When buying freehold
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.

An intimate club village of just 5 villas in Bang Tao (Cherng Talay)
Stella Estate Residences — villa project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$1,421,152, from $2,900 per sqm. Beach: Bang Tao, ~5 km. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~6% developer forecast. Completed: villas are available for move-in.
Stella Estate Residences is an intimate club village of just 5 villas in the Cherng Talay area (Bang Tao), by developer Stella Estate. The villas are single-storey, with 4–5 bedrooms, ranging from ~490 to ~718 sqm, each with a private pool, an infinity edge at the boundary of the plot, and a rooftop sky pavilion. Technical features include a smart-home system, two kitchens (European and Thai), and a solar-panel option. Entry price starts from ~$1,421,152.
The project sits on the Bandon–Cherng Talay road, between Soi Pasak 6 and 8 — in the emerging Pasak residential sub-area, but formally within Bang Tao. It is about 2 km to the Boat Avenue retail cluster and about 5 km to Bang Tao beach itself, meaning a car is required. In the same Bang Tao area, our catalog also lists Erawana Grand — a delivered villa village near Laguna Golf Course with a comparable entry price, a useful benchmark for comparing format and location.
Entry price starts from ~$1,421,152 for a 4-bedroom villa of ~490–514 sqm; 5-bedroom villas (~718 sqm) cost more. The developer does not publish a unified price grid by type — the final price depends on the specific lot and its position on the property. Rental yield is forecast by the developer at around 6% per year, with no rental-pool track record to check it against: the project is too new and too intimate (only 5 villas) to talk about a statistically meaningful yield.
Scale is exactly what sets Stella Estate Residences apart from its neighbors: this is not a large villa village with dozens of lots, but a club format of only 5 homes, which limits resale liquidity but gives the buyer near-complete privacy on the grounds.
As of publication, the villas are available for move-in — the exact completion status should be confirmed for each of the 5 villas individually, since the village’s intimate format means different homes may be at different stages of final finishing. We found no public portfolio of past projects by developer Stella Estate beyond this address — the company is based in Thalang and is known so far only for this village.
Ownership is structured as freehold or leasehold — the specific structure depends on the chosen villa and should be verified before reservation.
Who it suits: a buyer for whom the privacy of an intimate 5-home village and modern technical features (smart-home, two kitchens, solar panels) matter more than beach walking distance or a developer with a long track record. Buyers who need proximity to the sea should look at more coastal Bang Tao projects.
Our role as an agency is to confirm the current status of the specific villa, verify the final price by area and plot position, and check the ownership structure (freehold or leasehold) before signing.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold / leasehold. This is the project-level starting point, not a legal opinion on a particular unit. The contract, title, foreign quota and seller authority must be verified before reservation.
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.
A foreign buyer may own the structure but cannot directly own Thai land. The land element is normally held through a registered long lease or another lawful structure. Term, renewals, inheritance and resale rights must be explicit in the contract.
Verify the receiving legal entity, construction milestone, payment trigger, delay remedies and the documents the seller must deliver for registration.
This is general information. Structure and taxes depend on the unit, seller and contract; an independent Thai lawyer should complete the final review.
Indicative estimate: yield and the rental model depend on the project, unit and management program. Request an exact projection for a specific unit.

Villas are already available for move-in; the exact completion status should be confirmed for each of the 5 villas individually.
Both options are available; the structure depends on the specific villa.
~5 km to Bang Tao beach — a car is required. On the other hand, it is about 2 km to the Boat Avenue retail cluster.
Erawana Grand is a delivered villa village near Laguna Golf Course with a comparable entry price. Stella Estate Residences is an even more intimate format (only 5 villas) with modern technical features like a smart-home system.
~6% developer forecast — that is a projection, not a guarantee: actual income depends on occupancy, season and running costs. We model it for the specific unit before the deal.
Funds arrive from abroad in foreign currency and the Thai bank issues an FET form. Without it the Land Department will not register freehold to a foreigner, so we agree the amount and payment reference in advance.
