2.5 Bedroom 1300 Sq.Ft. Apartment in Bandra West Mumbai

Listing ID #8635106

Positives: The area is very well connected with Bandra Railway Station, Sion Bandra Link Road, and the soon to be operational Metro Line 2 making travel easy. The residents have access to quality schools like Mount Mary Convent and St. Andrews, and quality health services like Holy Family and Lilavati Hospital. For recreation, Globus Mall, Pali Hill restaurants, and Bandra's lovely promenades provide excellent alternatives. The combination of high-end and mid-segment housing developments by Wadhwa Group, Sheth Creators, and Supreme Universal Builders makes it attractive for various types of buyers. Negatives: Traffic snarls during rush hour and waterlogging in monsoon monsoons have a tendency to lead to waterlogging in a few low-lying areas, bringing occasional discomforts.

Positives: I purchased my house three years ago, and I wake up grinning still at Carter Road's sea breeze and the Bandstand walkway. The area combines active cafes, boutique stores and iconic street markets with heritage locations such as Mount Mary Basilica and Bandra Fort. There is simple living due to good rail and road connectivity, lively eating, quality schools and a strong community spirit and small cultural events. I really say, it really does feel like a linked, cultured part of Mumbai. Negatives: Two negatives are heavy traffic and limited parking on busy sections, and occasional congestion on promenades on weekends. Some high-priced properties render purchasing here expensive for many. Nevertheless, as a proud proprietor, I adore the vibe, green seafront strolls and neighbourhood camaraderie. It is truely is home for me.

Positives: Of course, who wouldn’t want to live here? I was finally able to afford an apartment here, and that too after paying a steep premium. But the lifestyle is top-class, what with the Bandstand nearby and all the homes of the celebs and Bollywood biggies (we’re talking SRK, Salman, Ranveer-Deepika, and more) to check out. Pali Hill and other posh pockets are also in this locality. Connectivity-wise, there’s the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, which helps me get to South Mumbai quickly. Also, the BKC is nearby, while the Western Express Highway and Bandra railway station are other lifelines. Carter Road is another lovely promenade you can check out, while we also enjoy shopping at Linking Road and Hill Road. Then there’s the Basilica and many other historic places to explore. Negatives: Traffic congestion and parking problems are the only two things that I can honestly think of.

Positives: I’m an owner here and honestly it’s hard to beat the connectivity and energy. The metro, local trains and easy access to the Western Express Highway make commuting simple, and the airport is just a short drive away, which is super convenient. The neighbourhood is filled with good schools, hospitals, shopping malls, restaurants and gyms, so all that I require is within easy reach and the social scene is active and diverse. Negatives: If I had to choose one negative, it's parking and traffic; rush hour is a nightmare and parking is costly or unavailable. Nevertheless, for work, lifestyle and long-term investment, this site receives a five-star from me.

Positives: I have been a resident of Bandra West for years, and I can tell you, this is something special. I mean, where else do you get to have that perfect blend of old-world charm and modern city life? We have it all here. Like lovely, quiet streets with old bungalows to the busy Linking Road with all its new brands and cafes. The connectivity is great with the Sea Link and the railway station. And you can't beat the nightlife and the cosmopolitan feel of the entire place. Negatives: I believe the only major concern for me is parking. With so many visitors coming through, it's always a struggle to find a spot. But it's worth it to be living in the centre of the city, I think.

Positives: I have to say Bandra West is a way of life, not a location. We have everything here, from upscale boutiques on Linking Road to the top restaurants and cafes along Carter Road and Pali Hill. The social life is unparalleled, and convenience of movement is provided by the Bandra-Worli Sea Link and the railway terminus adjacent to it. It’s got a real mix of the old charm and modern luxury. I would say it’s perfect for anyone who wants a vibrant, upscale city life. Negatives: The only thing that I'd raise an eyebrow about is the parking. Getting a spot along the street can be quite a challenge, especially on the weekends when the crowd is enormous.

I have been living here for 5 years in a house as a tenant. According to me, it is a good location with good connectivity and transport facilities. The security of this place is quite good and frequent police patrolling is seen here. The roads are well maintained and without traffic jams. The security is good enough so the people can enjoy the nightlife.
