We Need A Lonely House Near Chiang Mai!

[arsyaaa]

Hello everybody. Maybe somebody knows the lonely house in the field or in the forest without roads and neighbours so children can play and run and scream without disturbing and fear. Also we need internet. Thanks.

[Tywais]

I'm moving this to the Chiang Mai forum for local input.

[market trader]

You say you would like a house in fields or forest without neighbours. But yet you also want internet. Obtaining internet in populated areas can quite often be a problem. Therefore maybe internet in an area you would like might not exist.

[hellodolly]

Sounds like they are trying to isolate their children not a good idea.

I grew up in an area where we had neighbors and there children along with me ran and played and yelled. It was a lot more fun doing it with others than just my brothers and sisters.

I think you contact me yesterday?

It will not be easy to find a house far out and I belief we have nothing you look for, have a look on other solutions, with kids a mooban is much better then to be alone out of wild http://www.buyrentchiangmai.com

many missed that. Including me until you spotted it. Well done.

Don't be fearful of people in Thailand.

Be fearful of the snakes, scorpions and other bitey creatures in rural areas.

As others have said, internet will be a problem in such areas.

Seen a few places advertised on gates along the rural road from Mae Rim to Mae Tang.

Take a drive along it (turn left off the main road 1/2Km out of MR)

Or this place in the mountains behind Doi Saket (50min drive to CM)

(asking price 1.2Mbht, electricity, water, no internet, no mobile coverage, no neighbors)

(You can often rent houses advertised for sale at about 5% the asking price .... so about 5k/month)

As a foreigner living in an isolated area, aren't you just asking to be burgled?

[Beetlejuice]

I think the OP will be hard pushed to find any isolated accommodation in Chiang Mai, because I doubt if there are any isolated areas in Chiang Mai anymore, unless he is willing to live well outside the town somewhere.

The only option I can think of is to rent a house located on a large perhaps 4 to 5 rai plot of land that has lots of space between the house and the neighbors. But something on that scale is going to be costly.

Fine if the OP can afford it?

[zippydedodah]

check thai classifieds... there is 2 houses on 8 rai that is very secluded and safe, yet only 15 mins to Ruamchok Plaza .

[Traxster]

A 'lonely' house ?

How sad !

[orang37]

A house (and land) to buy ? To rent ? If to rent, for how long a period ?

If you have young children, I would think your first target areas for looking for residence would be near where your children are going to go to school (assuming they are school age, or will be of age if you stay here long enough).

Too little information, too broad a question.

Did you grow up in Texas?

I was wondering about S. Missouri Ozarks or W. Virginia.

Meh, not radically different compared to the suburbs, or even downtown.

As others have said, internet will be a problem in such areas.

There's always 3G cellular data, unless you're REALLY remote.

I think the OP will be hard pushed to find any isolated accommodation in Chiang Mai, because I doubt if there are any isolated areas in Chiang Mai anymore, unless he is willing to live well outside the town somewhere.

A 30 minute or so drive from downtown works.

We can always rely on B-J to point us in the right direction......

[jaideeguy]

I may have just what the OP is looking for and I can totally relate to the kind of lifestyle he is looking for, as I'm a bit of a recluse myself. Peace, quiet, security and nature with the comforts of [high speed ]internet, electric and access is hard to find in LOS, but I was lucky enough to find it and it's up for sale, and or rent one of the houses. check out <url removed>for details and photos and I'll send you a PM in case the mods remove the link.

We want to rent this house, and we want a small house, not more than 10000 baht per month, better less. We want to rent for 6 months. Yes, it can just has a big land with a fence, not be alone in the forest)) I am trying to find it, because now we live near Chiang Mai in the village where all houses are very close to each other and there are cars around, and just my children go out of my gate, immediately careful old thai lady or man ring my door bell with screamings: "Big car, big car!!!" And it is nervous. Children want to play outside, not only in the little garden 5 m length. And I cannot look after children all the time, I have a lot to do.

[arsyaaa]

I got some mails and I want to add that I do not want to make somebody think that I do not have time for my kids. I just cannot physically look 24 hours that they do not go outside, it is impossible. But for me the first thing is safety of my kids and not disturbing others by their screams.

What you are asking for makes perfect sense. I think English is not your native language and the use of "Lonely" to describe the house gave the wrong impression. Good luck. It sounds like you are looking for a good place for kids to be.

That's it!!!!!!!!!

[arsyaaa]

Which adjective is better in this case in spite of "lonely"?

[zippydedodah]

remote, isolated.... heck, even description like "large, quiet property that is in a kid friendly mooban"

[arsyaaa]

And all Estate agencies told me they cannot help me and there is no such houses. But you know what? My friend found such a house month before for just 5000 baht per month!

Once you get to the mooban you have to ask the sale office if there's is any house for rent often there's no sign.

[hellodolly]

I would have written large property for kids to play on close to other kids.

Good luck in your search.

Last time I drove by Prem the entire area was pretty well developed all the way from the main road to the Wat in Mae Aen.
