01 98 Wireless

Bangkok, Thailand

On Wireless Road, one of Bangkok’s most prestigious locations, stands the impressive off-white, high-rise residential building of 98 Wireless. Owned and developed by Sansiri, Thailand’s biggest development company, 98 Wireless is the company’s latest flagship property since its first Baan Kai Muk development in Hua Hin over 30 years ago. It’s not hard to see why it’s labelled as a flagship development, as buying a unit in 98 Wireless is more than just buying a living space; it’s buying into a whole lifestyle.

Resident facilities at 98 Wireless includes the State Lounge, which residents can use for business meetings or as a workspace; the Wittayu Tea Room, a private area to enjoy a calm afternoon tea or host a few guests; as well as the Ploenjit Spa, fully equipped with massage beds and Jacuzzi so residents can wash offthe stresses of the day right in the comfort of their own building. Being a resident at 98 Wireless also gives you the benefit of a chauffeured limousine service, where dedicated drivers are available to take you to your destination in a spacious Bentley, as well as access to the Quintessentially concierge service, the global luxury lifestyle service that helps you with anything and everything.

The building is styled in Ralph Lauren Home and is fully equipped with some of the best brands in homeware, including Gaggenau and Kallista. 98 Wireless’ impressive Beaux-Arts building houses 77 units in total, and all that luxury and top-notch service is still available at a cool starting price of THB125 million, or approximately USD3.9 million for a per square metre price of around USD17,000.
