Home buyers in Hyderabad usually look for properties with numerous amenities, even if they buy a standard home. Therefore, it could be difficult for a person to distinguish between a standard home and a luxury property. Anand Narayanan, president – marketing, sales and CRM, Puravankara Limited, explains that luxury homes have certain basic criteria that need to be fulfilled.
“Buyers expect an exclusive experience, when they buy luxury homes. The most distinctive feature of a luxury home, is the amenities it offers, along with its location. Other defining features of a luxury home, include best-in-class interiors, state-of-the-art home technology, superior quality kitchens, recreational facilities such as swimming pool, play area for children and adults, fitness centre, etc.,” adds Narayanan.
Key factors that define a luxury property in Hyderabad
- Location is of prime importance. The geographical and cultural surroundings play a vital role in developing a luxury project.

- The property should offer large floor space and serenity, along with amenities such as modern flooring, modular kitchens, exotic bathrooms with world-class fittings and latest home technologies.
