5 Reasons You Can’t Ignore the Undeniable Charm of Living in Gated Communities

The gated community living trend is catching on with new-gen homebuyers. It is hard to not fall for the promise of incomparable exclusivity, luxe amenities and heightened security.  Unsurprisingly, a report by Redseer, a leading management consultant, predicts that by 2026, at least 24 million households in India will be living in a gated community. Embracing this growing trend, Brigade Laguna emerges as a shining example of a gated community that fulfills these desires. Nestled in the heart of North Bangalore, this prestigious project boasts a wide range of world-class amenities, including landscaped gardens, a fully equipped fitness center, swimming pool, children's play area, and much more. 

Much deliberation goes into the decision to buy a home. At some point, the homebuyers are bound to start focussing on the ‘must-haves’ rather than the ‘great-to-haves’ – such as additional security, high return value, a neighbourhood of like-minded people or even the right number of rooms for the family. A gated community in Bangalore holds a lot of promise in striking the right balance between luxury and convenience.

Here are a few advantages of a gated community that could influence your home-buying decision, whether it is to stay, rent out or as an investment option:

• Assured Privacy, Safety & Security – Gated communities come at a higher premium, especially for residents' security and exclusivity. Safety and security in gated communities will always be top-notch and multi-layered. 24/7 security personnel, controlled entry and exit with boom barrier gates, biometric access to the main lobby, surveillance cameras in common areas, primary fire safety systems, video door phone systems, window sensors, etc. are some security measures in a gated community.

• Community Living & Amenities – Living in a gated community automatically brings major lifestyle changes owing to top-notch amenities and being amidst like-minded people. Having leisure and fitness amenities such as a cycling path, jogging track, swimming pool, health club, multisport ground, green parks, or walkways within the gated community saves you the hassle of going out for fitness or exercise. You also tend to develop a sense of harmony and unity while participating in community-building activities during important events or festive seasons. 

• Accessibility & Location Advantages – A key advantage of gated communities is that the location is thoughtfully planned so that everything the residents require to lead a comfortable life is close at hand. Schools, colleges, malls, parks, temples, grocery stores or even theatres are often within walking distance. Gated communities are also known for their serene locales away from city noise and pollution. 

• Eco-friendly Environment – Today widely-travelled homebuyers are more conscious about living and investing in sustainable residential projects. Gated communities cater to eco-friendly lifestyles by balancing the available natural resources like sunlight, rainwater, and energy across all residences within a community. Such residential communities by top developers have smart technologies to promote water and power conservation and often encourage planting trees and plants so residents can breathe fresh air that’s devoid of pollution.

• High Property Value – Gated communities attract homebuyers and real estate investors equally for the overall high value of the property. Apartments in gated communities are often valued higher than those that are not. If you are looking at a high future selling price or ROI, gated communities by trusted builders are certainly a promising investment option.

Conclusion

The choice of housing is one that immensely influences the whole family life, their well-being, social life, work life, education and activities. The new generation of homebuyers prefers gated communities over regular housing complexes for certain values, such as a sense of community, prestige and security to a lifestyle upgrade.

Even when regular housing projects offer similar amenities, the quality and standard of those in gated communities tends to be many notches up. Premium gated communities even have valet parking, personal elevators, spa, private pools and high-end restaurants.
