The 9 Stellars: High-End Apartment and Villa Project in the Heart of Thu Duc City
The 9 Stellars is a luxury residential and villa complex developed by SonKim Land Group, located on a 16.5-hectare land plot on Hoang Huu Nam Street, Long Binh Ward, Thu Duc City (formerly District 9), Ho Chi Minh City. The project is expected to become a new symbol of smart and upscale living in the eastern area of the city.
Overview of The 9 Stellars Project
The 9 Stellars is the result of cooperation between Ngan Thanh Joint Stock Company (Developer) and SonKim Land (Project Developer). With a total area of 16.5 hectares, the project offers a diverse living space including high-end apartments and villas.
The project is located in the center of Thu Duc City, an area experiencing strong infrastructure development, especially benefiting from the new Eastern Bus Station and the Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien metro line.

- City/Province: Ho Chi Minh City
- District: District 9 (Thu Duc City)
- Land area: 16.5 ha

Strategic Location and Connectivity Potential
The 9 Stellars is located in a strategic position on Hoang Huu Nam Street, Long Binh Ward, Thu Duc City. The most notable advantage of this location is its proximity to major transportation hubs:
- Located directly behind the new Eastern Bus Station.
- Approximately 1 km from Metro Line 1 station (Ben Thanh – Suoi Tien line).
This location allows residents of The 9 Stellars to easily access surrounding areas:
- About 1.5 km to Thu Duc City Oncology Hospital.
- About 1.7 km to National Historical Cultural Park.
- About 2 km to Suoi Tien Tourist Area.
- About 2.7 km to Thu Duc Golf Course.
- About 4.6 km to Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City.
- About 5 km to High-Tech Park.
Infrastructure planning driving potential
The 9 Stellars benefits significantly from upcoming transportation infrastructure projects. Currently, access from central Ho Chi Minh City mainly goes through Xa Lo Ha Noi highway. However, the completion of Ring Road 2 and Ring Road 3 by 2025 will redirect container traffic, easing congestion on Xa Lo Ha Noi.
In addition, the 1A Tan Van – Nhon Trach Ring Road section, started on September 24, 2022, opens strong development potential for the area. Long Phuoc Ward is also planned to develop a 203-hectare High-Tech Park 2 and a 173-hectare National University village area during 2025–2030, further enhancing property value in The 9 Stellars.
Diverse and Modern Product Design
Phase 1 of The 9 Stellars is implemented on a 4.5-hectare site, including 50 villas and 191 luxury apartments.
