Analysis

Builder & Project Review:
Kalpataru Radiance is the latest challenger from this leading western region brand to launch into an ever more crowded market of Goregaon, but this time, the product has focused on what users might actually want rather than useless gimmicks. Kalpataru Radiance takes the DNA of traditional Kalpataru designs and improves on it in most areas. It delivers on consumer needs for space and amenities which the market was craving for.

Launched in April 2013, this was one of the most anticipated products in Goregaon. It received a tremendous response in the pre-launch phase.

Connectivity:

The project boasts of a very good location. It offers excellent connectivity. With new infrastructure projects in the form of flyovers and metro coming in, the location is poised to become one of the most sought after locations in Goregaon. With projects like Ekta Tripolis, Sunteck City, The Imperial; the area is going to have a facelift in future as well.

Master Plan:

It’s a small 4.3-acre plot yet it has been designed well, a C-shaped design where 4 towers are slotted in. The good thing is that there is the distance between all 4 towers allowing cross ventilation within the complex. The plot is a rectangle and is Vastu compliant to a lot of extents. The elevation at this moment is not finalized though it seems. Recommended flats are on the lower floors if you are going to a garden facing flat or higher floor if you are going for a non-garden facing view. Mind you there are MHADA towers coming up next to the Radiance site so views might get blocked. As on date, the same are open. Where you might see the sea on one side and lush Aarey green from the higher floors of these towers. The project boasts of top of the line amenities:

1. Air-conditioned apartments
2. Imported marble flooring.
3. 8 feet high laminate finished entrance door and paint finished internal doors
4. Synchronised light at the main door & Home automation system comprising of mood lighting in all rooms.
5. Granite flooring in kitchen with Granite main platform
6. Imported marble/European designer tile dado up to door height
7. Premium international sanitary and CP fittings

Floor Plan:
A look at the 4 BHK plan (a rare typology in this Andheri, Goregaon belt) and you will be pleasantly surprised. It’s majestic. It opens into a huge 500 sq. ft. living room with an additional deck space. This is Luxury! Need I say more, 4 spacious bedrooms, a servant room, and huge kitchen? These are places in the sky if you have the budget go for it.

Now before we look at the other floor plans let me tell you that there are 2 wings having separate configurations. The 3 BHK’s follow the same pattern, they are well designed and spacious. Decently sized bedrooms 140 sq. ft. and a living cum dining room of 330 sq. ft. Its good space provided by the developer in a cramped city like Mumbai.

There are multiple types of 2 BHK’s. The ones in A wing are highly recommended for end use, they are spacious and designed well, the ones in C wing are small and seem to be designed only for investors.

Our Opinion

1. Brand
