Why this project is worth a look
Central BKK1
Phnom Penh's main business and residential district: embassies, international schools, offices and restaurants are all inside it.
High-rise architecture
52 floors, roughly 180 metres in height and 276 residences.
Large layouts, ceilings up to 3.6 m
Up to 203 sqm in the three-bedroom residences, plus penthouses. The stated ceiling height is 3.3–3.6 m.
Amenities across eight floors
Eight floors of the tower are given to facilities: a skyline infinity pool and a glass skywalk through to a co-working lounge and children's areas.
An art concept
The project is built around the Picasso name: layouts are named after periods of his work and the building has its own PICASA gallery.
About the project
Picasso Sky Gemme is a residential high-rise in Sangkat BKK1, on the corner of Street 278 and Street 57 — the middle of Phnom Penh, where the embassies, the international schools, the offices and the restaurants sit inside the district rather than half an hour away from it. The developer reported construction starting in March 2026 and states completion in 2029; other public sources state 2028 and 2030.
The tower runs to 52 floors and roughly 180 metres and holds 276 residences. Detailed published layouts cover one bedroom at 61–76 sqm, two bedrooms at 93–116 sqm and three bedrooms at 170–203 sqm; the official site also states four bedrooms and penthouses, but no separate four-bedroom plan was found in the public materials. The full stated size range is 61 to 700 sqm. The stated ceiling height is 3.3–3.6 m. Check the exact contractual area of your unit against its floor plan and the SPA annexes.

Eight floors go to amenities, about a quarter of the tower: the developer describes the split as 60% residence, 25% amenities, 15% commercial and car park. Wellness and sport — a skyline infinity pool, a gym and wellness centre, a yoga room, steam and sauna, a jacuzzi, a spa, a running track. Work and socialising — a co-working lounge, a library, a private dining room, a sky bar, a multi-purpose hall. Family and leisure — a children's playscape, an outdoor theatre, a BBQ area, a pet-friendly area, a climbing wall, an indoor golf range. Art and architecture — the PICASA gallery, a glass skywalk, greenery terraces. The first two floors are a retail mall, so the everyday shop is not a trip out of the building. The building has 7 lifts and 120 parking spaces.
The art concept goes past the name: the layouts are named after periods of Picasso's work — Blue and Rose, Cubism, Surrealism — and themed interiors and the building's own gallery are built into the shared spaces.
BKK1 brings an international pool of tenants and buyers and steady demand for good-quality housing. The trade-offs of a central address come with it: dense building, traffic, and budgets above the outer districts. This is a decision about the address, not a search for the lowest price per square metre.
The project is at an early construction stage, so the images are visuals from the project's materials rather than photographs of a finished building, and the handover date is fixed by contract. In July 2026 the brokerage boards publish one-bedroom units from $170,000, two-bedrooms from $260,000 and three-bedrooms from $470,000; nobody publishes a penthouse price. These are broker listings, not the developer's price list: we ask the developer for current prices, available layouts and payment terms on the specific unit, and go through them with you personally.
Ownership format
Freehold Hard Title Or Strata Title Source Conflict
Unit types & sizes
A compact format for living in BKK1 or for long-term rental.
A roomy format for a couple or a family.
Large family residences — there are not many of this size in BKK1.
The top of the collection: view residences with the largest floor areas in the project.
The types and the gross sizes are from the project's current materials; the net sizes are from a market source. Gross counts the unit's share of the building's common areas, net is the flat itself; listings normally quote gross. Check the exact contractual area, and which basis it is measured on, against the floor plan for your unit and the SPA annexes. Prices are the lowest the brokerage boards publish as of July 2026, not the developer’s price list — the price and availability of a specific unit are something we go through with you personally.

Facilities

The stack is from the project's current materials; the ceiling heights per floor are from a market source. The level names are ours — the sources do not agree on the developer's own zone names. Floor 6 is given as both car park and family zone, which is how the materials have it. The final arrangement is fixed in the SPA annexes.

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. The official project site states 2029. ERA and Lux Realty also publish 2028, while CAM Realty states 2030; confirm the contractual date against the SPA. The service charges are as published by the market sources; the rates in force and what they cover are confirmed with the management company.
How the payments run
- Booking$2,000 to reserve the unit
- Signing the SPA30% of the unit price
- Instalments60% over 48 months, interest-free
- Handoverthe final 10% when you get the keys
The schedule is what three brokerage boards published as of July 2026, not a developer document; a fourth board publishes a different structure. Payment terms change and are negotiable: we confirm the current schedule, the booking fee and what happens on a late instalment with the developer, for your unit, before you reserve.

Your selections are not saved anywhere. This is a decision aid, not an assessment.
Best for: Own use — if central BKK1 is specifically what you want.; Buyers who need space: up to 203 sqm in the three-bedroom residences, plus penthouses.; Entering early: construction started in March 2026.; Buyers who value in-building amenities: eight floors of them for 276 residences.; Buyers for whom the architecture and the art concept matter.; may not suit: You need a finished building and keys now.; You need a confirmed rental income from month one.; You need the lowest possible budget: central BKK1 costs more than the outskirts.; You are not comfortable with early-stage construction risk..
What we confirm before booking
A short, project-specific list. We request these from the developer and go through them with you before any payment.
- The current price, unit availability and the payment schedule.
- The legal entity in the SPA and the payee's bank details.
- The contractual handover date and the title format for the chosen unit.
- The unit's specification and the amenity list 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.
- Price. The developer publishes no price list of its own: every figure on this page comes from brokerage listings as of July 2026, and the boards quote different amounts for the same unit. We do not hold the developer's current price.
- Ownership. The developer's site says Freehold / Hard Title, the brokerage boards say Strata Title, and some of them contradict themselves on a single page. These are different instruments: we have seen no title document, and what is actually registered against a unit is established by a lawyer against your contract.
- Handover. We publish 2029, the year in the project's current materials. Public sources meanwhile name 2028 and 2030, and one board prints two different years on the same page of its own. The date that will bind is the one written into the SPA, and the SPA has not been shown to us.
