Overview
Forest Khaoyai is a two-block freehold condominium of 150 units set back off Highway 1016 at Sok Luek Phatthana in Tambon Phaya Yen, on the western approach to Khao Yai about two hours from Bangkok. The pitch in the developer's own marketing is a 360-degree outlook onto forest and sky, and the satellite footprint bears it out — the blocks sit against tree cover with the highway on one side and nothing built behind them. The developer is J Group Construction Co., Ltd. (บริษัท เจ กรุ๊ป คอนสตรัคชั่น จำกัด), read off two structured project tables on databases with no common owner: ZmyHome's ผู้พัฒนา cell and Baania's พัฒนาโดย cell, each on that database's own page for this exact project. The same two databases agree on 150 units, and both record completion in 2022 after the fact rather than as a plan — Baania prints the project as 100 percent complete alongside the year, which is what makes it an event rather than a schedule. One number is deliberately withheld. ZmyHome is the only source anywhere that publishes a storey count, eight, and the project's own Treasury appraisal schedule reproduced on the same page prices floors one through seven for both blocks and stops there. Two sources, one figure each, in conflict — so this entry ships no floor count rather than a tidy wrong one, and you should ask the juristic office which level a specific unit sits on. The building count is on firmer ground: ZmyHome says two blocks and the appraisal schedule independently carries two separate per-floor tables, an unnamed block and a block numbered one. Only a single room type is published, a 35 sqm one-bedroom, quoted by Baania at THB 4,000,000 in March 2022 against a ZmyHome launch price of THB 2.99 million. Residents share a communal pool with a children's pool, a fitness room, a sky lounge and a lobby, with digital door locks, keycard entry, CCTV and 24-hour security. Three cautions before signing. Rent here is not published by anyone — no portal checked carries a live rental at this project, so both figures below are disclosed estimates benchmarked against the nearest comparable Khao Yai corridor buildings, not quotes; treat them as a starting point and negotiate from an actual viewing. Second, a share of this address turns over nightly rather than on an annual lease: Google files a separate lodging profile, Oabkod At Forest Khaoyai, at this same place, rated 4.8 across 51 reviews, and the guest reviews on the condominium's own profile read like hotel stays. That is the same pattern already flagged on Bergh Apton and Botanica elsewhere in this registry, and it is a reason to agree the lease term in writing, not a reason to avoid the building — the per-block, per-floor Treasury appraisal schedule proves these are individually tradeable freehold units. Third, this project is invisible on the portal most foreign renters reach for: FazWaz's 66-row Nakhon Ratchasima project directory does not carry it at all, and neither does DDproperty, so comparison shopping from the English-language portals alone will understate what is available on this stretch of road. Coordinates are self-pinned live in Google Maps against the project's own place record, which publishes forestkhaoyai.com and +66 91 089 5555 — both matching ZmyHome's own contact block for this project exactly, which is what binds the place record to the project record rather than to a similarly named neighbour. That profile publishes plus code H76X+R7; decoded by hand as an Open Location Code, the cell it names is the pin shipped here, ZmyHome's own independent geocode falls inside the same cell, and Baania's independent geocode sits about 30 m north-east. Finally, a dedupe warning for anyone comparing listings: Khao Yai Foresta, already in this registry, is a different building — a different developer, 415 units against 150, a 2014 completion, a separate ZmyHome record and a site about 8 km away on the Thanarat Road corridor. The Valley Khaoyai and 23 Degrees Khao Yai are genuine neighbours about 300 m up this same road, but both are Sansiri estates with their own separate place records. BAANLYY brings together verified listings, transparent pricing tools, comparable-rent data and the full application checklist for every available residence at Forest Khaoyai.
This guide brings together the verified building facts for Forest Khaoyai — developer, completion year, height, ownership and amenities — alongside the Phaya Yen, Pak Chong (Highway 1016 / Phan Suek-Kut Khla Road, western Khao Yai gateway) context renters and buyers care about.

Building facts
| Developer | J Group Construction Co., Ltd. (บริษัท เจ กรุ๊ป คอนสตรัคชั่น จำกัด) |
| Completed | 2022 |
| Building | null floors · 150 units |
| Property type | Freehold hillside resort condominium in two low-rise blocks on Highway 1016 at Phaya Yen; the storey count is contested between the only two sources that speak to it and is not asserted here |
| Foreign ownership | Freehold — the project is a registered อาคารชุด carrying its own per-block, per-floor กรมธนารักษ์ condominium appraisal schedule for Nakhon Ratchasima (recorded 15 August 2567 BE), which is what proves the units are individually tradeable rather than a hotel inventory; confirm the foreign-freehold quota and the title type on the specific unit with the juristic office |
| Pets | Not published by any source checked — ZmyHome, Baania and the project's own Google place record are all silent on pets, so get the current policy in writing from the juristic office before signing |
| Parking | On-site parking is visible on the project's own satellite footprint and the estate sits directly on Highway 1016, but no source checked publishes a space count against the 150 units — ZmyHome prints its parking field as zero, which is its unknown default rather than a finding, so confirm the allocation with the juristic office |
| Nearest transit | No rail transit in Nakhon Ratchasima; on Highway 1016 (the Phan Suek-Kut Khla Road) at Sok Luek Phatthana in Tambon Phaya Yen, Pak Chong district, at the western entrance to the Khao Yai corridor roughly two hours from Bangkok via Highway 1 to Saraburi and then Highway 2. The Sansiri-built The Valley Khaoyai and 23 Degrees Khao Yai are the immediate neighbours about 300 m up the same road, Wat Tham Phrom Chanya Tharam, Farm Chokchai and HomePro are the landmarks the developer's own marketing leans on, and Khao Yai National Park lies further east; Don Mueang Airport is about 135 km by road |
