Twin Peaks was unveiled in August 2006 as the first of the Saha Group’s Peaks branded low-rise luxury condos in Chiang Mai. Interestingly, it is an almost replica of their Twin Peaks Residence in Bangkok! Flaunting 
understated modern-contemporary design influences from the Land of the Rising Sun. Despite its now decade-old existence,
Twin Peaks remains not only one of the best managed and well cared for pieces of real estate in the entire municipality but also represents one of the pet-friendly condos in Chiang Mai while occupying an excellent position in the very midst of the city’s Central Business District.
Tucked down a small, private and undisturbed soi off Chang Klan Road in the company of Peaks Garden and Peaks Avenue condos, Twin Peaks does feel a world away from the bustling urban metropolis beyond, yet is mere steps from the epicentre of Chiang Mai’s commercial and financial heartland providing ready access to every possible amenity and convenience.
Facing the condo is “The Peak”, an enclave of four outlets among which, for those in search of a package tour or vehicle hire, is a licensed travel agency. And “Because nothing is too good for you”, adjoining Twin Peaks is the deluxe Peak Spa and Beauty Salon to indulge in any number of therapeutic massage treatments, revitalising scrubs or pampering facials with favourable rates for condo residents! Immediately at the entrance to the soi is a laundrette.
Lying but a 10-minute stroll from Twin Peaks is the near-legendary and timelessly atmospheric Night Bazaar; amongst the oldest and most emblematic of after-dark shopping, dining and entertainment venues in the whole of Thailand and a latter-day legacy of bygone Yunnanese traders who plied mule caravan routes between China and Myanmar, the Night Bazaar.
Home to numerous open-air and indoor restaurants, food courts and market stalls. From there, the eastern fringe of the ’Old City’ with its iconic landmark of Tha Phae Gate is situated just moments away. En route to the Night Bazaar from Twin Peaks stands Pantip Plaza, Northern Thailand’s largest IT and electronics mall now also sheltering a sizeable Big C supermarket. Under its historical roots, the Chang Klan neighbourhood is populated by a fascinating mix of ethnic minority groups -Tai Yai (Burmese Shan) and Cin Haw (Chinese Muslims) especially- whose cultural presence is evident in the mosques, hilltribe farmers’ markets and halal eateries plentiful throughout the area.
For a more up-to-the-minute retail experience, both of CentralFestival and Central Airport Plaza malls are easily reachable –as are select other destinations within the city- from Twin Peaks by boarding their respective free shuttle bus, which departs several times daily from the nearby five stars Shangri-La Hotel or, adjacent to which, The Astra condo.
CCTV is fitted in all common areas of the property, and admittance to the building itself is controlled by way of a personal-issue electronic keycard. For extra peace of mind, friendly and forthcoming personnel attend the front desk between the hours of 8 AM and 6 PM with a juristic office staffed from 9 AM to 5 PM Monday to Friday, in addition to a qualified technician on standby 24 hours a day.
Around the periphery of the condo are nearly 50 designated car bays with separate parking for motorbikes. Upon entering Twin Peaks is a bright, spacious, chicly outfitted, low-impact lobby complete with a collection of plush cushioned sofas, planted foliage, assorted decorative embellishments, and besides which a modestly-proportioned self-contained meeting facility.
Taking whichever of the stairs or pair of double lifts (elevators) to the second floor reveals a sauna and steam room as well as a respectably sized and eye-catching outdoor swimming pool; surrounding the water’s edge is a wood-panelled sun deck featuring a handful of padded recliners and a gathering of garden furniture backed by verdant tropical vegetation in a setting which exudes a palpable sense of privacy and an ambience of tranquil seclusion.
Flanking the covered walkway on the level above is a fully-equipped gym, a classily presented fan-cooled airy communal lounge with cosy seating, a generous supply of reading material and even a glass dining table and chairs. Shared WiFi is available on-site, or residents can opt to organise their installation of high-speed home broadband through another Internet Service Provider.
