Our Services
Three Services, One Focus: Mountain Living Done Well
Each Fieldstone service is shaped by the specific challenges and character of property rental in the highland areas north and northwest of Chiang Mai.
← Back to HomeOur Approach to Mountain Property
Every service Fieldstone offers starts from the same place: an honest reckoning with what mountain living in northern Thailand actually involves. The landscape is beautiful. The rhythm of life is slower and more connected to natural cycles. The trade-offs — road quality, seasonal weather, distance from city services — are real and worth understanding clearly before committing to a lease.
We built our services around these considerations rather than around the mechanics of transaction volume. That means fewer clients, more attention, and better outcomes for the people who work with us.
Our methodology is consistent across all three services: assess thoroughly, communicate plainly, and follow through beyond the initial engagement.
Site-First Assessment
All properties evaluated in person, in multiple seasons where possible
Written Observations
Notes on each property shared with clients before any decision is made
Accompanied Throughout
We're present at viewings, negotiations, and lease signings
Documented Continuity

Mountain Valley Rentals
Furnished homes and bungalows in Chiang Mai's Mae Rim valley — a lush, mountainous area about twenty minutes north of the city centre. Each property in this category has been selected for its setting, its garden or outdoor space, and its practicality for day-to-day life. Properties are near nature trails, organic farms, and local hill tribe markets.
These are available for stays of one to three months. They're suited to nature enthusiasts, writers seeking a quieter working environment, or families wanting a slower-paced stay with convenient access to Chiang Mai when needed.

Highland Home Search
A thorough tenant-side search for those seeking six-month or longer rentals in Chiang Mai's northern districts and mountain valleys. The service acknowledges that living outside the city centre requires different considerations — and addresses those factors methodically rather than treating them as secondary details.
Each property recommendation includes practical observations about the aspects of mountain living that listings rarely mention. Viewings are accompanied, and the service continues through lease completion, including support at the negotiation and signing stages.
Pricing
฿14,500 one-time
Fixed fee covering the entire search and lease process. No additional charges for standard work.
Mountain Property Stewardship
Monthly care for tenants in rural or semi-rural properties, covering the considerations specific to mountain living. This service exists because highland properties — surrounded by vegetation, subject to heavier rainfall, and sometimes dependent on less robust infrastructure — benefit from consistent, attentive monitoring.
Each monthly visit covers a property walk-through, garden and outdoor area inspection, pest and moisture checks, coordination with local maintenance providers if needed, and communication with the landlord where relevant. Photo documentation is shared after every visit.
Pricing
฿5,800 / month
Cancellable with 30 days' notice. No minimum contract term.
Monthly Visit Covers
- Full property interior and exterior walk-through
- Garden, terrace, and drainage area condition check
- Pest and moisture assessment (critical during rainy season)
- Water system and electricity check
- Coordination with maintenance providers as needed
- Landlord communication on your behalf where required
- Photographic report shared by end of visit day
Rainy season note: May through October requires more vigilant attention for highland properties. Our visits during this period pay particular attention to drainage, moisture ingress, and pest activity.

Transparent Pricing
