Buying a second home is more than just a luxury; it is a move towards an enhanced lifestyle and financial gains. Urban life’s fast pace prompts many to seek rejuvenation, leading to weekend retreats in serene locales. Second homes, away from the busy city life, are, thus, becoming increasingly popular.
Kasara is one such location where the landscape of residential projects is rapidly expanding, attracting both homebuyers and investors. Looking at Kasara as a real estate development destination is a smart choice, thanks to substantial growth in residential developments and public infrastructure. Over time, property values have notably appreciated, making it an appealing location.
Accelerated by the pandemic-induced social and behavioural norms, reduced home loan interest rates and stamp duty cuts, people’s preferences have transitioned towards living in scenic environs. Kasara offers a picturesque location among the lush green Sahyadri mountain range, excellent weather, better AQI and a healthier lifestyle. Beautiful monsoons with fog and mist, cold and crisp winters and breezy summers add to the allure of Kasara.
Shift in the preferences
Over the years, people have been drawn to the vibrancy of city centres. However, the landscape has transformed with the advent of remote working and hybrid working cultures, prompting a change in the mindset. Fuelled by the newfound convenience of working from anywhere, these individuals are actively exploring living options that extend beyond the bustling confines of city centres. This shift has spurred builders to redirect their focus towards the tranquil peripheries where they are strategically crafting larger and more spacious homes to align with customers’ desire to live away from the central business districts of crowded cities.
Connectivity
For the occasional instance where one needs to get to the city, Kasara Ghat offers excellent road connectivity via the Mumbai-Nashik Highway (NH-3), facilitating easy access by car, taxi or bus from Mumbai, Nashik and neighbouring cities. Connectivity is further improved with the Kalyan-Kasara 3rd Line railway project. The Samruddhi Mahamarg Route will further redefine the market and surrounding real estate, fostering commercial and residential properties. Whether for living or investment, properties along Samruddhi Mahamarg hold promising prospects, providing unparalleled connectivity to Mumbai, Nashik and Nagpur. Kasara is an important railway junction situated in the northeastern sector of the central line, providing access via local and express trains.
Healthier life option
People gather here for leisure, sports and adventure, enjoying activities, such as trekking, hiking and mountain climbing. Proximity to popular holiday spots adds to its charm, making Kasara a hub for a fulfilling and vibrant life. All the dams supplying water to Mumbai are located in this region and stringent regulations prohibit polluting industries in the area, ensuring a clean and sustainable environment. Nearby tourist attractions include Ashoka Waterfalls, Reserve Forest, Igatpuri Hill Station, Kasara Ghat, Bhatsa Dam, Tansa Dam, Manas Mandir, Vipassana Centre, Bhavali Dam and Vaitarna Dam, enhancing the region’s allure and adding to its value. ITC Fortune and Hyatt are soon going to develop hotels in this region.
Next investment hotspot
Kasara stands out as a promising destination for both lifestyle enhancement and smart real estate investments. Its rapid growth in residential developments, improved connectivity and proximity to major cities make it a hotspot for those seeking a tranquil yet accessible living experience. The allure of Kasara lies in its investment potential and the promise of a healthier and fuller life amidst nature’s beauty. As the real estate landscape evolves, Kasara continues to be a beacon for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle, offering a blend of serenity and investment opportunities
