The Unique at Nimman (Building 2)

Overview

The Unique at Nimman (Building 2) is the even more exclusive sibling to Building 1, located just 45 meters further down Soi Suk Kasem. Completed in late 2014, it took the "Smart Lanna" concept of its predecessor and refined it for a smaller, more private community. With only 40 units, it is one of the lowest-density luxury buildings in the entire Nimman area.

It is particularly famous among the digital nomad community for its clever use of space. Many units were designed with integrated Murphy beds (fold-down beds) and extendable dining/work tables, allowing a 49 sqm apartment to function with the utility of a much larger home.

Developer

Ten Thai Development (also known as Tareena Property) specialized in this "Unique" series to target buyers who wanted the luxury of the Old City's The Unique at Koomuang but in the trendy Nimman district. Building 2 is often cited for its double-thickness walls, which provide superior thermal insulation and noise proofing compared to the more common, thinner partitions found in mass-market condos.

Location & Transit

Building 2 shares the "Quiet-Central" benefits of Building 1 but sits slightly further from the main road noise.

Tip: Suk Kasem is a one-way street. While you enter from Nimman, you can exit toward Siri Mangkalajarn Road, which is home to some of the best local breakfast spots (like Gao Kafe) and provides a traffic-free route to the north of the city.

Pros

• Extreme Privacy - With only 40 units, the building feels like a private residence. You will rarely wait for an elevator.
• Smart Storage & Murphy Beds - The built-in storage solutions and fold-down beds are unique to this project and perfect for those who work from home.
• High-End Kitchens - Unlike most Thai condos, units here often include ovens and dishwashers as standard or integrated options.
• Quiet Living - It is far enough down the soi to avoid the nightly music and chatter of the main Nimman artery.

Cons

• Shady Pool - Because it is a low-rise surrounded by other buildings, the pool receives limited direct sunlight; it can be quite chilly for morning swims.
• Compact Gym - The fitness center is well-equipped but very small; it feels crowded with more than two people.
• One-Way Access - The one-way traffic on Soi Suk Kasem can make Grab pick-ups or grocery deliveries slightly more complicated if the driver misses the turn.
• Strictly No Pets

Best For

• Minimalist Digital Nomads - Who love the "everything in its place" utility of the Murphy beds and hidden storage.
• Solo Travelers - Who value the ultra-high security (G4S and smart locks) in a quiet, boutique setting.
• Tech Enthusiasts - Who appreciate the integrated automation and smart home features.

The Bottom Line

The Unique Nimman 2 is "The Optimized Sanctuary." It is arguably the most intelligently designed building in Nimman for those who live and work in the same space. It trades the social buzz and large pools of the bigger complexes for extreme privacy and high-tech utility. If you can find a vacancy here, it represents the absolute peak of boutique apartment living in Chiang Mai.
