Overview
StarView is the ultimate "River View for Drivers" building on Rama III. Completed in 2013 by Eastern Star, it offers massive units with unobstructed views of the Chao Phraya River at prices significantly lower than Charoen Krung or Sathorn riverside options.
With 488 units across two towers, it features some of the largest family-sized condos available, including 4-bedroom duplexes that rival small houses in floor area.
