Water Edge

Water Edge, more often spelled Water's Edge on property portals, is a boutique beachfront condominium in Na Jomtien. It was developed by Powerhouse Development and completed in 2015. The project is a single 8-storey building with just 37 apartments, an uncommon format on the Pattaya coast: few neighbours, and the beach starts right outside the grounds. Water Edge condominium in Na Jomtien, Pattaya is aimed at buyers who want privacy and water views rather than a large resort-style estate.

Location

The building sits at the seaward end of Soi Na Jomtien 8, right on Na Jomtien Beach: on the map it is less than 50 m from the building to the sand, and residents step onto the shore straight from the grounds. Beach restaurants, including Sea Falcon, and a windsurfing centre are next door, and the Whale Marina complex stands immediately behind. Sukhumvit Road is about 1 km up the soi, with songthaews and the main route to central Pattaya and Sattahip. Pattaya Floating Market and Mimosa Pattaya are roughly 2 km away in a straight line, the Ocean Marina yacht harbour about 3 km, Underwater World about 5 km and Walking Street about 9 km. The surroundings are quiet: residential buildings, small hotels and waterside restaurants.

Facilities

• rooftop infinity pool overlooking the bay
• jacuzzi and a shaded sun deck
• gym
• reception lobby and garden
• 24-hour security, CCTV and key-card access
• residents' parking and a lift

Apartments

There are three layout types: studios of about 35 sq m, one-bedroom apartments from 57 to 70 sq m and two-bedroom units of about 82–83 sq m. The More Property catalogue currently shows units from 35 to 53 sq m. Apartments are finished in a contemporary style with a European kitchen, a dining area and a spacious balcony, and some have walk-in wardrobes. Thanks to the shoreline position many units face the bay, and the roof takes in the whole sweep of the coast. It is worth checking the floor and the side of the building, as they decide whether the sea view is direct or angled.

Who it suits

Water Edge works as a permanent home or as a private seaside base for seasonal stays. A small number of neighbours means privacy and a calm atmosphere, but also a compact set of shared amenities: the rooftop pool, gym and lobby, without the clubhouse facilities of larger developments. As a rental it appeals to guests who put a front-row position and quiet first. In Thai condominiums up to 49% of the saleable area can be registered in foreign ownership (the foreign quota); the rest is held under the Thai quota or through a company.
