About Project
Hailing from veteran property developer "Raimon Land" (The River), The Lofts Ekkamai is conveniently located nearby key amenities such as the Sukhumvit Hospital and the Ekkamai BTS station. Furthermore, its location right by the Sukhumvit road proves to be incredibly beneficial to drivers due to not being required to take constant twists and turns into a deep alley in order to reach the project.
The project features one high-rise building standing 28 stories tall within 1-3-83 rai of plot area and a total of 263 units. While space may sound limited at first glance, this project makes up for it in supreme residential peacefulness for its tenants and residents thanks to each floor containing only 13-15 units.
This project boasts a modern minimalist design and aesthetic, with subtle touches of green interspersed throughout the facilities. The overall effect is one of relaxation and tranquility, welcoming residents and tenants with open arms. Of the four types of units available to choose from, ranging from 28 to 150 square meters in size, are Studio, 1 Bedroom, 2 Bedroom, and Loft Suite units.
Facilities
- Infinity Edge Pool (With Jacuzzi)
Situated on the rooftop floor, the salt-chlorinated swimming pool is an ideal spot for residents to take a dip day or night. The pool also boasts a built-in jacuzzi that periodically activates for added enjoyment.
- Fitness
The gym, located just behind the swimming pool, offers an unobstructed view of the pool area through its large windows. Inside, residents can find a diverse selection of fitness equipment ranging from weights to cardio gear. Additionally, the sauna is located in close proximity to the gym for added convenience.
- Garden with barbecue area
Found on the rooftop floor alongside the swimming pool and gym, the garden is split into two distinct areas. The first zone is situated beside the swimming pool, where residents can take a leisurely stroll or enjoy some peaceful downtime amidst towering walls that feature a unique slit design, allowing for optimal airflow. The second garden zone may be smaller, but it includes a convenient sink for tenants and residents to wash up after hosting a barbecue in the nearby area.
- Co-Working Space
Adjacent to the gym is the generously sized and comfortable Co-Working Space, which boasts plenty of natural light and a warm, predominantly orange interior that's perfect for reading. Whether you require a quiet place to work, study, or attend an online meeting, the co-working space has got you covered. Plus, the icing on the cake is the stunning view of the city and neighboring swimming pool.
Highlights
- Conveniently located, only 150m away from BTS Ekkamai station and accessible just from driving in the Sukhumvit road.
- Full of amenities all around.
- Residential peacefulness.

If you're in the market for a one-bedroom apartment, then you might want to consider units 1A and 1B in our building. Measuring up to 45 square meters, these units are located on the South or East side of the building, which means they're shielded from excessive sunlight and humidity.
Upon entering the unit, you'll be greeted by the kitchen and living area. The kitchen features a long counter against the wall and a dining table with four seats opposite it. Meanwhile, the living area is equipped with a TV, sofa, mat, and table, and opens up to a small balcony.
Heading back towards the kitchen, you'll find a door on the left that leads to the bedroom. Here, you'll also find a bathroom, complete with a dry and wet zone. The bedroom is spacious enough to fit a large bed and includes a built-in wardrobe.
It's worth noting that the balcony in this unit is smaller than in other units. However, this is because the project has prioritized adding extra space to the bedroom.
