Overview
Chapter Charoennakhon-Riverside is the new "cool kid" on the river. Completed in 2022 by Pruksa, it brings a modern, minimalist design (with hints of industrial chic) to the Charoen Nakhon strip. It consists of two 45-storey residential towers and a separate low-rise facility building.
With 669 units, almost every unit is angled to maximize river views. It is famous for its Active Riverfront Lifestyle, featuring a private pier and shuttle boat that connects residents to the BTS and ICONSIAM, making it a highly connected riverside option.
Developer
Pruksa is a mass-market giant, but their "Chapter" brand targets the younger, design-conscious premium segment. This project is widely considered their "Masterpiece," with finishing qualities (common areas, lobby design) that exceed their usual standards.
Location & Transit
Charoen Nakhon is booming thanks to ICONSIAM.
| Station | Line | Distance | 🚤 Boat |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sathorn Pier (BTS) | Silom | By Boat | 5 min |
| ICONSIAM Pier | Gold | By Boat | 5 min |
Commute Logistics: The private boat is the primary mode of transport. It runs on a schedule, taking residents across to Saphan Taksin (for CBD access) or upriver to ICONSIAM.
Nearby Landmarks
- ICONSIAM — 1.5km (Bangkok's premier mall).
- Shrewsbury International School — Accessible via private boat transfer (very popular for students).
- Asiatique — Directly across the river (visible from units).
Unit Types
| Type | Size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 25.10 sqm | Compact, city-facing units. |
| 1 Bedroom | 32 – 34 sqm | River view options available; very popular rental. |
| 2 Bedroom | 49 – 79 sqm | The signature units; usually occupy river-facing corners. |
Facilities
The River Club:
- Pool: A stunning pool right by the water's edge, not on a podium, giving a true "resort" feel.
- Lounge: A beautifully designed co-kitchen and reading area that looks out over the Chao Phraya.
Rooftop:
- Sky Lounge: High-altitude observation decks on the residential towers.
Pros
- Riverfront Value — Significant lower price point than "The River" or "Banyan Tree" but with similar views.
- Boat Service — Bypassing Bangkok traffic via boat is a massive lifestyle perk.
- Design — The aesthetic is very current (minimalist luxury).
- ICONSIAM Proximity — Close enough to enjoy, far enough to avoid the traffic jam.
Cons
- Unit Size — 2-bedrooms starting at 49 sqm is quite small for a luxury riverside property.
- Road Traffic — Charoen Nakhon Road can be gridlocked on weekends.
- No Pets
The Bottom Line
Chapter Charoennakhon-Riverside is the "Young Riverside" choice. It isn't stuffy or old-fashioned. It's for the 30-something professional or young family who wants the romance of the river with modern, compact efficiency.
