Luxury Villa Sells For US$24,000,000 in Thailand

What is widely regarded as Asia's most luxurious home has been sold, Asia Property Report understands.

Beyond Villa, located Natai Beach in Thailand's southern Phang Nga province, has been sold for around US$24 million, according to a number of industry watchers who declined to be named. The 6,500 sqm property, which was previously owned by California Fitness founder Eric Levine, has been purchased by an unidentified Russian buyer, according to several sources familiar with the transaction.

The ocean front property has been on the market for several years and was initially listed at around US$27.5 million.

Located on a 10 rai (4 acre) beach front estate on quiet Natai Beach in Phang Nga, the four bedroom villa has one of the best home gyms in the world, thanks to its former owner. It incorporates glass, steel and granite into its ultra modern and light filled design which was created by Hong Kong architect Branko Pahor.

Outside its doors Villa Beyond has a 2 hole golf course, 37 metre infinity swimming pool, barbecue terrace and covered outdoor massage and dining areas. Notable inside amenities include a 24 seat cinema, hidden kitchen, meditation room and a spa. The master bedroom is 500 sqm in size and boasts its own private swimming pool.

The home gym, with more than 80 pieces of equipment, is located in a separate pavilion on the property, as is a 750 sqm games room complete with bowling alley and karaoke room.

The property was being marketed extensively by local and international agents, and had been featured in the pages of global newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times.

Krabi Real Estate agent Krabi-Real.com Opens

Interview for Property Report Magazine

1) When did you start your operations in Krabi? How long had you been looking at the area?

I have been visiting Krabi for a few years now but have just recently started to see things step up a gear, so decided to come and set up office here a couple of months ago. I really feel the Krabi real estate market is about too start!

2) Why do you think now is the right time to open?

I have been working in the Koh Samui market over the past 6 years and have seen how much growth people can achieve on their investment in a new market and Krabi is the only remaining destination in Thailand that has not really experienced much development yet.

After speaking with a number of resort developers over the past year a lot of their attention is now being focused on the Krabi & Phang Nga area. Most of the major brands are already established in the other main tourist spots of Thailand so Krabi was the next obvious move. A few resort brands have already been tempted here, like Centara, Sofitel, Anantara, The Sheraton, Amari and the recently opened 6 star Ritz Carlton Reserve. The next to open in 2011 will be a new property under the Mercure brand.

3) What kind of developments are you expecting to see in the area over the course of the next 12 months?

I am expecting a number of land plots being bought up by the resort developers which with their new style to incorporate villas for sale within the project will also bring some quality properties available to investors. Also a few interesting projects are planned to start construction over the next 12 months, including a new marina project south of Krabi town at Haad Yao (Long Beach) where there is already a handful of beachfront projects that have been selling steadily over the past few years.

One of the most successful projects in the area has been the At Sea condos at Klong Muang beach which has sold the majority of its condos before construction has been completed, so I expect to see more similar condo projects arriving in the area.

Koh Mudsum Island land For Sale

Koh Mudsum lies just off the south coast of Koh Samui with views to Koh Mudsum, Koh Rap and mainland Thailand.

It is a long island with a sandy beach running all along one side and deep water on the other side, making this ideal for both swimming and yet deep enough to bring boats in.

Koh Mudsum is currently uninhabited except for a small working pearl farm at the southern end.

This parcel of land sits at the northern tip of the island with a huge amount of quality sand and ocean frontage, available for 8m baht per rai.

The water off this island is not too deep for a few hundred metres out and the sand is soft like silk when you walk through the water

With the Koh Samui Real Estate Market running out of good quality resort land the obvious alternative is to venture onto the smaller local islands
