    Mabrachan again, this house is pretty damn big and a nice size plot of land, it looks like the building work has nearly been finished and then they all stopped working for a while, maybe the guy is American and with the dollar being worthless run out of money....

    Blue roof!?

    Doesn't that automatically exclude it? By law or something?

    In Japan it seems to be customary to have a blue tile roof. I think they look great there; especially nestled in the pine and fir forest. But, I have to agree, don't care much for the blue roofs I've seen here.

    This house is just off of Soi Thepprasit, I had to take the picture from the main gate, you can also see he has a secondary wall and gates further in, this guy likes his security, had to use the zoom to get some of the house in so gives you an idea of the land plot size.

    Seems the cyber research place in Jomtien Nivate isn't big enough, so now they are sticking some more floors on top of it.

    I'm starting to worry about the selection criteria for some of the entrants in the 'Beautiful Houses in Thailand' thread, DD...

    This one looks like the gate is wearing a tiara

    Must admit. I'm with ANT. The house looks nothing special.

    Thats cos you can't see it properly in the picture, I would have to post loads of differant pictures to show up each bit of the house as it is pretty secluded.

    This house is the main house on a big plot of land, it isn't actually the one I wanted to take a picture of, they got a really smart looking small teak wood garden house, unfortuneately it is too secluded to get a reasonable picture of it, but damn it was nice

    The Princess used to live in this house some years back, then it became a tourist resort, imagine it's nice inside? never been in.

    The following few are on the Little Hill Estate, east of Pattaya :-





    I like this one, but it's right on the private road. They prefer big houses to big gardens at Little Hill-



    Certainly different, this might belong in hideous Thai houses?

    This is a tasteful village house. Note the lack of blue roof, and tasteful colour scheme. And it's Thai owned! A policeman actually- impressive how they can build these nice houses on their 6,000 Bht salaries.

    Another police owned house....



    In fact, I think this guy got sacked recently for shooting at the waiter in a local restaurant when they had the cheek to ask him to pay for his meal

    With my extensive knowledge of Chiangmai real estate I'd say they're asking 14 million baht for it, but you could probably get it for a bit less.

    There are houses like this in Bangkok certainly worthy of renovation


    Like Ban Bang Yeekha alongside the Chao Phraya near the Rama VIII bridge

    They could probably get that sort of price if it was in Doi Saket.
