Maison Privée Ciputra: CapitaLand, Mitsubishi and Nomura’s 490-Home Tay Ho Project
The two Maison Privée towers inside the Ciputra estate, Tay Ho, Hanoi. Developer render.
Maison Privée is an ultra-prime apartment development at the heart of the Ciputra estate, Phu Thuong ward, Tay Ho district, Hanoi — the first flagship project in the capital by CapitaLand Development, delivered with two Japanese groups, Mitsubishi Estate and Nomura Real Estate Development.
The defining numbers: a site of only 0.8 ha carrying two 35-storey towers with three basement levels and exactly 490 homes, served by 68 amenities spread across six levels and a 1:1 parking ratio. That amenity-per-home density sits at the top of the Hanoi market.

Can foreigners buy at Maison Privée?
Not yet answerable. Under the Housing Law, foreign ownership is capped at 30% of the apartments in any one building. With two towers and 490 homes there is theoretical room — but the developer has not confirmed how many units will be released to foreign buyers, in which tower, or whether any nationality restrictions apply. We will not put a number on it until there is a published document.
What is settled: the apartments are sold on a long-term ownership basis, not a fixed-term lease.
The three-developer structure
A joint venture of three developers is rare in the Hanoi market. CapitaLand leads; the two Japanese groups participate as co-developers.
| Developer | Origin | Track record in Vietnam |
|---|---|---|
| CapitaLand Development | Singapore | Over 30 years in Vietnam: Heritage West Lake, Lumi Hanoi, The Senique Hanoi, DEFINE, Sycamore |
| Mitsubishi Estate | Japan | Founded 1937, associated with the Marunouchi financial district in Tokyo. In Vietnam: The Senique, Lumi Hanoi, Capital Place, Waterpoint |
| Nomura Real Estate | Japan | The PROUD premium residential brand. In Vietnam: Phu My Hung Midtown (The Peak), The Origami, Ecopark Swanlake Onsen, Hong Hac City |

The project and the green landscape of the Ciputra estate.
Location: the last plot inside Ciputra
Location in Tay Ho, between the Red River and West Lake.
The site sits at the centre of the Ciputra estate, wrapped by roughly 6 ha of green landscape and water. Ciputra is Hanoi’s longest-established international estate — the expatriate and professional community, the international schools, the golf course and close to 100 ha of landscape have existed for years rather than being promised.
Connectivity: about 15 minutes to central Hanoi and 20 minutes to Noi Bai airport, with quick access to Ring Roads 2 and 3.
The project within Hanoi’s planned metro network.
One supply point worth weighing: developable land inside Ciputra is essentially exhausted. This is one of the last plots — the probability of another new high-rise at this address afterwards is very low.
The 490 homes: tower P and tower M
The two towers are positioned quite differently. Tower P is smaller and weighted to large homes; Tower M has more units and starts at two-bedroom.
| Tower P — 182 homes | Size | Units |
|---|---|---|
| 3 bedrooms | ≈158 m² | 100 |
| 4 bedrooms + | ≈197 – 198 m² | 66 |
| Duplex | ≈288 m² | 14 |
| Penthouse | ≈318 – 398 m² | 2 |
| Tower M — 308 homes | Size | Units |
|---|---|---|
| 2 bedrooms + | ≈98 m² | 183 |
| 3 bedrooms + | ≈123 – 132 m² | 122 |
| 4 bedrooms + | ≈221 m² | 2 |
| Penthouse | ≈475 m² | 1 |
68 amenities across six levels

Rather than concentrating everything into a podium, the amenities are distributed over six levels:
| Level | Name | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Privée Oasis | Supercar garage, serene courtyard, grand lobby and reception, private lift lobby, resident lounge, whisky club, coworking corner |
| Level 2 | Wellness Suite | Four-season spa pool, kids' wonder lagoon, infrared sauna, frost chamber, steam room, private spa suite, gym arena, yoga studio, pilates studio, nail salon, wellness suite |
| Level 3 | Vitality Hub | Grill and smoke terrace, twilight promenade, kids' adventure land, banquet house, 3D golf simulator, multimedia theatre, recreation corner |
| Level 13 | The Gathering | Sky garden |
| Level 20 | Terrace Gardens | Celestial terrace, bonding haven |
| Level 35 | The Crest 35 | Starlight bridge, pearl infinity pool, jacuzzi nest, cloud pavilion |
Two parking details worth separating out: the project has a 1:1 parking ratio — one space per home, uncommon in Hanoi apartments — and exactly 7 private supercar garages, presented as a first for a premium apartment development in the capital.

WELL standard and handover specification
Maison Privée is targeting status as the first residential project in Vietnam to achieve WELL for Residential Pre-Certification, the standard developed by the International WELL Building Institute.
How WELL differs from LEED or LOTUS: those measure a building’s impact on the environment; WELL measures a building’s impact on the health of the people inside it — air, water, light, thermal comfort and acoustics. Here that shows up as a fresh-air supply system with PM2.5 filtration to every room and a central domestic water filtration system.
On handover specification, the developer has published an indicative brand schedule:
| Category | Indicative brands |
|---|---|
| Kitchen appliances | V-ZUG (4-bedroom units, tower P) · Franke (other unit types) |
| Bathroom fittings | Gessi and Villeroy & Boch (tower P) · Geberit and Kaldewei (tower M) |
| Smart lock | Yale |
| Air conditioning | Daikin · Panasonic |
The published document states these are indicative and for reference, and that the developer reserves the right to revise or substitute items, brands, materials or equivalent technical specifications. At contract stage, check against the handover schedule attached to your contract — that is the binding document.
What to do at this stage
The project is currently accepting refundable reservation deposits of VND 200 million per slot. That is a priority-selection deposit and is refundable — it is not a purchase deposit. Ask for written terms covering the refund conditions and deadline before transferring.
Sensible preparation while the price list is pending:
- Choose the tower before the unit. Towers P and M have entirely different mixes — two-bedrooms exist only in M, while duplexes and penthouses together number 17 across the whole project.
- Ask which unit codes have the private lift. It is the biggest internal differentiator.
- Wait for the legal documentation. With the legal milestone status unpublished, do not pay anything beyond the refundable reservation until you have seen originals.
- Register your requirement early if you are a foreign or overseas-Vietnamese buyer — allocations are usually distributed in registration order once published.
