North Bangalore..
The
demand for high-end residential units remains high in the North Bangalore
region. Residential real estate activity in North Bangalore has gained traction
post the commencement of the Bangalore International Airport.
The
projects located around Hebbal, Bellary Road and surrounding areas are in the
luxury segment. North Bangalore is assured to be the next economic centre of
Bangalore.
Proximity
to the International Airport and planned social & the physical
infrastructure in the North have boosted development in the area. Embassy Lake
Terraces, RMZ Latitude, Karle Zenith, Equinox, Embassy Boulevard are some of
the high-end projects in the North Bangalore.
South Bangalore..
The
demand for high-end residential developments is low in the South.
The
housing requirement in this area increased after Electronic City established
itself as an IT Hub in this micro-market.
However,
it did not attract premium residential developments due to poor urban and
social infrastructure.
East Bangalore..
Whitefield
as a micro-market has developed into a self-sustaining area. Along with being
an IT destination, this area has good social infrastructure & developing
physical infrastructure.
Hence,
the demand for luxury residential developments remains high.
Adarsh
Palm Meadows, Prestige White Meadows, Chaithanya Sharan, Windmills of Your Mind
are some of the luxury projects in this market.
West Bangalore..
This
micro-market has not been successful in attracting many real estate developers
as it fails on the count of good social infrastructure.
It
is mainly dominated by industrial developments & has seen hardly any
developments in high-end residential developments.
