The Bottom Line
In 2026, Le Rich Ratchada-Sutthisan remains a solid "Hidden Gem" for the practical renter. It is ideal for office workers who want to minimize their commute and rental expenses without sacrificing the convenience of being next to the MRT. It lacks the "wow factor" of a luxury high-rise, but it delivers unbeatable value and quiet privacy in a bustling district.
Overview
Le Rich Ratchada-Sutthisan is a boutique low-rise condominium located in a quiet sub-soi (Soi Thanom Chit) just off the main Sutthisan Winitchai Road. Completed in 2011 by Richy Place 2002, this 8-storey building offers a highly private living environment with only 79 units in total.
The project is a favorite among budget-conscious professionals who work in the nearby Muang Thai Phatra Complex or along the MRT Blue Line. Its key selling point is the balance of privacy and accessibility: it is tucked away from the noise of the main road but remains a comfortable 4-minute walk to MRT Sutthisan (Exit 3). Unlike the high-density towers on the main road, Le Rich offers a simpler, community-focused atmosphere with lower rental rates.
Developer
Richy Place 2002 PCL is an established developer known for focusing on transit-oriented developments ("Rich Park" series). Le Rich was one of their earlier boutique projects, prioritizing functional layouts and durable construction over flashy facilities.
Location & Transit
| Station | Line | Distance | Mode |
|---|---|---|---|
| MRT Sutthisan | Blue Line | 250m | Walk (4 min) |
| Sutthisan Rd | Main Road | 50m | Walk (1 min) |
| Vibhavadi Rd | Highway | 1.2km | Car (5 min) |
Commute Logistics:
- Walk: The walk to MRT Sutthisan is safe and straightforward via Soi Thanom Chit. The alley is residential and less chaotic than the main Ratchada intersections.
- Car: The location offers a strategic "back door" escape. Residents can drive west towards Vibhavadi Rangsit Road to access the tollway to the airport, bypassing the often-gridlocked Ratchada-Rama 9 route.
