PS Crystal Condominium is in Sangkat Boeng Tumpun, Khan Mean Chey, in the southeast of Phnom Penh. It’s just south of the Russian Market (Tuol Tom Poung), one of the city’s well-known and long-established markets. Mean Chey is a fast-growing district with a mix of homes, small businesses, and new developments. It’s generally more affordable than the very central areas, but still benefits from improving roads and infrastructure.
Boeng Tumpun itself has become a popular residential area for both locals and expats. It works well for people who want easy access to shopping, food, and daily services, but don’t necessarily need to live right in the busiest part of the city.
About the Building
PS Crystal Condominium is a 15-story residential building that was completed in January 2018. There are 120 units in total, with a mix of layouts to suit different household sizes. The building is designed as a modern condo, with standard facilities and features aimed at everyday city living.
Unit Options
There are four main unit types in the building:
- Studio units are 49 sqm
- One-bedroom units range from 49–58 sqm
- Two-bedroom units are 108 sqm
- The top-floor 4-bedroom penthouse units are 445 sqm
Units can be offered furnished, and many come with balconies or some outdoor space, depending on the layout.
Building Amenities
Residents have access to several on-site facilities, including a swimming pool, gym, steam room, sauna, and a small playground area. There is also a rooftop terrace that provides an outdoor common space. All units include air-conditioning, and the building is equipped with a backup generator to help keep essential power running during outages. Covered parking is available for both cars and motorbikes.
Security & Operations
Security is provided 24/7, with video surveillance, alarm systems, and a fire alarm system in place. There is also a 24-hour reception desk. These services are aimed at providing a more secure and managed living environment for residents.
Nearby Amenities & Services
The surrounding area offers a good mix of everyday conveniences. The Russian Market is not far away, with fresh produce, local products, handicrafts, and simple dining options. Nearby, you’ll find Chip Mong 271 Mega Mall and Lucky Express 271 for supermarket shopping and retail.
Within a short distance, there are fitness options such as K11 Sport Club and Phnom Penh Sport Club, as well as banking services like Cathay United Bank and shops like Central Superstore.
Healthcare in the district includes Orienda International Hospital in Mean Chey. There are also several schools around the area, which can be practical for families. Local and international-style restaurants are scattered throughout the neighborhood, especially in and around the Russian Market zone.
Transportation & Accessibility
Boeng Tumpun is reasonably well connected to the rest of Phnom Penh. It is close to Hun Sen Boulevard (Street 60M), which is one of the city’s growing commercial and residential corridors. Travel times to key business and shopping areas are generally around 10–15 minutes by tuk-tuk, depending on traffic and exact destination. The local road network has improved compared to previous years, making access more straightforward than it used to be.
Things to Consider
As with many developing districts in Phnom Penh, Boeng Tumpun still has ongoing construction. This can occasionally mean dust, building noise, and heavier traffic during busy times. Parts of the area can also be prone to flooding during the rainy season (roughly May to October), which is a common issue in certain parts of the city. These are typical points to be aware of when considering homes in fast-growing neighborhoods.
Market Context
In Boeng Tumpun, typical rents are roughly in the range of $250–$500 per month for studios, $400–$700 for one-bedroom units, and $650–$900 for two-bedroom units, depending on the specific property, building age, and facilities. PS Crystal’s pricing generally sits within or close to these ranges.
