Residence 52

Location is the most straightforward part of the proposition. Residence 52 sits inside Sukhumvit Soi 52, with current sources generally placing On Nut BTS about 400–500 metres away. Lotus On Nut is close to the station side of the neighbourhood, while the original project material also highlights road access through Sukhumvit 50 and 62 toward the expressway network. A resident therefore has a credible rail option for central Sukhumvit and a separate road option for trips that do not fit the BTS corridor, although actual driving time will still depend heavily on Bangkok traffic.

The apartment sizes are more generous than the compact layouts common in many later mass-market launches around transit. Home.co records two-bedroom layouts at 59.53–68.12 sqm and three-bedroom layouts at 87.44–100.13 sqm; an established Japanese rental agency reports closely comparable bands, while the official factsheet gives the overall 34.2–100.13 sqm range. For an owner-occupier, that can be a genuine advantage. The trade-off is that buyers should spend more effort on air-conditioning systems, plumbing, waterproofing, windows, built-ins and previous renovation work because the building is an early-2010s property rather than a fresh handover.

The amenity package is conventional but practical. The original factsheet lists a swimming pool and jacuzzi, fitness room, parking, multipurpose room, laundry room, vertical garden, shuttle service, Wi-Fi and satellite television. Current project portals continue to show a pool, gym, security, CCTV, parking, garden space and shuttle service. With a completed resale building, the useful question is not whether an amenity appeared in the launch brochure but whether it is operating well today. Recent inspection evidence, juristic-person notices and a viewing of the common areas carry more weight than archived marketing copy.

Running-cost data needs the same treatment. The original factsheet states a common-area fee of THB 40 per sqm and a THB 500 per sqm sinking fund payable at the original transfer. PropertyHub and Condothai still show THB 40 per sqm, while FazWaz displays THB 45 per sqm. A resale buyer should therefore ask for the latest juristic-person fee schedule and the seller's most recent payment record. The historical sinking-fund figure is useful context but should not be assumed to be a new charge on every resale transfer.

There is no single project price today. Residence 52 trades unit by unit on the secondary market. When checked in September 2026, a 35 sqm one-bedroom was still advertised around THB 3.45M, other one-bedroom offers were around THB 3.75M, a specific two-bedroom listing appeared at THB 4.8M, and 87 sqm three-bedroom units were being marketed around THB 9.59M. Those numbers are asking prices, not valuations. Renovation quality, floor, orientation, furniture, tenancy, foreign-quota status and the seller's urgency can create large differences between apartments in the same building.

Foreign ownership is possible under Thailand's condominium rules, but it is unit-specific rather than automatic. Foreign freehold is limited by the statutory 49% foreign quota measured across the condominium's aggregate unit area, and the juristic person must confirm the foreign proportion for transfer. Residence 52 listings currently show both foreign-quota and Thai-quota stock. A foreign buyer should therefore treat quota status as a documentary condition of the chosen resale, not as a general characteristic of the building.

Address data is less tidy than the physical identity of the project. Residence 52's own website gives 47 Sukhumvit Soi 52, Bang Chak, Phra Khanong, Bangkok 10260. Third-party databases use alternatives including 11/2, 27/2 and 49 on the same soi. These may reflect different address conventions, plot references or data normalisation, but the underlying reason was not confirmed from a land document. The primary address is therefore retained, while the map radius is intentionally broader to avoid pretending to have survey-grade precision.

The project ultimately suits buyers who value space, an established On Nut location and the ability to judge a finished asset rather than wait for a promise. It is less suitable for someone who wants a brand-new warranty package, a developer instalment plan or extensive contemporary shared facilities. The best Residence 52 purchase will come from unit-level due diligence: title and quota, seller authority, juristic-person debt clearance, current common fees, building maintenance, renovation quality and the actual condition of the apartment all matter more than the project name on its own.