Divided between the two interconnected wings of the single building, the 8-storied Twin Peaks incorporates 92 completely furnished, air-conditioned and balconied residential units. Laid out in the form of a space-efficient ‘cubicle’ with an open-plan living/dining/kitchen arrangement, interiors are finished with teak wood flooring while being tastefully –and comfortably- specified to a high standard. Studios are a spacious 44.82 sq m (so a good 13 to 14 sq m bigger than the city average for its kind), 1 bedroom units range from 58.78 to 70.72 sq m, single-floor 2 bedroom units measure 87.80 to 91.37 sq m with duplex suites either of 145.15 or 145.20 sq m while the crème de la crème of rooms, a top floor 3 bedroom executive penthouse –and one of the finest examples in all Chiang Mai- weighs in at a gigantic 300 sq m of habitable space!
An immensely –and deservedly- popular choice of condo for short-stay holiday lets or long-term rental accommodation among westerners of all ages and healthy contingent of Japanese expats, the 49% foreign-owned quota at Twin Peaks was reached unsurprisingly within a matter of weeks of its opening and although re-sale units within the legal allowance do appear on the market from time to time, understandably they’re snapped up promptly!

Perfect Homes
Our family of three stayed in Chiang Mai for two months, needing two bedrooms for our teenage daughter and ourselves, and wanting a modern apartment with gym and pool facilities, within walking distance of the markets and city to make the most of the great food here.
The dream was to enjoy our usual routine and pop out to experience Chiang Mai!
We learned about Twin Peaks in an online blog and immediately contacted Perfect Homes to arrange a booking. Not only were they quick to respond, they understood our needs and provided images and information about the apartment which was available for the time we wanted it.
On arrival we were greeted warmly and shown to the apartment which was exactly as we expected, roomy, bright and modern. The swan towels on the beds made us feel very special too.
We explored the facilities immediately and have since used the gym and pool almost daily. The pool especially has been brilliant during the very hot summer months.
On occasion we required assistance and the onsite team and they have been fantastic, with a fully manned reception happy to provide copy and print services and friendly staff to welcome us each day. The cleaning staff are fun and friendly too, so wonderful to have the beds made and fresh towels three times a week.
All the basic mod cons you need are here, kettle, toaster, microwave, electric hob and a washing machine with drying rack outside on the balcony and TV (which we connected to our laptop to stream movies using a HT connector we brought with us).
We hired scooters during our stay and they have been easily parked and watched over by the capable security team. There is also ample bicycle parking and car parking.
The thing we love the most about Twin Peaks, apart from the fact that it easily became home for us, is it’s location. Situated on a quiet laneway, just off Chang Klan Rd, 5 minutes walk to the Night Bazaar and all the wonderful street food, a 15 minute walk or 5 minute scooter ride to the old city, Moat etc and easy to go in any direction to explore Chiang Mai and surrounds.
We visited the Nimman area, which we had considered an option for accommodation, and are so thankful we chose this side of the city as it’s less pretentious, more family oriented, more locals and hidden away noodle bars and down-to-earth people.
Twin Peaks has been a wonderful home for us while in Chiang Mai, we recommend it highly for no fuss, easy living, within walking distance to everything you need and a quiet spot with great facilities
Hello,
I am looking for thai condo in Chiang Mai and would like to know any available foreign quota condo.
Appreciate if you can advise on it, especially on the area of Chang Klan, or other recommendations.
Thanks
Jimmy
Hi Jimmy,
We have emailed you with a few questions about buying a condo and look forward to your reply.
Hi good afternoon, my name is William, I expect to move to chiang mai in Jan 23, (currently in Bkk), and needs 2 rooms in a pet friendly place. We have a shi tzu
Hi Willam
Are you looking to buy or rent a pet friendly place?
Hello, my little family of 4 are looking to stay in chiang Mai for 4 months (mid October till Mid Feb). My wife has a service dog with her and it is hard to find a condo in the city that allow dogs. After reading about Twin Peaks, it seems to be the perfect spot. Could help finding a unit in this building? Thank you
Hi Nick, thank you for your question, but Thailand is so understanding of service dogs, Twin Peaks will accept your pet but I have to be honest and say that most owners will not. And for such a short contract we are unable to offer houses. So fear we will not be able to help.
