South Kolkata has always been the centre of focus of infrastructure and development in our sprawling metropolis. Upscale localities like Alipore, Ballygunge, Tollygunge, Gariahat, Bhawanipur, Lansdowne, Golf Green, Kasba Lake Gardens and Topsia have always been the preferred hotspots when it comes to investing in property in this part of the city. The city has even extended its boundaries to the southern fringes like Garia, Sonarpur, Narendrapur, Maheshtala, Behala, Thakurpukur which has gained momentum at a feverish pace and witnessed rapid development in recent years.
Meeting aspirations
Manifold reasons make south Kolkata a favoured location for home buyers. Compared to other metros, real estate prices in Kolkata are still within affordable ranges and thus different buyers can strive to purchase property. While the aspirational value of possessing a home in any of these upscale neighbourhoods is a key factor, urbanization, strategic location, lower asset prices and social infrastructure development have also been pivotal to unleashing the economic potential of these areas. The bevy of new residential properties by top builders are catering to the demands of the well-travelled home buyer – in addition to providing the various modern amenities and facilities, they also have a keen eye on open space reserves (OSR) to provide the buyers with their personal haven of peace and tranquility.
Connecting lives
The luxurious residences have been complemented by rise in the number of healthcare centres, educational institutions, shopping centres and IT infrastructure. Expansion of the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass, enhanced Metro connectivity, development of many new flyovers and other facilities like Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) are also crucial growth stimulators. Not only are these factors providing a fillip to the comforts of living in south Kolkata but also spurring increased demands for residential properties in these areas.
