Vue Aston set to open simultaneously with bridge connecting Koh Pich and Koh Norea


Vue Aston set to open simultaneously with bridge connecting Koh Pich and Koh Norea

According to Mr. Du Sangnam, Vice President of Cambodia Overseas China-Cambodia Investment Corporation (OCIC), the cable-stayed bridge connecting Diamond Island and Koh Norea Development Zone officially commenced in October 2020. The entire construction period is expected to take 32 months and cost about 50 million USD.

The cable-stayed bridge is reported to be 500 meters long and 24.5 meters wide, all designed in Khmer style. In addition to connecting the two satellite cities, the cable-stayed bridge will also connect to National Highway No. 1 to ease traffic congestion.

OCIC initially proposed to build 2 different projects: an underwater tunnel and a water bridge. Plans were changed, however, when it was considered that another cable bridge can stand as a testament to the developing scenery in Phnom Penh.

The new bridge is expected to significantly reduce travel times to and from the Phnom Penh city center. The riverside area, consequently, might see an increase in foot traffic as the area becomes more accessible to more people in the city.

Additionally, linking Diamond Island and Chbar Ampov would easily increase the residential and commercial value of both districts. The satellite city being also developed in Chbar Ampov is expected to drive a new surge in prices and investments upon completion. Vue Aston is in an enviable location as its already promising residential offerings are only made even better by the high-value infrastructure soon coming to Chbar Ampov. 

——After completion, the average price of the Vue Aston will be $2380, and the down payment will be as low as 5%! The project provides charter services, with an annual rental return of 5%-9% (increasing year by year).

——Full payment, mortgage, installment, and multiple payment methods are available, effectively using capital leverage to obtain maximum returns.

Vue Aston, the next “Tomson Yipin”

Vue Aston rises in the middle of everything any property seeker/investors look for. One side, it has luxury residences for great prices, and on the other, a gradually developing environment specifically designed for long-term residential and commercial developments; a testament to Chbar Ampov’s status as an up-and-coming district in Phnom Penh.

Vue Aston sits at a waterfront scenery and certainly delivers on a residence built around it. The project pursues high-quality living and satisfies the increasingly sophisticated taste of Cambodian buyers. Vue Aston is already being touted as a choice for urban elites looking to live a luxury lifestyle outside the hustle and bustle of the city center.

At the convergence of riches and rivers

Vue Aston’s location was carefully selected by the Peninsula Capital to offer magnificent views of the majestic Tonle Bassac and Mekong Rivers. Such a waterfront landscape, complemented by massive infrastructure developments, makes it a prime property that’s only going to see continued appreciation as time goes by. Vue Aston offers a magnificent feeling in more ways than one.

Vue Aston’s comforts don’t simply stop within Phom Penh. In a recent agreement by Cambodian and Vietnamese transport authorities, the involved agencies will be facilitating the building of a joint highway project called, “Hi Chi Minh City-Phnom Penh Highway”. Once the project is completed, it is expected that it will only take Vue Aston residents a mere 2 hours to get to Ho Chi Minh!

If the Vue Aston’s surrounding developments and prime amenities aren’t enough to convince you of its residential value, then this massive undertaking between two countries will!
