Cape Heights

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Cape Heights is a low-density residential development situated in Cape Yamu, one of Phuket's most established waterfront neighborhoods on the island's northern peninsula. Completed in 2005, the project comprises just 5 villas, reflecting a deliberately restrained development approach that prioritizes privacy and space over density. This scarcity of units has positioned Cape Heights as a niche option for affluent buyers seeking a residence within an established, family-oriented zone.

Each villa in the project comes with dedicated car parking and 24-hour security, essential amenities for high-net-worth property owners. The singular active listing in our current catalog is priced at 48 million baht, establishing the entry point for this product category within the development. Cape Yamu itself has evolved into a preferred address for international homeowners, with a notable contingent of Australian, Scandinavian, and British expatriates drawn to its proximity to reputable schools, private healthcare facilities, and upscale dining establishments. The zone sits approximately 10 kilometers northeast of central Patong, accessible yet distinctly removed from the commercial density of the main tourist corridor.

The villa-only configuration and completion date lend Cape Heights relevance primarily to the owner-occupancy market rather than speculative trading, though resale transactions within low-unit-count projects tend to command sustained premiums over time. Properties in Cape Yamu demonstrate resilience in rental performance during peak season, with monthly rates for single-family villas ranging between 150,000 and 250,000 baht for short-term tourist lets, though long-term tenant placement has become increasingly competitive. Prospective buyers should note that villas of this vintage and location typically appeal to long-term residential purchasers or owners with multi-year ownership horizons rather than those seeking a quick turnaround. The zone's stability and limited turnover suggest that Cape Heights buyers should approach acquisition with expectations of modest capital growth alongside sustainable rental yield potential.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Cape Heights — buyer FAQ

Can foreigners own a villa at Cape Heights in Cape Yamu?

Cape Heights villas sit on Thai land, so foreign buyers cannot own the land outright. The usual legal routes are a registered 30-year leasehold or a Thai company that holds the land, while the building can be foreign-owned. Always confirm the exact structure with a qualified Thai property lawyer before purchase.

Where is Cape Heights located on Phuket?

Cape Heights is on the Cape Yamu (Laem Yamu) headland in the Pa Khlok area on Phuket's north-east coast. It is a quiet, low-density enclave near Ao Po Grand Marina and the COMO Point Yamu resort, facing the calm waters and island views of Phang Nga Bay rather than the west-coast surf beaches.

How far is Cape Heights from the airport, Phuket Town and Patong beach?

From Cape Heights, Phuket International Airport is roughly 25 to 30 minutes by road and Phuket Town about 30 minutes. The nearest classic swimming and surf beaches, such as Patong, are on the opposite west coast and reached by cross-island road, so they are a longer drive from this north-east headland.

Is Cape Heights a completed development?

Yes, Cape Heights is a completed villa and house development in Cape Yamu, so buyers are purchasing finished homes rather than off-plan units. Current availability is on the resale market, meaning you buy an existing villa from an owner rather than directly from a developer sales launch.

Who is Cape Heights best suited to?

Cape Heights suits privacy-focused buyers, boat owners and families who want a calm, spacious bay-view home near Phuket's marinas rather than a west-coast beach-nightlife base. The Cape Yamu setting favours serene living, mangroves and Phang Nga Bay views, appealing to those prioritising quiet, space and easy access to the airport and town.
