what a great, great house 5.3 million baht Andy bought this two years ago
Hi, everyone Simon here down in a very sunny and hot Cha-am or just outside Cha-am a bit of
a neighborhood look for you what I'm showing you today is what you get for
money in this little house series I'm doing I showed you
Ian's rental house last few weeks ago for 6,500 this house is next door to
Andy's just have a look at that effect on the front of that house it's concrete
but it looks like wood other than if you can see in this sunlight maybe you can't
see it but it's very strange effect looks lovely and a nice little pool this
house I'm not sure what the footprint is I'm gonna guess about a hundred Dara
meter but yep that's up for grabs next to Andy and I believe wow I think I'm
gonna guess that about four and a half million Thai Baht so I'm going to show
you Andy Oswald's house Andy I'll introduce on another video a
bit more of Andy. Andy has been here for two years I believe it is we'll
check in a minute and Andy paid 5.3 million baht manual sliding metal gate
come on in now Andy bought this house the previous owner had done most of the
landscaping and gorgeous Gardens how BIG's the footprint of this house Andy
the land is what lat 850 squared meters
what's the actual how many Ria , just over half a right okay
so very very nice garden and he has got his own private little sarla he comes
through here and we've got a pool wow that's hot today this is my favorite
friend's house master bedroom nice little seating area outside and we'll
walk around instead of walking that way I walk and they're looking from the
bedroom open the door straight on the pool with a couple of pillars another
seating area outside the lounge
absolutely gorgeous so yeah Sarla with a bit of a hammock in there instead
of the table and chairs but from the bedroom in this little seating area
which is gorgeous looking out onto the pool pool house over here with all the
pumps and everything in it also a little shed for garden tools sunbathing area
slide for the kids beautiful outside on the side is herbs and spices growing and
bits and bobs barbecue area oh very nice okay yeah a papaya tree and then this is
Andy's posh gym and I've only ever seen all that expensive equipment uncovered
once only ever once Andy once we've had a lot of rain over the
weekend it need to be covered to protect it from the rain. Who do we believe. Then round it back we have got mem and
Andy's won't look at his washing Andy's his good lady
Tuk gonna walk past them without seeing what they're eating
and don't want you on camera with me
water treatment system complete setup sand everything our rows two pumps not
sure about this sliding doors and his tools and workshop not quite sure
whether that was a gym before but an a build it another seating area around the
side of us just it's just lovely if you're into gardening this is great all
the windows security metal stainless steel covers on this one and on the that
bedroom but he's also got metal shutters inside the some of the windows and doors
that roll down and take the shoes off that roll down and as extra security not
that it's a bad area or anything so yeah here we got those and then inside this
one is I get the camera to change the light
that's it it's it's the doors that actually the metal doors that slide
across so well what kind of the lounge will just look bedroom this is the
master bedroom and they're looking out at the pool ha ha big old lounge kitchen
open-plan we have nice bathroom in here which similar Thai style he's actually
got one of those Japanese electronic toilets don't ask me
spare bedroom air cons everywhere so we have bathroom 3 bedrooms so this is that
actually this is the master bedroom because it's got ensuite I'm not going
to go in there but yep master bedroom ensuite lovely ceiling fans everywhere
it's got a gorgeous tiled floor
absolutely lovely house now where we're situated as I said in a we're in a cul-de-sac
there are couple of other cul-de-sac's up the lane and it's pretty much
all owned by foreigners this around this estate I'm not going to show you where
this estate is on the map but it's five minutes from the beach at Cha-am and 60
minutes from our house
absolutely lovely really really nice Pool is a perfect temperature all the time
maintenance that cost a couple of thousand baht a month and he has a pool
guy come in who does all the water clean in the chemicals and everything cleans
the pool and the electric with with the pool guy every than 2,000 baht a month
to run that there's an idea what's the size what's that 5 meters by
4 meters I'd say and it's a meter deep down to 1.2 meters at the other end the
deep end
it's a nice-size pool that's a good sized pool to have here and Andy uses
that every day any inquiries about his car and he's got the Nissan hybrid
electric petrol Nissan something or other and the obligatory spirit house in
the corner absolutely gorgeous what a great great house 5.3 million
Baht and he bought this two years ago and Andy set up a Thai holding company
to purchase it will be going into that on some video soon 5.3 million Baht today
November 2018 with the exchange rates that works out to about one hundred and
thirty three thousand pound one hundred and let's say one hundred and fifty
thousand American dollars two hundred and sixty thousand Australian dollars
about one hundred and thirty five thousand euros on .8 of a Rai
so almost a Rai. Next door is just on a smaller footprint so maybe that's half
no it's less than half a Rai next door but smaller footprint
and that's Cha-am now this estate there's new builds going up on another Road at
the back 4.2 million Baht hundred thousand pound one hundred and twenty
thousand American dollars two hundred thousand Australian dollars one hundred
and three thousand euros quite a few of them but very small gardens in fact the
back of some of them just go straight onto the edge of the property a lot of
houses here in Cha-am the moment four million four point two four point five
five million Baht that seems to be the going rate here which hopefully will
give you guys just an idea of some prices
I will possibly be showing you another house later on in another friend in
Cha-am and he's renting I believe and we'll have a look at that house and see
what the prices are on that but overall well maintained there's a lot of money
spent on this garden when the guy previous owner bought the house they
would have had nothing in the garden and he's had it all landscaped and lots of
decorative items added and it is it's it adds up the costs when you start doing
gardening you start putting grass in anyway it's good quality grass he's got
in. Andy has a gardener as well every month comes in and does so much and his
lovely wife took there's a lot of gardening as well but it's gorgeous
there we go hope you enjoy hope you enjoyed the little tour of of Andy's
house and I'll introduce you to Andy on the new series were about to start so you

that starting that Thai company up to buy this property we'll be covering that me
