ABOUT THE PROJECT

Overview

Sawara Residence is a completed residential project in Rawai, on the southern tip of Phuket island, finished in 2008. It offers buyers an established, move-in-ready home in one of Phuket's most lived-in coastal neighbourhoods, within easy reach of both Rawai Beach and Nai Harn Beach. As a finished development it carries no construction risk, and its mature setting suits owners who want a real Phuket community rather than an off-plan promise.

Property & developer

Sawara Residence was delivered by an independent Phuket developer and completed in 2008, making it a settled property with proven build quality and surroundings you can inspect in person. The project offers a range of residential layouts suited to owner-occupiers and long-term investors. Because it is fully built, prospective buyers can view the actual home, finishes and shared areas before committing, and assess the genuine condition of an established address rather than relying on renders or projections.

Location & Rawai lifestyle

Sawara Residence sits in Rawai, the southern district of Phuket prized for its laid-back, year-round local community and proximity to several beaches. Rawai Beach and the celebrated Nai Harn Beach are both within a short drive, while everyday infrastructure is excellent: fresh seafood markets, international schools, clinics, cafes, gyms and the popular waterfront promenade. Rawai connects easily to Chalong, Kata and the wider island road network, balancing seaside calm with practical day-to-day living.

Investment & ownership

Foreigners can own property at Sawara Residence through the legal structures common across Phuket: condominium units may be held freehold within the building's foreign-ownership quota, while houses and villas are typically secured via leasehold or a Thai company structure for the land. Phuket's resale market remains active, with 5,400+ listings across 15 zones, and Rawai's established demand supports completed homes well. Buyers should always confirm the exact title and ownership route for any specific unit with qualified legal advice.
