Thane: A coveted location for buying property

There’s long since been a belief within confines of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, and the Greater MMR that the area you grow up in or spend a significant amount of time in is your stomping ground. It is the space you are most comfortable in and the area most people are reluctant to leave. Each locale in and around Mumbai entice its residents with a unique charm- the vintage, old world allure of Colaba, the artistic expression of Bandra West or Kala Ghoda, the enthusiastic young bustle of Andheri- creating friendly competition between locales. Each is an ecosystem and personality of its own. And yet, in the recent past there’s been a shift in attitude. Residents are noticing the beauty and comforts of areas they never considered, owing to one key change in the city; infrastructure.

Today there is a greater fluidity between zip codes. People relocating from the suburbs to the city, the city to the outskirts, the outskirts to the CBDs, the list goes on. One such area that has seen a greater influx of interest is Thane; a city unto itself, outside the rush and rumble of Mumbai.

So why has Thane become such a coveted location? Let’s find out.

1. Connectivity: A thorn in our side or a benefit we are yet to knowledge? Enduring traffic tantamount to simply standing still, city dwellers have braved the narrowing road, constant digging, and unrelenting struggle of getting from place to place. We have lived for close to a decade with the promise of a Metro, finally coming to be. With these points of connectivity making the accesses to less congested localities effortless, are you far removed from your comfort zone? If your average travel time within the city is an hour and a bit anyway, no matter your destination, would you rather the confined footprint of a home in the city centre or a spacious apartment in Thane? Location was always the boon of a developer, today connectivity is its key.
2. Infrastructure: Consider only the infrastructure of Thane, and you are graced with an efficiently designed city. Wide roads and pavements make travel by wheel or foot that much easier and safer, close access to nature courtesy of Yeoor Hills and the Upvan Lake for that relaxation and mental peace, some of the most exciting entertainment with large scale malls, and social hubs, and city planning that curbs the problem of overcrowding. Everybody speaks of high end, but when you consider all these factors, you truly get luxury apartments in Thane.

3.A Cleaner Environment: With the expanse of green cover and lakes in Thane, it’s no surprise that the city is cleaner by way of pollution and air quality that its Mumbai counterpart. The AQI of Thane has almost consistently been lower than that of Mumbai, making it a healthier environment for most people, after all, we all want to feel our lungs fill with clean air instead of smog. This crucial aspect has also become the deciding factor for families with children who want to give their kids the benefits of fresh air, the peace of nature, and the wide spaces for merriment because let’s be honest, you can only run around so much in a small flat in the city- sometimes you just need a park. Unbeknownst to most of them, every developer in Thane is building for a happier, healthier, future generation.

4.Bigger House, Smaller Price Tag: Mumbai as a city is starved of space. It is the city of big dreams, and small homes- a fact most people are acutely aware of and have reluctantly come to terms with. That’s exactly where Thane thrives. A 2BHK at Ghodbunder Road is more affordable and of greater square footage than the average new development 2BHK in Mumbai’s Western Suburbs making it a beautiful location for young professionals, first time home buyers, families and even the elder population who benefit from the comfort of space as well as the peace of nature. Space afforded to each family in a city like Thane that’s simply bursting with room is that developers are not confined to a minute project footprint, but are able to create buildings respectful of the surroundings, adding to the greenery, and spaciously comfortable to be called a home.

There’s so much to love about Thane, which is why it is fast becoming one of the most coveted locations for home owners, so if you’re one of them, keep your eyes peeled, because there’s a home out there for you.
