The words ‘Namma Metro’ plastered across barricades to keep traffic out of construction sites and a new development every 4 kilometers, is how one can tell they’ve reached Kanakapura Road. South Bangalore‘s potential has already been spoken of, and placing their faith in its infrastructure, both social and physical, Sobha Limited has launched several properties in and around the area including Sobha Forest View.

Sobha Forest View- A Walk Around The Project

Namma Metro’s Phase II accompanies the ride across the stretch of the long road and NICE Road gives way to areas across Bangalore (including North) on one end, while BTM bus stop on the other end offers connectivity to Central and Southern Bangalore.

The Turahalli forest brings in a breath of fresh air that relieves construction work in the area. Educational institutions like Valley school, Kumarans, DPS, including options for higher education like JSS, R.V and more are a short drive away from the area. Foodies rejoice – restaurants, fast food chains, pubs and restaurants don’t require a painfully long journey. Nor is it required for hospitals and convenience stores.

When it comes to the question of painful travel, the airport and railway station aren’t too far yet. Kempegowda International Airport is an hour and 50 minutes away, while the Central Railway Station is an hour away.

While these attract the attention of residents, Kanakapura is also set to attract further investment and tourist attention with ISKCON’s 28 acre large Indian version of Disneyland.

Sobha Forest View- A Glimpse

Sobha Forest View offers 2, 3 and 4 BHK homes over 4 phases – Cedar, Ebony, Alder, Maple – with the first three coming up for possession soon. These homes offer 492 options of apartments for those seeking both luxurious and affordable homes.  

The project ‘Forest View’ lives up to its name through several aspects of its execution, including the name of the several blocks, the landscaping and acres of wooded-greens along with a peaceful 100 ft. wide road and the fact that the project is neighbour to a dense forest.

The proximity to and the idea of ‘oneness with nature’ doesn’t equate to compromises in the amenities department. With leisure locations, gardens, sport amenities, fitness arenas and convenience facilities all being covered, there’s nothing left to the imagination at the location.

Sobha Forest View- A Walkthrough

The various blocks at the project have different offerings – Cedar and Ebony with 156 units, 26 floors and 3 BHK homes; Alder with 85 units, 17 floors and 4 BHK homes; and Maple with 240 units, 20 floors and 3 BHK homes. Homes at Sobha Forest view are priced at a rate of Rs 6108 per sq.ft. Here’s everything we looked at when we took a walk around the project:

The first are the gardens and woods. A project steeped in nature, and what it has to offer couldn’t do without these. The former spans a maze garden, aroma and herb garden, central garden, a lawn and a gazebo. The latter, meanwhile, includes a palm grove, dense greens, a pebble pathway, and a bird bath.

The second includes sport facilities that one can’t do without. These include badminton and tennis courts, a cricket pitch, indoor games facilities, volleyball court, skating rink and more. Third includes fitness options which further help keep up with health through a fully equipped gym, a jogging track, aerobics and to slow it down, a meditation kiosk.

To relax from all the activity are leisure facilities. These include a swimming pool with a pool deck and a separate kids pool for a quick and relaxing swim, a steam room to blow off some steam, a reading area and an amphitheatre for those who love the arts, a senior citizen kiosk keeping the elderly in mind and a children’s play area for the young ones.

With Bangalore’s notorious traffic, the pain of having to drive for basic needs can be a hassle. Here’s where conveniences come in, towards an important number fifth of our list. An in-house ATM, clinic, creche, a full-fledged 4 floor and 28000 sq.ft. clubhouse with sport and fitness amenities along with multipurpose halls, a convenience store, substation and paved walkways ensure hassle-free comfortable living.

The sixth includes features that are often overlooked, but are extremely important. This includes electricals like a split AC provision in living room and all bedrooms, standby power units, electrical points and exhaust fans; flooring like laminated wooden flooring in the master bedroom, superior quality tiles appropriate to each section of the house and miscellaneous facilities like intercom facilities from security cabin to each apartment, covered car park and more.

All amenities considered, if you’d like to beat the growing pollution in a city like Bangalore and live amidst nature, then this project is perfect for you.
