We're moving to Chiang Mai in early July, and are looking for a large house with a big compound in Chiang Mai. We'd prefer to be on the north/northeast side of town. We're looking for an unfurnished 5-7 bedroom house with at least 1500 sq meters of land. If anyone knows of a suitable place, we'd love to hear about it!

Moved to the Chiang Mai forum for local input.

Thank you so much. As a complete newbie to Thaivisa I wasn't sure where to post the question.

You're welcome and welcome to the Chiang Mai forum. There are several topics running on rental in this forum that you might browse for while waiting other members to reply.

Check out the Thai visa classifieds (above the green quick search).

Also City Life classifieds http://www.chiangmainews.com/

While going through the Jasmine Homes site, I found this:

BUT, it comes furnished , BUT it is only 15,000 Baht/month

I know of several. Are you looking to rent or buy? Send me a Private message for more info

I do have a house listed on Thaivisa for rent. Its a 4 bedroom/4 bath lana style teak house near Bosang, on 1 rai of lawn/gardens. It does come furnished, however. I can supply more pictures of it, if yo are interested.

Dean, thank you so much, but I think with our family size, including an elderly parent who will likely live with us for part of the year, we will really need the 5th bedroom.

Rama, I've answered your private message!

Thanks for the links to the various classifieds too, we're eagerly going through them!

One of our older kids is in Chiang Mai for a few weeks until she goes back to school and can go and see whatever may be available, so I hope we can find something soon.

Well, we're 3+ weeks from our arrival in beautiful Chiang Mai, and the house we thought we liked and that was available, is now very suddenly not available!

If you haven't found anything by the time you arrive in C.M., you could stay at my place for a month, while looking. Its up for rent again since my wife and son came back to the U.S. last month.

Dean, you are very sweet to offer! We are still working on this, and hopefully something will be settled before we arrive. I'll keep this in mind though, and I really appreciate the kindness of the offer!

There is no shortage of nice big homes for rent around CM. Get a hotel for a few days and take a drive around to the areas that your interested in and have a look. I see rental signs(in English)everyday in my travels.
