Feel More At Home In Your Duplex Apartment

By ABAD Admin,

Though very popular across the globe, Duplex flats are a very new concept to us Malayalees. So through this blog we will talk about what duplex flats are and why duplex flats in Kochi are a great living choice for the modern Kochiite.

To begin with, a duplex is a modern apartment style with two floors connected by a private inner staircase. A duplex gives the vibe and utility of an independent house with the added floor and balcony spaces. Duplexes are most popular either on the ground floor or on the top floor as the penthouse. While the penthouse is more to do with high life and luxury, the ground level duplex is about having your own back yard, garden or outside utility spaces. Both have their own benefits and customer segments. Some high end apartments even have inner private lifts in their duplex apartment.

Abad Builders offer premium duplex apartments in Edapally in our apartment project, Abad Oasis. Apart from the additional space there are many comforts that our duplex apartment in Edapally offers, that has made it popular among the young modern Indian. One is his dream of having a house where he goes upstairs to his room to sleep. In this context a duplex feels more like home than a usual apartment. The two levels can also give added privacy.

As Indians we also have stronger family bonds and values and a lot of us prefer our parents to stay with us in the city close to us, rather than far away in our hometown or village. Duplex is a perfect option for such families, where having different floors will help you have them close in a more healthy lifestyle where your young family gets their needed privacy and alone time as well.

Kochi – An Emerging Real Estate Destination

By ABAD Admin,

Kochi is a scenic destination in Kerala that is regularly visited by tourists from both India and abroad due to its pristine and laid back beauty. However, this part of Kerala is also slated to be the next big destination for real estate development as many new projects are coming up here at the present moment. The infrastructural development and closeness to nature are some of the factors due to which many people are now choosing to come and settle down in Kochi. This has led to the widespread demand for apartments and villa projects in Kochi that are currently being developed here by leading real estate groups. The rapidly developing job market of Kochi has also increased the demand for well designed modern homes.

Here are some of the factors that have increased the value of Kochi as a major destination for real estate development.

  • Kochi is on the verge of a major infrastructural development since it has been selected for the Smart City initiative. The city is going to experience major developments in the fields of water management and e-governance. Additional infrastructural enhancement will encompass power and water supply, sanitation, solid waste management, public transport and efficient urban mobility, IT connectivity just to name a few.
  • Compared to many other parts of India, the prices of real estate are rather affordable in different parts of Kochi. Even the villas in Aluva that are located at some of the most strategic points are available at cost effective rates. This is just perfect for families that are looking to have beautiful and nice homes for themselves at affordable rates.
  • The first phase of Kochi Metro Railway that became operational in 2017 connects Aluva to Pettah and runs for about 25 kilometers.

Tips on Furnishing Your Apartment

By ABAD Admin,

When furnishing a new apartment, you have so many dreams and expectations. At the same time you have many constraints of space and structure as well. Let us give you some tips on how to overcome these constraints and furnish your apartment smartly to add space and vibrancy to it. Feel like you are living in your chic boutique apartment in Paris, right at home at your flat in Kochi or Kottayam.

While you can always hire us to give your home unique interiors that perfectly fits your taste and lifestyle, if you prefer to try a hand at it, the experts are here to help. There are various facets of doing your interiors that we keep in mind when designing stylish and comfortable interiors for our clients, which you can explore to make the most of your apartments in Kottayam and Kochi. Some of them are walls, furnitures, and furnishing.

Furniture:

Choose furnitures that are compact and not bulky, say floating shelves. They serve the purpose, are classy and do not take up all your space with attachments, legs or so. You could also opt for quirky furnitures with colours other than the usual brown, blacks and whites. Use vibrant colours suiting your room décor.

Furniture placement and sizing is also equally important. Use furniture to divide rooms into different zones like a living room and a dining room. For example, say you fix your TV on the wall and push your sofa closer. You could place a chest of drawers behind the sofa to give the other room a complete dining room vibe at the same time providing some extra storage space. Also prefer smaller and less bulky furniture to make the room appear more spacious.

