Tennis star buys Samui property 
World Tennis Association number one ranked Female player Justine Henin
has selected an apartment on Koh Samui to be her holiday home in
Thailand.
The Belgian recently picked up a unit in Infinity
Samui, a new gated low rise luxury development on a prominent hillside
position with panoramic ocean views located in the Mae Nam area of Koh
Samui.
The development was recently launched by Savills in Dubai with high levels of interest received.
Commenting
on her purchase, Henin said: “I am delighted to have selected Infinity
Samui for my holiday home in Thailand as the design and stunning ocean
views provide for a truly tropical modern environment.”
Developed
by Infinity Properties, the 65-unit development is due for completion
in mid-2009. It features units ranging in size from 167-406sqm with
prices starting at Bt9.8 million. The first phase is located on the
hilliest part of the site and contains 28 apartments and six
penthouses, some with private pool; others have access to a 1,400 m2
public pool. The second phase consists of 25 spacious apartment villas
and six penthouses, all with private pools nestled in a peaceful
landscape of palm trees and greenery.
“The different phases will
be constructed in such a way that neither the views nor the peace of
the finished properties will be disturbed at any time during the
construction works,” says the developer. “In fact, the first and second
phase will be finished approximately at the same time. The zone in
front of the project is protected from future development.”
Robert
Collins, managing director of Savills (Thailand) Limited, the sole
marketing agents for Infinity Samui, commented: “Justine’s interest in
Koh Samui underscores the high level of demand for holiday homes in
Thailand and is a positive endorsement for the development and the
island.”
