Thread: Photo reporting the build of the house we bought in a walled village complex

We have since installed a plate glass partition between the toilet and the shower area as the whole room was soaked after a shower (inclusive the toilet roll !) ...

Although I still have quite a lot more photo's of our house build I will now try to show you a journey through different parts of the village.

The basic layout starts at the only entrance to the village which is in it'self quite impressive. The entrance is manned 24/7 by two uniformed gaurds that control everything and everyone who is going in and out of the complex. All residents are greeted with a Thai wai and all residents cars have a special sticker on their front windshield that can be read by the CCTV system.

Once through the impressive entrance there is a small roundabout with four elephants looking in all directions. Immediatley to the left at this point is also the swimming pool and sports complex.

The two streets that lead off from here lead through the village and are intersected halfway through their length and at the very end.

Before venturing into the village itself I will show you the build (and later the completed) Swimming Pool and Sports Complex.

During the first year these facilities were not yet ready but we all were informed of the dates that various things would be completed during the purchase of our house.

Here they have made a start on the foundations of the Swimming Pool and Sports Complex

Hi and thanks for saying hello ... I just wondered if you were referring to the size of the Pool and Sports Complex or to the village itself?
There are either 98 or 111 individual (I need to count them, ha, ha!) houses within the boundaries of the complex.
Let me know exactly what you mean ..

The following photo's we took a little while later after being out of the country for a while but you can now see the larger building to the left behind the pool area which will be the Gym area and the smaller building to the back-right are toilets and showers.

The Gym Facilities in-front with the Pool to the right ...

Pool with the filter overflow at the front ...

Back centre is the Toilet and Shower building ...

The children's pool area ...

It certainly is and we, and many of the residents make good use of it every day. Also for social events within the village it is a fantastic area with lots of facilities ...

Everything within the Gym and Pool complex is cleaned twice daily and we reularly see the gardeners that look after all the public areas in the village.

One thing that attracted us to this particular complex was that no two houses were the same. There were smaller 2 bedroom houses, larger 4 and 5 bedrrom houses and many of the size we had bought with 3 bedrroms.

Even after only one year there is so much greenery everywhere from the well tended gardens.

There was a choice of 7 different shades of roof tiles, 4 different styles of fronts, 3 different plot sizes and many other choices that gives the relaxed atmosphere that is everywhere in the village.
Other than cars out and in before and after work there is no through traffic of any sort as there is only one way in and out of the complex.
