Over the
last two decades or so, Pune has seen some fabulous growth. It is considered
one of the primary IT hubs in the country, along with Bangalore and Hyderabad.
The ‘IT hub’ tag has attracted migrant population to the city, which in turn
has spurted growth.
What has
also helped the city is its largely young demographic, and proximity to Mumbai.
Until the 1990s, Pune was a sleepy town with little to boast of. Today, it can
boast of some of the classiest neighborhoods in the country.
If you are
planning to move to Pune and want to live in plush luxury, here is a list of
some of the best neighborhoods of Pune to live in.
Sopan Baug
The area
gets its name from a fruit orchard that it located nearby. The highlight of the
area is its tranquility and serenity, which makes it an attractive destination
for retirees as well as people looking for a break from bustling city life.
Sopan Baug
is located near the cantonment area, and offers good connectivity to the
airport, Koregaon Park, and Kalyani Nagar. It has some of the plushest
residential colonies of Pune.
Since there
is no space constraint, most builders have built expansive apartments here,
which give you a feel of living in a bungalow. Clover
Belvedere Sopan Baug is especially a residential project worth checking
out.
Sopan Baug
serves as a classy destination for settling down, and a good investment
opportunity as well.
Kharadi
Kharadi has
quickly become an important IT destination of the city. The area has seen
stupendous development over the past five years, with many IT companies setting
up their business here. Proximity to Kalyani Nagar and Viman Nagar, which are
prime locations of the city, make Kharadi an ideal destination to settle in for
working professionals.
The influx
of working demographic has meant that Kharadi has seen rapid housing
development as well. There are plush residential areas as well as budget
housing available in the area.
Projects
like Forest
County Kharadi, Pune give you ample value for your money. Like Sopan
Baug, Kharadi too is a good place to settle in, and is a good investment
opportunity too.
Kalyani Nagar
When
counting the swankiest localities of Pune, you cannot count out Kalyani Nagar.
The area is named after Dr. Neelkanth Kalyani, who helped kick-start
development in the area. In a 2005 survey, Kalyani Nagar was voted as the
locality with the most promise in the real estate market. It is a hotbed for IT
companies and enjoys a good mix of cultures.
Property
rates in Kalyani Nagar are comparable to those in Sopan Baug, and it is a
preferred destination for working professionals. There are some really good
realty projects in the area. In fact, Verde Pune
is a project worth checking out in Kalyani Nagar.
The
bottom-line: If you are seeking peace and tranquility, Sopan Baug is the place
to be, with Clover Belvedere, Pune a project worth checking out in the area. If
you are looking to be amidst the action, Kalyani Nagar and Kharadi are the
places to settle down in.
