffic, but may also bring more noise, visitor parking and less privacy at ground level. A home on an internal residential street is usually calmer, although distance from the gate, clubhouse and services matters more. A corner plot may provide extra light, a second access point and more open boundary, while also increasing the façade, fencing and outdoor area to maintain. Living close to the pool and clubhouse can be convenient for a family with children, but the exact position should also be visited in the evening and at weekends when shared areas are busiest.

A completed-house purchase needs two parallel reviews: legal documentation and physical condition. The document review should establish the seller's identity and authority, the nature and boundaries of the rights attached to the specific plot, any unresolved obligations, the status of utility and estate-management payments, and the approval position of visible extensions. A technical inspection should cover the roof and waterproofing, cracking, site drainage, plumbing, electrical systems, pumps, air conditioning, moisture marks and exterior finishes. A polished renovation can conceal expensive defects, while an unrenovated home may sometimes be easier to assess honestly. Preparing a repair budget before the final price is agreed helps compare properties on total acquisition and ownership cost rather than on the asking price alone.

The Royal is best suited to buyers who want a completed house in an established urban community rather than a construction-stage purchase. Its practical advantage is the ability to inspect the real environment — neighbours, noise, parking, estate operations and the quality of the exact street. The trade-off is that an older, very large community requires property-level diligence. Building condition and services vary from one home to another, and modified layouts may no longer match the original brochure. The decision is not simply between a King, Queen or Twin type; it is a decision about an individual resale asset with its own maintenance, alteration, payment and ownership history.
