Garden Residency 2
The majority of funds raised after the listing was directed towards the developer’s The Garden Residency 2, 31-storey condominium in Phnom Penh’s Sen Sok District – with a one-bedroom and two-bedroom unit at $39,000 with buyers can get a home with a $299 monthly payment with no interest nor down payment.
The project most recently completed the topping of their flagship project in Phnom Penh’s Sen Sok district hosting a celebratory event with both company and industry stakeholders.
In building terms, topping is held when the last beam (or its equivalent) is placed atop a structure during its construction.
The project located in Phnom Penh’s Sen Sok district consists of 31 floors, an automated car park, gym facilities, two swimming pools, and a rooftop sky garden with its very first sky cinema.
According to market experts, demand in the affordable condominium market [under $70,000] should remain strong – while the higher-end market may begin to drop over the next few years due to oversupply concerns.
