SORRY ! RENTED ;Inner City Country Estate @ $1500 pcm

Behind the gates awaits...........

This is without a doubt the most impressive spread we have seen in 3 years looking at properties. In a quiet corner of Toul Tom Pong ( Russian Market ), this expansive retreat is more Country Estate than Phnom Penh villa. Designed by an expatriated Khmer and built only 1.5 years ago, the house is completely western in style and offers the family of 4-6 a fantastic opportunity to live somewhere special. With a huge wall hiding what lies inside and an end of a cul-de-sac location eradicating any through traffic, it is in a great location.

Main House

After taking in the huge park like gardens with plenty of green lawn for the kids and a driveway just made for biking, you will notice the BBQ / chill out cabana, the pond, the large open garage and the second residence which has 2 bedrooms,a storeroom and a bathroom. This would be perfect for either teenagers,staff or a separated office and guest bedroom.
