1 Bedroom Condo for Rent at Life Sukhumvit 62, Bang Chak

Life Sukhumvit 62 has a one-bedroom unit available to rent at 14,000 THB per month. It sits on the 22nd floor of this Sukhumvit-line high-rise, just off Soi Sukhumvit 62 in Bang Chak. The building is close enough to BTS Bang Chak that car-free living is genuinely practical here, not just a line in an advert. The unit itself is a compact 30 sq.m. layout, suited to a single tenant or a couple who want a quiet base with fast access into the city.

The Unit

This is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom condo with a separate living room, rather than an open-plan studio. That separation matters more than the small floor area suggests. The living room takes the sofa, the television and the day-to-day activity; the bedroom stays a dedicated space for sleeping and storage, closed off rather than visible from the front door. A single bathroom serves the unit. Being on the 22nd floor of a 24-storey building, both rooms look out over the surrounding rooftops of Bang Chak rather than into a neighbouring wall, and floors this high tend to pick up more daylight and less street noise than units lower down the same block.

Life Sukhumvit 62 was built with several floor plans, from studios up to larger one-bedroom-plus and two-bedroom units. This particular layout sits toward the compact end of that range, which is reflected in the rent being asked for it. Storage is limited by the size, so tenants used to larger Bangkok apartments should plan for a more minimal approach to belongings than they might be used to.

Furnishing and Appliances

A television is already fitted, so the tenant is not moving into a bare shell. The owner's listing does not itemise every piece of furniture, so anyone interested should confirm the full inventory at viewing. What is confirmed:

• Television

• Living room with sofa seating area

• Separate bedroom

Building Facilities

For a mid-rise Sukhumvit condo, the shared amenities here are fairly complete. There is a communal swimming pool and a fitness room for daily exercise. A sauna is available for residents who want more than a basic gym offers, and a landscaped garden area softens what would otherwise be a purely urban footprint. A co-working space gives residents somewhere to work outside their own unit. Security runs 24 hours a day with CCTV across the common areas, and there is on-site car parking for residents who drive.

• Swimming Pool

• Fitness Room

• Sauna

• Garden

• Co-working Space

• 24-hour Security & CCTV

• Car Park

The Building

Life Sukhumvit 62 was developed by AP (Thailand) Public Company Limited and completed in November 2019. It rises 24 floors and holds 438 units, a large enough resident base to keep the facilities active without ever feeling crowded. The design favours a natural, understated material palette over a flashy façade — fairly typical of AP's Life-branded developments elsewhere along the Sukhumvit corridor. The same developer built Life Sukhumvit 48 and Life Udomsuk further down the same BTS line.

Beyond the pool, gym, sauna and garden, there is also a rooftop common area and a separate multi-purpose room residents can book for private use. Between the two, tenants have somewhere to work, socialise or just get some air above street level, without leaving the building. With 438 units sharing these spaces, residents will occasionally find the pool or gym busier at weekends and in the early evening, though a building of this size rarely feels overcrowded on a weekday morning.

The Neighbourhood

The single biggest advantage of this address is BTS Bang Chak, around 100 metres from the building, a two-minute walk rather than a proper commute. Bang Chak sits on the Sukhumvit Line, so there is direct access without changing trains: On Nut, Phra Khanong and Ekkamai in one direction, Thong Lo, Asok and the Siam interchange in the other. From Siam or Asok, the rest of the BTS and MRT network opens up.

Tesco Lotus and Big C both have branches around On Nut, one stop up the line, and there are convenience stores and local eateries within a few minutes' walk of the building itself, several right along Soi Sukhumvit 62. For a bigger shopping trip, Gateway Ekkamai and the newer Bangkok Mall are a short BTS ride away. The Emporium and EmQuartier malls in Phrom Phong are reachable in around fifteen minutes without changing lines. Families weighing up schools will find Wells International School and Anglo Singapore International School both within roughly a kilometre and a bit — an easy short taxi ride, not a cross-town trip. Sukhumvit Hospital and Kluaynamthai Hospital are both a few BTS stops away on the same line. Anyone working in Bangkok's newer digital and creative office clusters will also find True Digital Park at Whizdom 101 within easy reach, down the line at Punnawithi.

Drivers benefit too. The nearby Chalong Rat Expressway is faster than surface roads for reaching either the inner city or Suvarnabhumi Airport at the far end of town. For anyone without a car, ride-hailing apps work well in this part of Sukhumvit, and the short walk to the BTS means most tenants find they rarely need one anyway.

Who This Suits

A single professional or a couple who commute daily will get the most from this unit, since the trade-off for the short walk to BTS Bang Chak is a compact 30 square metre footprint rather than a spacious one. It also suits anyone using Bangkok as a secondary base, who wants low-maintenance living without a large unit to furnish and manage. It suits fewer people who need a home office, or who plan to work from the unit itself rather than the building's co-working space — there simply isn't the room. Tenants who value the pool, gym and sauna over sheer floor space will find good value here. Those who want more square metres than location should look further along the line, towards Punnawithi or Udom Suk, where larger units rent for similar money. And because the owner is asking for a one-year minimum term, this suits tenants planning to stay put rather than those wanting a short, rolling lease.

Getting Around

BTS Bang Chak (E10) anchors this address. The whole Sukhumvit Line is within immediate reach, with no connecting bus and no long walk to the platform. From Bang Chak, it's a direct ride to On Nut, Phra Khanong, Ekkamai and Thong Lo, and onward to Asok, where the line meets the MRT Blue Line for journeys across the city. In the other direction, Siam — the interchange for the Silom Line — is well under half an hour away. By car, the Chalong Rat Expressway nearby offers a quicker route into the centre, or out to Suvarnabhumi Airport, than relying on Sukhumvit Road's surface traffic.

The Offer
