Brightonman Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I have been living in a condo in Amphoe Muang Nakhon Pathom near Silpakorn University, where I work. It is very hot and the choice of TV and internet are not mine. Therefore I would like to rent a house. Does anyone know of any houses for rent in Nakhon Pathom? I pay 4000 baht a month plus bills at the minute but would go to 6000 baht or maybe a little more for somewhere good. Also hardly anyone speaks English in my apartment block so once I leave work I often don't speak to anyone til the next class. So a better apartment would be another alternative if anyone knows of an apartment block within a motorbike drive of Silpakorn Uni where there is a gym or swimming pool or place where people socialise, then do let me know... Also always looking for anyone living in Nakhonpathom who would like to play sport or have a beer or two now and again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 i don't know of any houses for rent.. i think you will just have to get on a bike and ride around until you see a sign.. As for apartments with pools etc. i think the apartments near the market on Ratchamanka rd have gym and swimming pool. ALSO there is an apartment on the hospital rd that has both.. but thats about 10-15 min bike ride. i'm in NK 4 times a week if i see anything i will let you know. regards Allan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brightonman Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 An occasional beer sounds great timbovril! nice name btw. Getting a bit old for rugby but could give it a go I suppose. A bit of frisbee, table-tennis or badminton might be possible.. Used to play squash in UK but that might be a bit harder to find here. I'm currently living just outside NK near Bosco with a buddy.

Brightonman Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Had a good look round near the hospital today for a house with my American friend who has managed to rent a house (but he has a Thai girlfriend which makes life easier) but although there were many empty looking houses there were no for rent signs. Houses in Nakhon Pathom are rarer than elephant eggs. I also asked in an apartment block on Ratchamanka rd called Baan Thai as suggested by an earlier poster whether they had a swimming pool and gym. The girl said yes, yes, but then the boss spoke up and told me to go look at a different place with an unmemorable Thai name, but I couldn't find it. Will have to do a bit more research..
