Devanahalli-One airport and a whole lot of development

Rewind back to 2000 or an earlier year and you would not have wanted to live in Devanahalli. It was a typical peasant’s neighbourhood where roads never existed and water scarcity was always rampant. But times change, especially in real estate they change at the speed of light. That is what happened with the property prices in Devanahalli when the Kempegwoda International airport commenced operations in 2008. One airport and Devanahalli has made itself amply visible in India’s fastest growing IT city, Bangalore.

Reaching Devanahalli

Devanahalli is located on the northern part of Bangalore, almost 35 Kms from city centre. Quick way to reach is through the NH 47, also known as the Bangalore-Hyderabad Highway or the Bellary Road. Further, NH 7 and 207 also snail through this village bring the metro close like neighbourhood.

NH 7 from Hebbal to Devanahalli with its 6 lanes roads (to be increased further in the near future) makes it possible to reach the airport within thirty to forty minutes. With the execution of the metro Phase 2 plan, Devanahalli will also have metro connectivity to airport.

Devanahalli’s growth story

The land rush at Devanahalli began with the signing of the MoU between AAI and KSIIDC in 2005 to build the Kempegowda International airport. By the time the first phase was completed in 2008, almost every inch of land in Devanahalli was taken over by real estate promoters and developers for manifold times of the original prices.

Per acre cost of Devanahalli was a humble number in 1990s. Come 2008, the price shot up to Rs. 250/sq.ft and today it is almost 1500/sq.ft. Most promoters are yet to commence construction here, but it is definite that the prices will skyrocket further higher.

Residential and industrial development

The many industrial parks present in Devanahalli are sure to boost the residential and commercial development in the region. Three more parks exclusively for hardware, aerospace and IT/BT are proposed in the region which will boost residential development and industrial activities in the region. NH 7, NH 207 and NH 4 will provide ample road connectivity without any traffic bottlenecks.

250 acres of land are set aside for developing the M.S.Ramaiah Medical Research Centre to cater to the educational requirements of the city as a whole. Schools, colleges and other social infrastructure facilities necessary for comfortable living are also adequately present in Devanahalli.

Housing at its best

Bangalore enjoys a high concentration of HNIs (High Net worth Individuals). Devanahalli also enjoys huge demand for high-end living facilities from the senior management cadre employees of the IT industrial corridor. With sophisticated tastes and an appreciation for serene living they are one reason why the land values in Devanahalli has shot up in such short time.

The demand for affordable housing is also very high. Patel Neo Town, VBHC Attibele, Sovereign Lakefront, Provident Welworth are some of the affordable residential projects in the region. Golden Gate Properties, Purvankara, Shriram Properties, Brigade Group, Ozone Group, etc. are some of the high flying names in luxury housing that are creating the upper class living ambiance in Devanahalli.

The right time to invest in Devanahalli is now. There was no better time in history or will there be in the future when property prices have been so inviting for an aspiring homeowner.
