Vietnam's first BCA Green Mark certified compound — 11.8 ha of freehold riverfront villas and townhouses with Samsung SmartThings smart homes and Savills management.

💰 23 tỷ – 85 tỷ📏 258 triệu/m²🏗️ 3 of 3 delivered🏢 843 units

Gladia By The Waters is an 11.8-hectare luxury residential compound in Bình Trưng Đông Ward, Thu Duc, developed by Khang Điền and Keppel Land. The project combines three low-rise villa and townhouse zones with two 25-storey apartment towers, built around a Terrarium concept that reserves 77% of the site for greenery and water features surrounding three branches of Rạch Chiếc River. It is the first project in Vietnam to receive Singapore's BCA Green Mark for Districts certification, with Samsung SmartThings smart home integration across all landed units and professional management by Savills Vietnam.

Solid

Better for long-term living than for investing.

A purpose-built luxury compound for car-owning families and expat professionals who want freehold land, BCA-certified green infrastructure, and Savills management in a low-density riverside setting. The trade-off is location dependency: no metro access, a 7.5 km drive to the nearest public hospital, and luxury pricing that limits the near-term resale pool.

Why the scores differ

Homeowner: A strong choice for homeowners who value compound quality over urban proximity. Keppel Land and Khang Điền's BCA-certified compound delivers on its headline credentials — 77% green space, 23% building density, freehold titles issued within three months of handover, and Savills 24/7 management. The tradeoffs are real: Võ Chí Công congestion, high ambient noise outside the gates, and the nearest public hospital 7.5 km away make this a car-dependent lifestyle.

Investor: A long-term hold, not a flip. Freehold titles, Keppel Land's brand, and a genuine expat-and-luxury-family tenant pool in the District 2 corridor underpin a rental case, but no secondary market data exists yet to validate liquidity or yield. Luxury pricing means rental returns are likely 2.5–3.5%; the 617 apartment units under construction may compress villa resale premiums once delivered.

Price & Market

Current Market Price
258 triệu/m²
Unit price23 tỷ – 85 tỷ
Launch price258 triệu/m²
  • 🟢 BCA Green Mark is a verifiable, first-in-Vietnam credential for a landed compound — no comparable gated villa project in Thu Duc holds this certification, giving Gladia a durable differentiation in the luxury segment.
  • 🟢 All 226 low-rise freehold titles were issued at a single ceremony in January 2026, roughly three months after unit handover — an unusually fast legal timeline that removes the title uncertainty typical of new HCMC launches.
  • 🟡 Ring Road 3's elevated section through Thu Duc opened in stages between December 2025 and April 2026, providing a bypass corridor that reduces the project's dependence on congested Võ Chí Công for cross-city trips — a genuine connectivity improvement, though car ownership remains essential.
  • 🟡 The 617-unit apartment section broke ground in January 2026 and broadens the project's buyer profile and price range, but the long-term sustainability of villa resale premiums depends on how the compound's character evolves once the towers are occupied.
  • 🔴 No secondary market pricing data is available for resale assessment, and the luxury segment peer sample is too thin for reliable comparables — buyers should conduct independent market validation before committing at current asking prices.

Should you buy here?

Best for:
  • Families wanting a gated, low-density compound with freehold land and professional management
  • Expat professionals seeking a Savills-managed compound with Singapore-standard sustainability credentials
  • Homeowners who commute by car and prioritize compound quality over urban walkability
Not ideal for:
  • Buyers who rely on public transport for daily commuting
  • Homeowners who need quick access to a hospital or specialist medical care

Decision Factors

Strengths

  • BCA Green Mark certified — Vietnam's first for a residential compound — with 77% green and water coverage at 23% building density; a verifiable differentiation in the luxury segment
  • Freehold titles issued for all 226 low-rise units at a single ceremony in January 2026, approximately three months after handover — unusually fast for a major HCMC project
  • Keppel Land co-development, Savills 24/7 management, and Samsung SmartThings smart homes combine three tier-1 credentials under one compound — no comparable gated landed project in Thu Duc holds all three
  • Ring Road 3 elevated section through Thu Duc partly operational since April 2026, providing a bypass corridor that reduces peak-hour reliance on Võ Chí Công Street for cross-district commutes

Tradeoffs

  • !Car-dependent lifestyle: no metro within walking distance (An Phu Station 7.4 km away), and the nearest public hospital — Gia Dinh People's Hospital — is a 7.5 km drive
  • !Luxury villa pricing (258–267M/m²; 23–85B VND total per unit) narrows the resale buyer pool and caps rental yields at an estimated 2.5–3.5%
  • !High ambient noise outside the compound gates from street-level entertainment activity and Võ Chí Công arterial traffic — the external sound environment is one of the noisier in the Thu Duc residential corridor

Watch items

  • ?Two 25-storey apartment towers (617 units) broke ground in January 2026, targeting Q4 2027 completion — verify construction progress and consider how the towers will affect compound character and villa resale dynamics once delivered
  • ?Pink books for apartment units are pending construction completion — apartment buyers should confirm the issuance timeline directly with the developer
  • ?No secondary market transaction data exists for this compound yet — verify comparable villa resale prices in the District 2 corridor independently before committing at luxury pricing

Things to consider (not deal breakers)

Võ Chí Công Street is the primary access route and experiences regular congestion during peak hours, especially inbound toward Thu Duc center and Thủ Thiêm. The Mỹ Thủy interchange provides some east-west relief.
→ The Võ Chí Công Street corridor is planned for expansion and the Mỹ Thủy interchange improves east-west connectivity. The Long Thành – Dầu Giây Expressway 2 km away provides an alternative route avoiding urban grid.
🌊 Flood Risk

The site borders branches of Rạch Chiếc River and can see minor localized flooding during peak monsoon rains. Elevated plinth levels and the compound's green drainage infrastructure mitigate interior flooding risk.
→ BCA Green Mark certification requires elevated foundations and water-efficient landscaping with 65% drought-resistant plants. The 77% green space ratio also absorbs surface runoff more effectively than denser developments.

Notable Places

Five Themed Parks
Five distinct themed parks — Zen, Sports, Family, Kids, and Riverside — are distributed throughout the compound totaling 1.25 hectares of curated green space. A 2 km jogging trail threads through all five zones along Rạch Chiếc River branches, forming a continuous green circuit rare for a private compound in Thu Duc.
Five Themed Parks

Mini Golf Course
On-site Kindergarten
A kindergarten within the secured compound gates, giving young children walkable school access without leaving the estate. The operating brand and curriculum details have not been publicly confirmed by the developer.
