Overview
Circle Rein Sukhumvit 12 is a boutique low-rise condominium that embodies the "Reinvented Living" philosophy of its developer. Completed in 2016 by Fragrant Property, this 8-storey building is tucked away in the residential part of Sukhumvit Soi 12, offering a sanctuary of quiet and green living just steps away from the chaotic energy of the Asoke-Nana intersection.
Consistent with the "Circle" brand identity, the project focuses heavily on sustainability and eco-technology. It was designed to provide a "resort-like" atmosphere in the city center, utilizing natural materials, energy-saving systems, and a layout that promotes natural light and ventilation.
Developer
Fragrant Property Co., Ltd. is a specialist developer known for integrating high-tech green solutions into luxury real estate. Circle Rein is part of their successful "Circle" series (alongside Circle Living Prototype), targeting buyers who want boutique exclusivity without sacrificing the technical sophistication of a mega-tower.
Location & Transit

The Soi 12 Advantage: Sukhumvit Soi 12 is a "dead-end" soi for cars, which significantly reduces through-traffic and noise. However, it features a pedestrian walkway that connects through to Benjakitti Park, making it one of the best locations for joggers and nature lovers in the CBD.
Nearby Landmarks
- Korean Town (Sukhumvit Plaza) โ 300m (A hub for authentic dining and late-night snacks).
- Terminal 21 Asoke โ 600m (One of Bangkok's most famous shopping and transit hubs).
- Benjakitti Park โ 900m (Accessible via the back of the soi, offering a massive green lung and lake).
- Times Square Building โ 450m (Office and retail complex).
Unit Types
Units are designed with a "New York Loft" aesthetic, featuring clean lines and functional built-ins.
| Type | Size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 25 โ 30 sqm | Compact but feels airy due to large windows. |
| 1 Bedroom | 30 โ 55 sqm | Most Popular. Larger units feature walk-in closets. |
| 2 Bedroom | 70 โ 105 sqm | Rare boutique units with large balconies. |
Interior Note: The project uses Double Glazed Windows, which is a high-end feature for a low-rise. This provides superior soundproofing and keeps the units significantly cooler, reducing electricity costs.
Facilities
- Rooftop Saltwater Pool: A private, scenic pool area that gets plenty of sun and offers views of the surrounding low-rise gardens.
- Sky Gym: A modern fitness center located on the top floor with floor-to-ceiling glass.
- Eco-Features: The building collects condensation from air conditioning units to water the common area plants, a signature Fragrant Property innovation.
Pros
- Quiet Privacy โ One of the quietest locations in the Asoke area.
- Building Quality โ High-spec materials like double-glazing and smart-home features.
- Low Density โ Only 122 units means no crowded elevators or noisy hallways.
- Park Access โ The "secret" access to Benjakitti Park is a major lifestyle perk.
Cons
- Automated Parking โ Retrieval times can take 3-5 minutes during peak morning hours.
- Soi Environment โ Soi 12 is somewhat narrow; walking during a heavy rainstorm can be difficult due to lack of covered sidewalks.
- Resale Price โ Because it is a boutique luxury build, the price per square meter remains higher than older high-rises in the area.
Best For
- Park Lovers โ Who want daily access to Benjakitti Park.
- Expats โ Who work in the Asoke/Sathorn CBD but hate the noise of the main road.
- Sustainability Seekers โ Who appreciate green building technology and lower utility footprints.
The Bottom Line
In 2026, Circle Rein Sukhumvit 12 stands out as a "hidden gem" for those who find the massive Sukhumvit towers too impersonal. It offers a refined, tech-forward, and environmentally conscious lifestyle in one of the city's most central locations. If you value peace and quiet but still want to be within 7 minutes of the BTS, this is a top-tier choice.
