A 3-bedroom condo at Ficus Lane, 6 minutes' walk from Phra Khanong BTS.
The development is a " boutique resort style" low rise project by Sansiri, built in 2008 with just 70 units and so offers residents something a little different from the large scale newer projects in the area.

The money
What it costs to get the keys.
- Monthly rent
- ฿150,000
- Deposit (two months)
- ฿300,000
- Advance (one month)
- ฿150,000
- Common fee
- Owner pays
- To get the keys
- ฿450,000
Two months deposit and one month advance is the standard Thai lease. The deposit is returned at the end, less anything genuinely damaged — we photograph the home on the day you move in.
Living here costs about ฿12,000–22,500 a month on top of the rent — electricity, water and internet at government rates.
Two things decide this bill: the thermostat, and who does the billing. If the building re-bills electricity itself, ask the rate per unit before you sign — the government rate is about 4 baht, and re-billed buildings commonly charge 5 to 8. We check this for you on any unit here.
Medians are counted from the homes we have published in this area, not from asking prices across the market. Phra Khanong is left out here rather than estimated, because a median needs at least 8 homes.

The questions that come up after you move in.
Who fixes the air-con?
The landlord, for anything structural or pre-existing, in the first year of a standard Thai lease. Day-to-day servicing is usually the tenant's. We put which is which in writing before you sign, because “usually” is where the arguments start.
What do the common fees cover?
Building or village fees — security, gardens, pool, gym — are the owner's, not yours. You pay electricity, water and internet directly. We confirm the split for this specific home before you commit to anything.
Can I leave before the lease ends?
A twelve-month lease is twelve months, and leaving early normally costs the deposit — the landlord is within their rights. Some owners will agree to a break clause if a visa or a posting ends; it has to be written in before you sign, because afterwards there is nothing to appeal to.
Ask when it is free
Taken — but a lease ends.
Nobody has written down when this one is up, so we are not going to guess a month at you. Tell us it is the home you want and we will ask the landlord directly, and watch the rest of Ficus Lane while we wait.
