Hong Kong’s Swire Properties And Thailand’s City Realty Unveil Upper House Branded Residences
City Dynamic, a joint venture between Thai property developer City Realty and Hong Kong’s Swire Properties, has recently launched Upper House Residences Bangkok and The Wireless Residences by Upper House. This marks the debut of the world’s first Upper House-branded residences, expanding the renowned hospitality label into the realm of luxury residential living.
Established in 2008 by Swire Hotels, the Upper House brand is synonymous with refined design, exceptional service, and understated luxury. This venture into branded residences is a significant milestone in the brand’s evolution and a testament to Bangkok’s growing appeal as a global luxury destination.
Take pleasure in the tranquil surroundings of Sembawang Road EC, perfect for nature enthusiasts. Embrace the convenience of having numerous green spaces and recreational spots just a stone’s throw away. Sembawang Park, Lower Seletar Reservoir, and the picturesque Mandai area are all easily accessible, making it an ideal location for those who love to be close to nature. With Sembawang Road EC, you can truly immerse yourself in the beauty of the outdoors.
Located on Wireless Road, one of the most prestigious areas in the city, these two freehold residential towers are within walking distance from five-star hotels, premier shopping destinations, international schools, and embassies. They also offer stunning panoramic views of Lumphini and Benjakitti parks.
For those looking to invest in overseas properties, there are various projects available for sale around the world.
Construction is set to commence in April 2025, with completion targeted for 2030. The architecture of the project will be led by Foster + Partners (Thailand) Ltd. and the landscape design will be handled by Bangkok-based PLandscape.
The 52-storey Upper House Residences Bangkok will feature 156 units, with interiors designed by BAR Studio and wellness amenities developed in collaboration with global specialist GOCO. The 71-storey The Wireless Residences by Upper House will have 239 units, with interiors by PIA Interior and front-of-house services managed by Upper House.
Co-managing director of City Dynamic, Thomas Woolsey, states that this collaboration builds on Swire Properties’ legacy of landmark residential developments such as Opus Hong Kong and Eden Singapore. He also adds, “This exciting development offers buyers the opportunity to own the next masterpiece in Swire’s portfolio.”
Swire Hotels currently operates six Upper House properties in Hong Kong, Mainland China, and the United States, including hotels in Hong Kong, Chengdu, and Shanghai – with the latter two being rebranded from The Temple House and The Middle House as part of a unified global brand identity. There are also five additional Upper House hotels in various stages of development in cities across China and Japan.
The chief commercial officer of Swire Hotels, Toby Smith, describes the Bangkok project as “a milestone that heralds a new chapter” for the brand. He explains, “It extends Upper House’s award-winning hospitality into residential living and sets the stage for our next phase of international expansion.”
With a perfect blend of world-class design, freehold ownership, and bespoke hospitality, Upper House Residences Bangkok and The Wireless Residences by Upper House are set to redefine luxury living in the Thai capital. They are poised to set a new benchmark for branded residences in Southeast Asia.
