Two highly competitive addresses from Brigade Group currently vie for attention in East Bangalore: Brigade Granada in Kadugodi and Brigade Sanctuary along Sarjapur-Varthur Road. While both feature the reputable brand name of a builder, in terms of comparison for buyers and investors, there is little doubt that Brigade Granada edges its competitor on almost every front. The full list follows below.
A Significantly Larger Township, Without Comparison
While Brigade Granada Kadugodi covers a vast area of 40 acres, nearly triple that of the 14-acre site on which Brigade Sanctuary stands, even accounting for both townships having been planned with a lot of open spaces in mind, the difference in size translates into larger areas of actual green space, broader roads within the township, and a perception of lower density once construction is completed. When comparing luxury apartments for sale in East Bangalore on the sole criterion of township size, Granada wins hands down.
Family-Oriented Units vs Studio-Friendly Configurations
The Brigade Granada has only 2.5, 3, and 4 BHK units, unlike Brigade Sanctuary which starts at 1 BHK. In essence, the latter is designed primarily to accommodate young singles and studio apartment lovers whereas the former has units that favor families as the occupants. While Brigade Sanctuary's unit mix caters to renters and investors keen on generating rental income, Brigade Granada has units that will cater to homebuyers.
Hoskote Road Whitefield: A New Real Estate Narrative
Real estate located in Whitefield Hoskote Road has proved to be one of the most exciting narratives in recent times in East Bangalore and Brigade Granada Whitefield Hoskote finds itself right in the thick of things. It has been developed as a brigade new project in Hoskote and brigade new project in Kadugodi concurrently. Therefore, it benefits from the growth narrative being played out on two fronts: Whitefield IT corridor on one hand and Bangalore Hoskote corridor on the other.
Access to the Whitefield IT Corridor
Given the close distance of Brigade Granada from the Whitefield IT Corridor and Kadugodi, which is 10 and 5 minutes away respectively, Brigade Granada ensures its occupants easy access to one of the mature employment IT belts of Bangalore. Whereas the Sarjapur-Varthur location of Brigade Sanctuary provides its occupants with IT-corridor connectivity, the existing employment belt of Whitefield means Brigade Granada will attract more stable tenants compared to the developing IT business parks.
Access via Metro and Rail Already Established
The future metro connectivity of Brigade Granada at the proposed Kadugodi Tree Park Metro Station, in addition to existing access to Kadugodi and Whitefield Railway Stations, ensures residents of Brigade Granada have multiple modes of transport and connectivity, which is not limited to road connectivity alone.
Starting Entry Pricing with Scope to Move Up the Scale
The Brigade Granada starting price currently stands at about ₹1.45 Cr for a 2.5 BHK, all the way up to ₹2.12 Cr for the larger 3/4 BHK options. They are real family apartments rather than tiny apartments meant for starters. While Brigade Sanctuary starting price may seem low, that is simply because it is starting with a tiny 1 BHK apartment of 656 sq. ft. It becomes evident that pricing of Brigade Granada is reasonable for a family size house at early stages.
Proximity to Seegahalli Road Means More Travel Route Options
Apart from proximity to employment zones, the Brigade Granada property offers additional advantage in terms of proximity to Seegahalli Road in Bangalore, which means an additional arterial road option along with the Whitefield Hoskote Road.
The Same Trusted Developer, Improved Positioning
While both developments benefit from Brigade Group's well-known reputation for quality and prompt delivery, there is no difference when it comes to developer risk factors. The key factor making the choice one way or another is positioning. Brigade Granada features a larger township, more family-friendly mix of configurations, and a corridor that is yet to catch up Whitefield Hoskote Road vs. more developed Sarjapur-Varthur corridor where Sanctuary stands.
Summary
If you are an investor who just wants to get into the property market with the minimum possible amount of money and invest in a small 1 BHK flat, there is something to say about Brigade Sanctuary. However, if you are comparing the two east Bangalore upcoming projects on the basis of scale, family-friendly configuration mix and proximity to the IT corridor, then Brigade Granada is the better choice. With a larger township, family-friendly design, emphasis on 3 BHK flats in Sannatammanahalli and large configurations and connection to the Whitefield IT and Hoskote stretches, this project appears to be a more comprehensive investment.
