District 7 Luxury Real Estate 2026: Decoding the “Resort at Home” Appeal of The View Riviera Point and the Pride of The Horizon

(VHouse Vietnam) – As Saigon’s elite shift their living preferences from “large homes” to “homes with style,” the District 7 real estate map in 2026 witnesses the ascendancy of iconic projects. More than just residences, projects like The Horizon, The Ascentia, and The View Riviera Point are becoming “collectible” assets that affirm their owners’ status. Amidst stable 2026 interest rates, which choice truly befits substantial capital?

1. The Horizon: The Final “Diamond” by Crescent Lake

The Horizon is the first and only residential project situated directly at The Crescent—the heart of Phu My Hung.

2026 Analysis:

• Unrivaled Position: By 2026, land around Crescent Lake is exhausted. Owning The Horizon means possessing an asset with no competition (Unique Selling Point).

• Value: This project sets the new “price ceiling” for District 7 real estate (over 130 million/m²).

• Client Profile: Primarily ultra-wealthy individuals and returning overseas Vietnamese (facilitated by the new Land Law). They purchase not for rental income but for privacy and prestige.

Advice: Purchasing The Horizon means acquiring a “Legacy.” Do not expect short-term flipping. This is an asset to preserve for future generations or serve as a second home right in the heart of Saigon.

2. The View Riviera Point: The Benchmark of Resort Living from Keppel Land

If Phu My Hung embodies understated elegance, The View Riviera Point (Keppel Land) carries the modern, dynamic spirit of Singapore.

2026 Analysis:

• Quality of Life: In 2026, after years of operation, Riviera Point maintains its reputation as District 7’s best internal amenities project (saltwater pools, elevated running tracks, lush greenery).

• Market Performance: Highly favored by Western and Japanese expatriate tenants. Rental rates here consistently exceed the general market by 15-20%.

• Potential: The project sits along the Ca Cam River, benefiting from urban upgrades and future connectivity with Thu Thiem 4 Bridge (expected to commence in the near future). Buying The View means investing in construction quality and internationally-standardized management operations.

3. The Ascentia: Boutique Luxury in the Heart of the Green Peninsula

Situated on the commercial artery Nguyen Luong Bang Street, The Ascentia represents the “Boutique” product line—limited quantity, refined design.

2026 Analysis:

• Style: Strong resort character, tranquil atmosphere, low resident density. Suitable for those prioritizing privacy while maintaining rapid connectivity to the financial center.

• Investment Value: In 2026, Nguyen Luong Bang Boulevard is gradually filling with office towers. Demand from CEOs and senior managers working in this area for purchase/rental will surge. The Ascentia is the top choice for this clientele.

• Comparison: More accessible pricing than The Horizon yet quality of life rating 9/10. Capital appreciation potential remains strong as infrastructure in the Nam Vien area progressively completes.

Summary & Macro Outlook for District 7 in 2026

Overall, the District 7 real estate market in 2026 is entering a “mature” phase. No longer plagued by speculative land fever, property values here are underwritten by fully-developed social infrastructure (International Schools, Hospitals) now 100% complete.

Exclusive Advice from VHouse Vietnam for Luxury Investors:

• Legal Status is Paramount: All three projects above (Horizon, Riviera Point, Ascentia) possess impeccable legal credentials. They represent safe harbors during market fluctuations.

• Financial Leverage: In this segment, limit borrowing to less than 40%. Preferential loan rates for high-end home purchases in 2026 are no longer as abundant as before.

• Vision: Hold assets for at least 3-5 years. Once Thu Thiem 4 Bridge materializes, property prices in this area will approach those of District 2 (Thu Thiem).
