BANGKOK, Nov. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Total residential sales of branded homes exceed US$ 610 million at The Forestias

"It's an exciting new concept that is inspired by the way families had always

lived in Thailand – connected homes for multiple generations of the same family

to live next to each other and spend more time together." Mr. Chakrit

Hassarangsee, Senior Vice President - MQDC

MQDC (Magnolia Quality Development Corporation), one of Thailand's leading

property developers, today, announced that it is opening the first of its

Mulberry Grove The Forestias Villas residences on 1st December 2022. It will

showcase a new concept in home design that allows multiple villas to be

connected together so that extended families of several generations can live

together while also enjoying the privacy of being in their own, separate home.

The Mulberry Grove Villas are comprised of 37 houses that range in size from

around 1,000 square meters to 1,700 square meters. They are laid out across

4.16 hectares at the 64-hectare 'The Forestias' mixed use development, which is

one of Thailand's largest private sector property development projects and is

located in eastern Bangkok in the rapidly developing 'Eastern Economic

Corridor'.

Mr. Chakrit Hassarangsee, MQDC's Senior Vice President specializing in the

development of the most luxurious residential brands said, "It's an exciting

new concept that is inspired by the way families had always lived in Thailand –

in connected homes with multiple generations of the same family living next to

each other. Modern urban lifestyle needs have made that increasingly difficult,

and Mulberry Grove aims to help families reconnect. We have had a lot of

interest in our concept and now we can invite families to view the real thing

from the first of December onwards."

He said that Mulberry Grove Villas are designed in three sizes, ranging from

four to six bedrooms, and that families can decide on purchasing a combination

of home types to create a cluster of different sized homes that can be

connected by short walkways, but which are also separated by trees and other

natural screens for privacy.

"The biggest homes have very large dining areas and communal spaces so that the

entire family, from all generations, can gather together in one home, too, and

with some homes comfortably seating twenty or more people at a table at the

same time."

Creating a cluster of houses, rather than having one single very large house,

is also intended to let each generation design their interiors and their home

layouts to suit their own, different generational needs and styles.

'Time Bonus'

Mr. Roongroj Chongsujipan, Senior Vice President, MQDC said, "This concept,

which lets one live in immediate proximity to one's parents or adult children,

or both, also gives homeowners a big 'time bonus'. All generations, while

living in a home designed just right for their own needs, can still reach other

members of the family in less than a minute's walk. Families can help each

other with the care of children as well as provide care for elderly parents

much more conveniently and at any time of day or night. It all translates to

less time in traffic travelling between homes, and more time together for

families.

"Another important benefit is that children will never feel left at home alone

because there is always a family member nearby in one of the homes, while

retired grandparents will be much more energized by always being a part of

their children's and grandchildren's lives by being so close."

The extra-large Mulberry Grove Villa type has around 1,700 sqm of floor space

and is priced (at current exchange rates) at approximately US$8.7 million. The

large villas have around 1,200 sqm of floor space and are priced at

approximately US$6.2 million. And the medium size villas have around 1,000 sqm

of floor space and are priced at US$5.2 million.

The Mulberry Grove Villas are located close to several other luxury components

within The Forestias including the ultra-luxury Six Senses Residences, which

are the first Six Senses Residences being built in Thailand, as well as a new

Six Senses Hotel that is scheduled to open in 2024.

The Forestias is a new global prototype for a town development and is the

world's first town to have every aspect purposefully designed for healthier

living. It is designed and being built by some of the world's most respected

experts and has already received more than 40 global awards recognising its

outstanding aspects that focus on healthier living, environmental quality, and

sustainability. Among the awards is a 'Gold Award for Urban Design' presented

by the prestigious International Design Awards (IDA), a Platinum Award for

environmental sustainability from the Outstanding Property Awards London, as

well as being selected a Winner of the Visionary Living & Working award from

Innovative Architecture.

Mr. Kittiphun Ouiyamaphun, Project Director – The Forestias, MQDC, said, "We

have seen a lot of excitement around our various residential components,

including the Mulberry Grove Villas, as well as at the Six Senses Residences.

We feel very rewarded by seeing so many families committing to the various

components of The Forestias and we are making very rapid progress with

construction."

The Forestias has registered total sales of residences across the multiple

branded projects exceeding US$ 610 million.

One of the highlight features of The Forestias is a 4.8-hectares forest at the

center of the development that has a 1.6-kilometer walkway weaving through the

forest canopy. Apart from the residential components, The Forestias also

includes lifestyle and family entertainment facilities, retail and food &

beverage outlets, a Town Center for community activities and cultural pursuits,

a Family Center, multiple markets, a sports complex, and commercial space for

offices.
