On Nut: Discover the Charm of One of Bangkok’s Most Livable Neighborhoods

BY Bridge Estate

Long popular with local residents, On Nut is a neighborhood that has seen impressive growth in the last few years. This recent surge in popularity is attributed to a number of factors including lower property prices, easy access to central Bangkok and the surrounding suburbs, and a variety of desirable shopping, education and dining options.

With its convenient location, affordability and vicinity to local and international amenities, it is easy to see why On Nut is considered one of Bangkok’s most livable neighborhoods.

Convenient Location
When it comes to location, On Nut is extremely well-connected. With On Nut BTS Skytrain station within walking distance, those in the area are just minutes away from downtown Bangkok’s central business and commercial districts. Not to mention the convenience of the BTS means less time spent sitting in rush hour traffic.

For those who prefer to drive or take local transportation, On Nut also has access to a number of major highways and thoroughfares. Head into the city center via car, local bus, motorbike or taxi on Sukhumvit Road, Bangkok’s main artery, which is right at your doorstep. Or connect easily to Bang Na Trad Road, Chalong Rat Expressway or Sirat Expressway for trips outside the city. These roads also connect to Bangkok’s two international airports – both of which are less than 30 kilometers away.

In the mood for a stroll? On Nut is also well-known for its pedestrian accessibility. Everything you need – supermarkets, shopping, restaurants, schools, transportation, spas, the cinema, fitness – is within walking distance.

Education is Key
Whether you are looking to move with your family, are planning to start a family or are simply looking to invest in the property market, a property’s access to top schools and education is a major factor to consider.

Centrally located between downtown and the suburbs, On Nut is situated within 10 kilometers of some of Bangkok’s most sought after international primary and secondary schools. These include Bangkok Patana School, St. Andrew’s International School, Bangkok Prep, NIST International School, Ekkamai International School, Anglo-Singapore International School and Wells International School.

In addition to these schools, this neighborhood also offers convenient access to local Thai schools, tutoring centers, language schools and other educational enrichment opportunities for both children and adults.

Shop ‘Til You Drop
On Nut has no shortage of shopping, with community malls, grocery stores and local markets within easy reach. Walk to Tops Market at Century The Movie Plaza Sukhumvit or Tesco Lotus On Nut, where you will have access to restaurants, small shops, food courts, a supermarket and more.

For a more food and shopping options, visit Habito Mall or People Park Community Mall, both 1 kilometer from On Nut BTS station. Or for higher-end retail options, head into the city center where famed malls like EmQuartier, Central Embassy, CentralwOrld and Siam Paragon attract throngs of shoppers every day.

Heading away from downtown, the On Nut neighborhood is also just minutes away from Seacon Square, Mega Bangna and a mere 4 kilometers from The Bangkok Mall – an upcoming commercial project that is set to be one of the largest of its kind in the city.

Eat, Drink . . .
When it comes to eating, drinking and entertainment, On Nut has something for everyone. Caffeine addicts and instagrammers alike will fall in love with the variety of cafés and coffee houses in the area. These include local mainstays like Oh La La Café and Beans & Booze, as well as the more refined LAFF Café and DNA Coffee.

For stronger drinks and bigger food menus, the options are just as plentiful. Beacon Place, located within walking distance of On Nut BTS, is home to a collection of affordable local and international venues, including Cheap Charlie’s, Easy Burger, Rolling Stone and Fifty-Fifty Bar. Just up the street is Oak Wine Valley for those seeking a nice red or white to end the day.

Looking for even more variety? Make your way to the W District in Phra Khanong – a favorite gathering place for locals and expats and only one stop away from On Nut by Skytrain. Choose from a plethora of food stands and restaurants or head to Cielo for a high-end dining experience with a view of skyline. Nearby Goja Bar provides great cocktails accompanied by a roster of resident DJs spinning your favorite tracks until late.

. . . And Be Merry
On Nut has a rich and vibrant energy that caters to everyone. In addition to eating, drinking and shopping, there is always something to do within the neighborhood and its surrounding areas, including many outdoor activities. Get a glimpse of local life by riding the Phra Khanong Khlong Ban Pa Ferry, a local longtail boat that winds through the city’s famed canals; rent a bike and explore the greenery in nearby Bang Kachao (the Green Lung); or visit Rama IX Park for an afternoon picnic and stroll through Bangkok’s largest park.
