The Base Height

ABOUT THE PROJECT

The Base Height is a 14-storey condominium development completed in 2015 by Sansiri, positioned within Phuket Town's established residential and commercial district. The project comprises 358 units across 4,168 square metres, offering a mid-rise urban living solution in Thailand's primary island entry point.

Located in Phuket Town rather than the coastal tourist strips, The Base Height occupies a fundamentally different market position. This zone functions as the administrative and service hub for the island, hosting government offices, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and the ferry terminal to Phang Nga. The project's proximity to these infrastructure anchors differentiates it from beachfront developments targeting holiday purchasers. Current active listings in the project range between ฿2.7 million and ฿2.8 million, reflecting the secondary-market pricing typical of town-centre condominiums built nearly a decade ago.

Amenities reflect a residential rather than resort-oriented brief: communal pool, kids pool, outdoor kids zone, communal garden, gym, car parking, and hotel-managed services. The hotel management component suggests the developer positioned units for mixed-use revenue potential, though the relatively modest amenity specification indicates cost-conscious design rather than luxury positioning.

The hotel management designation carries specific weight for investor analysis. Phuket Town properties marketed with management services often target domestic Thai buyers and regional investors seeking rental income from business travellers, government workers, and intermediate-stay clients rather than short-term tourist income. This differs substantially from beachfront developments where nightly rates and seasonal occupancy patterns dominate yield calculations. The base pricing tier—now mid-range relative to newer downtown projects—reflects the 2015 completion date, positioning it primarily as a stable residential and long-term rental option rather than a speculative development-cycle opportunity.

For buyers evaluating Phuket Town assets, The Base Height represents the established rental-market segment where long-term occupancy and steady demand from local professionals and expats are sustained by the zone's urban amenities and central location. The managed services framework and town-centre location indicate suitability for investors prioritizing stable cash flow over capital gains in a secondary rather than primary tourist corridor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

The Base Height — buyer FAQ

Can foreigners own a condo freehold at The Base Height?

Yes. As a registered condominium, units at The Base Height can be held on a full freehold title by foreign buyers within the building's 49% foreign-ownership quota. This is the most straightforward ownership route in Thailand for overseas purchasers and keeps both the initial purchase and any future resale clean and simple.

Where is The Base Height located in Phuket?

The Base Height sits in Phuket Town, the island's inland administrative and commercial capital on the south-east coast. It is an urban district built around the Sino-Portuguese Old Town, malls, hospitals and offices, not a beach zone, making it a practical base for daily life rather than a resort holiday address.

Which beach is nearest to The Base Height?

The closest beaches are on the south-east coast — Chalong, Cape Panwa and Rawai are roughly 15 to 20 minutes south. The classic west-coast sands of Patong, Kata and Karon are about 30 minutes over the hills, while several golf courses lie within an easy drive of the condominium.

Is The Base Height completed and ready to move in?

Yes. The Base Height is a completed condominium, and units currently on the market are resale properties available ready to move into. Buyers are purchasing finished apartments rather than off-plan units, so there is no construction wait and the building and its facilities are already operational.

Who developed The Base Height and who does it suit?

The Base Height was built by Sansiri, one of Thailand's largest and most established listed developers. It suits long-term expat residents, Thai professionals, families and investors who value city convenience, heritage character, hospitals, schools and central island access over a beachfront location in Phuket Town.
