4 Bed, 5 Bath Villa for Sale in Toul Svay Prey 1

Dubbed the Man Who Built Cambodia, Vann Molyvann was the key figure in shaping Cambodia’s architecture during the 50s and 60s, building some of the country’s finest landmarks celebrated today. He was renowned for combining modernist principles with ancient Khmer motifs to create a style that came to be called New Khmer Architecture.

Born in Ream, Kampot province in 1926, Molyvann completed his architecture degree in Paris, France, and returned home in 1956 as the first fully qualified Cambodian architect. A year later, he was appointed by the late King Norodom Sihanouk as the head of public works and state architect. He went on to design more than 100 iconic buildings, most notably the Independence Monument, the Olympic Stadium, Institute of Foreign Languages, the National Theatre, and the Chaktomuk Conference Hall.

Amongst Molyvann’s many architectural masterpieces, what is not known by many is his private residence in Phnom Penh, a characteristically elegant and meticulously designed home with a touch of Khmer culture and history.

Located on Mao Tse Toung Boulevard, the surrounding area is populated with dining, entertainment, and shopping options -- most notably the Russian Market, The Point Community Mall, and the AEON Mall 1, all of which are within 5 minutes drive if not walking distance. Restaurants, retail shops, schools, banks/ATMs, hotels, clinics, pharmacies, bakeries, cafes, pagodas, church and other amenities, are well within reach.

It features 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and a balcony on the upper floor with Molyvann’s iconic parabolic curved double-layered roof.
