Analysis

Builder & Project Review:
When Rajesh Lifespace launched White city, they took up the biggest hoarding in Mumbai to advertise the launch, Needless to say, the project received sufficient attention from the target group. At the same time with the decent brand name that Rajesh commands in the market, the project looked like a sure shot winner. Located in Kandivali east, the white city boasts of some of the best amenities available in the suburban region. Let's do quick fact check of the project

Quick Fact Check

1. Split AC in living room and bedrooms
2. Italian marble flooring in living & dining room
3. Anodized aluminium windows
4. Granite kitchen service platforms along with water purifier
5. Anti-skid marble/vitrified tiles in bathrooms
6. Premium sanitary fittings in all bathrooms with vanity counters
7. Segregation of wet and dry areas
8. Wi-Fi enabled lobbies
9. Well-equipped gymnasium
10. Exquisite cabana
11. Dedicated jogging track
12. Lavish swimming pool
13. Contemporary deck with lounge seating
14. Superior clubhouse
15. Badminton
16. Squash
17. Table tennis
18. Gymnasium
19. Games room

Master Plan:
If we look at the project layout we can see project buildings laid out in a curvature with the clubhouse in the middle. The rest of the amenities are relatively well spaced out. With the entrance of the project on Akurli Road, the buildings on east side of the plot will be closer to the national park. The layout looks well- spaced out with sufficient spacing between the buildings.  

Floor Plan:
White city offers the whole gamut of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments

If we look at the typical floor plan of 1 bedroom apartment, we can see that the entrance is in 3 and a half feet wide lobby. The bedroom is a bit smaller to our liking. Although the size of kitchen and toilets are sufficient and the second toilet is a plus, living and dying areas are quite small

Coming to the 2 BHK plan, although the master bedroom is sufficient the second bedroom size is small again. The same issue which is there with one bedroom floor plan that is off kitchen right next to the entrance which will ensure lack of privacy for residents exists here too. 
The three bedroom plan is less efficient as compared to the previous two with the good amount of space wasted in the entrance lobby. Again, the master bedroom size is sufficient but is seriously lacking in others. Overall, White city boasts of decent floor plans which could have been more efficient and spacious.

Location:
White city is located in Kandivali east very close to the national park. The location will ensure that the project gets very good views and is close to nature. Lokandwala’s project is also located very close to it. There is no problem of social infrastructure as well. The only issue is that the distance from the western express highway is relatively more. At the same time, it's a quite far suburban rail network. In addition, the project is very close slums as well.


Our Opinion

Pros:
1. Location
2. Brand name of Rajesh Life spaces
3. Decent master plan
4. Social Infrastructure around the project

Cons:
1. Slums around the project
2. Distance from WEH and Railway Stations
3. Relatively small carpet areas

Ratings:
    Location     :     

    Layout       :     

    Amenities   :     

    Floor Plan   :     

Final verdict:
It is a decent project from a reputed developer and can surely be considered as an option if you are more focused on amenities and can do away with relatively smaller bedrooms in the apartments.
