Township projects back in vogue

Townships are back in vogue. With the property market recovering, builders are again focussing on this concept in Kozhikode.

Many of them offer townships within the city as a unique selling proposition.

The Chennai-based Prime Realty has come up with a villa project in a sprawling locale at Kuttiyilthazham close to the proposed Cyber Park.

There will be 26 villas on 2.5 acres of land, near the proposed link road connecting the Ramanattukara-Thondayad bypass and the Meenchanda mini bypass.

“The current market scene has made builders stress new models. Buyers will not simply be tempted to choose a villa or flat with regular features,” says M. Rajeevkumar, director of the project.

Each villa has an area of approximately 2,000 sq ft, bound by a compound wall, on 5.5 cents to 8 cents of land.

A tennis court, a children’s park, a playground, a swimming pool, a clubhouse, a multi-gym and a common parking area for visitors will come up on an acre of land. Round-the-clock security will be provided.

“Each villa will be fully furnished. An LCD TV will be provided. Customers can just walk into their dream home,” Mr. Rajeevkumar says.

The priced will be about Rs.50 lakh. There are different modes of payment. Either the land will be registered in the buyer’s name initially or the client will have the option to make payments in instalments during the various stages of the project, Mr. Rajeevkumar says.

“Townships have successfully gained acceptance in major metros. Earlier, housing projects were focussed in areas near hospitals and schools. Now, it is done in a better fashion with modern amenities,” he says.

Flats and villas

The Calicut Landmark Builders has launched a project at Methottuthazham Junction, near Pottammal, close to the proposed Cyber Park.

There will be 40 villas and 200 flats on six acres of land.

The flats will be in two towers — one 11-storeyed and the other 17-storeyed.

The luxury villas and apartments will have amenities such as a swimming pool, a modern and well-equipped gymnasium and a walkway, says K. Arunkumar, managing director, Calicut Landmark Builders.

“The timely completion of our earlier township project near Kanndaikkal has given us the confidence to go ahead with the new township,” he says.

Townships help working couples.
