4 Bedroom 2560 Sq.Ft. Apartment in Gachibowli Hyderabad

Listing ID #9110111

Positives: I lived for a swift year close to the Financial District of Gachibowli. I rather enjoyed the professional advantage. The highlight was being at steps from big IT centres such as Wipro Circle and possessing great, broad roads with Outer Ring Road connectivity. Added to this were top-class social amenities, multi-speciality hospital proximity and the wonderful diversity of restaurants and cafes made life enjoyable. Negatives: Nevertheless, my residence had major drawbacks. The rush hour traffic was an ongoing source of irritation. Making a quick drive is a big problem. We also experienced frequent problems with water supply shortages caused by the sinking groundwater. Finally, the rental rate was considerably higher in other parts of Hyderabad. It was a worthwhile experience, though, and I was relieved to be leaving.

Positives: Gachibowli is exceedingly well linked it's barely 5 km from HITEC City and near the Financial District. Outer Ring Road goes right through, metro is being extended, and national roads connect to nearly all areas of Hyderabad. Renowned schools such as Phoenix Greens, Kendriya Vidyalaya, International B-Schools, large hospitals, malls, and a high concentration of IT companies. Prices are appreciating, which is a boon for investment. Negatives: Traffic gets heavily jammed , particularly in rush hours, and heavy construction at times slows it down. Secondly, some of the internal roads get flooded during rains and waterlogging is an issue. Furthermore, summer season has water supply problems since groundwater levels deplete.

Positives I am temporarily renting here for a couple of months, and Gachibowli certainly has that big tech city vibe. The highlight is the incredible close proximity to the Financial District. My commute to work is virtually nonexistent. And overall, the infrastructure is well planned and modern, complete with a lot of high-end dining and lifestyle facilities around. Negatives: Granted, the convenience comes at a cost. Rents are drastically inflated here. Rush-hour traffic on the Gachibowli main road is brutal with massive delays. Sanitation and trash disposal are abysmal issues in some residential alleys. And, locally, finding cheap local markets is difficult, with everything appearing to be premium shopping-oriented. Still, I wouldn't swap the job access for anything at present.

Positives: The area is a fast-developing one and I moved here when property values were still affordable. Happy to stay near my workplace and there is a huge business cluster, with top MNCs like Amazon, Infosys, Microsoft, Deloitte- you name it and it’s there! Good IT and services crowd in the locality is another plus point, along with the hospitals like Sunshine, Himagiri, and also the reputed institutions like IIT, ISB, and the University of Hyderabad. Negatives: I find it quite attractive even today, despite the slight increase in living costs. Yes, traffic can be intimidating at times, but nothing takes away from the convenience of staying here.
