Introduction to An Zen Residences: A New Era of Affordable Housing in Hai Phong
Nam Long ADC, a key player within the Nam Long Group, has unveiled the An Zen Residences project in Hai Phong. This initiative marks the introduction of the EHome affordable housing model in northern Vietnam, offering a new solution for urban living. The project’s Sales Gallery and soft launch event took place at the project site on Trang Quan Street, An Hai Ward, highlighting its strategic location and potential impact on the local real estate market.
The event was attended by a wide range of stakeholders, including senior city officials, Japanese partners such as Hankyu Hanshin Properties and Nishi Nippon Railroad (Nishitetsu), and representatives from major banks like OCB, VCB, VietinBank, Techcombank, and ACB. This broad participation underscores the significance of the project and its alignment with broader economic and social development goals.
Strategic Vision and Market Impact
Tran Thanh Phong, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors at Nam Long Group, emphasized that the launch of An Zen Residences reflects the company’s renewed commitment to providing affordable housing solutions. He noted that the project aligns with the group’s vision of creating environments that add value to communities. The project will introduce 887 EHome apartments, marking the first of its kind in northern Vietnam. This follows the successful completion of five EHome projects in southern Vietnam, which have delivered over 8,500 units.
Phong also highlighted the importance of addressing the growing demand for affordable housing, particularly in a market where many residents struggle to find homes that meet their needs. An Zen Residences is positioned to fill this gap, offering a balanced and accessible housing option for young families and professionals.
Prime Location and Connectivity
Located in An Hai Ward, a key area once known as the southern gateway of old Hai Phong, the project is now part of the city’s new center. Situated on a prime riverside site on Trang Quan Street, where the Lach Tray and Tam Bac rivers converge, the development benefits from excellent connectivity. It is just 5 km from the city’s economic and administrative core and within 10 km of major industrial zones. The Hai Phong–Hanoi Expressway provides easy access to other parts of the region, making it an attractive option for commuters.
Surrounded by emerging residential developments, including another upcoming EHome project by Nam Long ADC, the area is expected to become a modern urban hub. This positioning makes An Zen Residences an ideal choice for those seeking a vibrant and convenient lifestyle.
Design and Amenities
The EHome brand is known for its affordability and accessibility, focusing on the essential needs of stable living and long-term settlement for the majority of Vietnamese people. The project is built on the 3E criteria—Economy, Efficiency, and Ecology. This approach ensures cost-saving, smart design, and sustainable living options for residents.
Covering nearly 1.5 hectares, An Zen Residences features three 18-story towers equipped with five elevators each. This is a notable feature for affordable housing, ensuring convenience and ease of access for residents. The project offers a variety of apartment sizes, ranging from 1- to 3-bedroom units, all designed with a minimalist style to promote a modern and comfortable lifestyle.
Community-Focused Facilities
An Zen Residences includes a comprehensive set of internal amenities aimed at fostering a healthy and comfortable lifestyle. These include indoor and outdoor gyms, a multi-functional sports court, a pickleball court, and yoga areas. Additional facilities such as a clubhouse, children’s playground, nursery, BBQ area, and a Zen relaxation garden enhance the overall quality of life and promote a sense of community among residents.
The design of these amenities prioritizes human well-being, setting a new standard for sustainable living. The use of eco-friendly materials, solar-powered lighting, EV charging stations, and a scientifically planned green landscape system further reinforces the project’s commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
Future Outlook
Nam Long ADC anticipates handing over the apartments at An Zen Residences in Q3 2026. This timeline positions the project to offer future residents a dynamic lifestyle and a modern home in the city center. With its focus on affordability, sustainability, and community, An Zen Residences is poised to make a significant impact on the real estate market in Hai Phong.
As part of the Nam Long Group, Nam Long ADC plays a crucial role in pioneering affordable and social housing development in Vietnam. The company has successfully delivered over 10,000 affordable (EHome) and social housing (EHomeS) units in the Southern market, including Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, and Long An. With a solid foundation, a clear business model, and a sustainable growth strategy, Nam Long ADC aims to become Vietnam’s leading integrated and innovative real estate group by 2030.
