The country specific
themed homes trend has already caught on with luxury home buyers in Mumbai,
Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune has not been left behind...!
Developers of
residential projects in Pune city are increasingly challenged by buyers' rapidly
evolving tastes & preferences in
luxury housing.
A decade ago, luxury
housing in Pune city was mainly about larger spaces, fancy facades and
amenities which were considered modern back then. Today, exposure to
international concepts in luxury homes has changes the very perception of what
really consitutes 'luxury'.
Luxury
Projects..!
Indian residential
developers / promoters have already tackled various themes for their luxury
projects. Among them, the sports theme has been an enduring one.
Areas in Pune such as
Balewadi & Gahunje on the Mumbai - Pune Expressway have seen their share of
projects that bask in the reflected glory of the sports stadia there.
However, there are
limitations to this theme - not every luxury house buyer is a sports enthusiast.
For those who are not
but still seek a radically different lifestyle, the country-based theme holds
far more fascination. For instance, the Mediterranean theme has seen quite a
bit of action in India.
In the man-made hill
station of Lavasa, an entire mountain range is being transformed to evoke the
peaceful grandeur of Venice. HCC has been largely successful in achieving this.
Nevertheless,
Lavasa's distance from Pune is not really suitable for themed house seekers
professionally active within Pune City. Meanwhile, the desire for themed houses
in Pune continues to grow.
The country-specific
themed homes trend has already caught on with luxury home buyers in Mumbai,
Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune
has not been left behind.
This is not hard to
understand. Most of Pune's HNIs are inveterate international travelers. Their
world view is commensurately large. It is not possible to visit a country such
as Singapore or / Greece without bringing indelible memories back home. This
creates a yearning to live in an evironment which reflects both the
architectural styles and the lifestyles witnessed in those countries.
Singapore, in
particular, is a country which almost every Puneite with an appetite for world
travel has seen - in many cases, on a fairly regular basis.
Many of Pune's
industrialists and technocrats have business interests in Singapore - a country
defined by both natural and man-made beauty, orderliness and security. Their
affinity for the 'Singapore life' is a ground reality for them... and yet, Pune
is the city they would rather call home.
This was the fact
that inspired Amit Enterprises Housing Ltd. to launch Bloomfield, the multiple
award-winning Singapore-themed luxury homes projects in serene Ambegaon.
This immensely
successful project offers luxurious bungalows, villas and flats in a scheme
which draws inspiration from Singapore’s ethnic, yet cosmopolitan lifestyle. In
fact, legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar himself owns a luxurious bungalow at
Bloomfield - but one does not need to be a legend to own a home there.
The trend for themed
houses in India is bound to increase as more & more luxury home buyers look
for unique points of differentiation in projects. Something in all of us is
constantly reaching out to concepts and lifestyles from beyond our borders,
even as we gain in appreciation for the merits of being an Indian on Indian
soil.
As a result, the
demand for themed homes among NRIs hailing from Pune particularly noteworthy.
After all, such projects allow them to replicate the lifestyles they have grown
accustomed to abroad - back home.
