Eco Green City sits at 286 Nguyen Xien, directly on the Ring Road 3 corridor in the south-west of Hanoi. The developer, Viet Hung Investment and Development, built four towers — CT1 to CT4 — on a little over two hectares, delivering roughly 1,800 apartments between the second quarter of 2017 and the middle of 2018.

The unit mix is what keeps the project in demand. The dominant plan is a 95 sq m three-bedroom with two bathrooms, which is a genuinely usable family apartment, and there are 67 sq m two-bedrooms at the entry end and duplex and penthouse layouts above 180 sq m at the top. Three-bedroom resales have recently sat around 7 to 8.5 billion dong.

Nine years on from the first handover, this is mature stock. Pink books are issued across the buildings, the management routine is established, and the landscaping between the towers — which the name promised and which not every project of that era delivered — has grown in.

Location and getting around

Nguyen Xien is part of the Ring Road 3 ring, which is both the project’s best feature and its main nuisance. The upside: the elevated expressway gets you to the Thanh Xuan interchange, to Phap Van and the southern highway, and across to Pham Hung and My Dinh without touching inner-city streets. The Big C Thang Long and Trang An retail cluster at Khuat Duy Tien is minutes away.

The downside is the same road. Nguyen Xien carries heavy flow at ground level and the elevated section runs close by, so apartments on the lower floors of the road-facing sides take noise. Buyers here generally pay attention to which way a unit faces.

Local amenities are good for the price band: The Manor Central Park and the Chu Van An lake park are nearby, Ring Road 3 puts several hospitals within reach, and there is a kindergarten, pools, a gym and a retail podium inside the complex itself.

Who it suits

  • Families who need 95 sq m and three bedrooms without an inner-city price
  • Commuters who use Ring Road 3 daily and want to get onto it quickly
  • Buyers who want finished stock with certificates already issued
  • Tenants looking for mid-market rents in the Thanh Xuan and Hoang Mai job corridor

Before you buy or rent

  • Ask which tower and which orientation. CT2 and CT3 hold the best-regarded corner units; anything facing Nguyen Xien on a low floor will be noisier.
  • This is 2017-2018 construction. Have the bathrooms, waterproofing and air-conditioning checked rather than assuming the finish is current.
  • Confirm the service charge and the parking arrangement, including whether a car space is assigned or allocated by lottery.
  • Foreign buyers should check the remaining quota in the specific tower before paying a deposit.