Walls:

Play with walls. Use textures, unconventional colours, patterns, wallpapers etc to add life to a room. It is one of the more inexpensive options to add a sense of luxury to your home. If you prefer to go with the popular hues like the whites, choose them wisely to complement the vibe of the room and make it look more airy and roomy.

You can also explore options of hidden storage on walls using inbuilt shelves or racks that can be covered with false walls, curtains etc. Not only do they add storage space but also gives the freedom to leave your stuff messy.

Furnishing:

There may be a lot of constraints to what you can do to walls or furnitures, because they are permanent and more expensive. That is why furnishing is your go to option to explore new styles in décor. Add style to your furniture by adding a nice rug beneath it or colourful cushions on it.

Make a wall stand out with a centrepiece mirror or a large metallic installation. Have fun with the corners with the right kind furnishing like a bean bag, a mattress or cushion to create a perfect spot for some reading or an afternoon nap.

If all these sounds too confusing or difficult to keep in mind, give us a ring and we will take care of the rest. Abad builders prides itself in our expert interior designing service where each design is custom created based on your preferences.

Talk to anyone about Abad, and you will know that they have a good reputation. I went for Knightsbridge for it’s prime location. Another fantastic thing is that the construction quality is good, the quality of work is good and what makes it better is that they delivered it even before the promised time!”

Knightsbridge is made beautiful with broad stairways and cozy corners. It has large windows and doors that make the apartment look spacious, while letting in ample natural light and ventilation. Spread over a landscape of 64.5 cents, Knightsbridge offers 2 and 3 BHK flats with modern interiors and fixtures, befitting of a cosmopolitan urban lifestyle.

Mr. Jose Daniel said “I don’t have much experience in this field, but my experience now is good. I frankly did not expect them to finish this project in such a short period. The location, layout and the total space provided in a house is important when buying a new home and Abad did that for us. We appreciate the large kitchen for the innumerable guests that we tend to have. With the improvements in the infrastructure of Kadavanthara and Panampilly Nagar, Knightsbridge was the perfect choice for me and my family. The customer support team at Abad was very nice and helpful. They gave us regular updates, including pictures of the project every month.”

The rooftop Infinity Pool and Jacuzzi add to the brilliance of Abad Knightsbridge. The rapidly changing urban skyline is sure to give an enthralling experience to anyone enjoying the apartment’s landscaped rooftop terrace or while swimming in its infinity pool.

Mr. Vimal V said, “The basis for buying a new home lies in the reputation of the builder, and the locality. I trusted the work of Abad Builders to be punctual and of good quality, and they proved that I trusted correctly. Knightsbridge attracted me the most as Kadavanthara is a residential area and it is an ideal location for a family, with all the amenities close at hand. What drove me to make a choice with Abad was its exceptional customer service facilities that allowed an easy transaction, from miles away. We feel at home here. We were at Hong Kong when we purchased this flat, and the team helped us a lot. I was away while they managed the entire payment and everything else. I came only once in the four year time span, while everything was handled by them. The whole process was very convenient and friendly; they never made us feel like we were away from home.”

The signature layout of Knightsbridge makes it a unique Villament Project that allows each of its flat units to be completely independent, with no common-sharing walls.

I prefer a location that is close to my mother’s home and I got all of this with Abad Knightsbridge – top quality, neat, organised and convenient location. I need places like the supermarket and everything close by. I am satisfied with Knightsbridge and consider it ideal, because of the trustworthy work of Abad. My decision was also based on the experiences I had with the Abad Resorts around the state. We’ve been here in Kochi, so we’ve known Abad for a very long time.”

 

At Abad Knightsbridge, you truly feel home.

Home is where the heart is…

By ABAD Admin,
 

A plethora of emotions rush into one’s mind upon hearing the word “Home”. And when home is Kerala, these emotions are multiplied with images of pristine backwaters, virgin beaches and flocks of trees, all beautifully enunciating the allure of God’s own country. Kerala not only does a stellar job at sweeping tourists off their feet with its innate riches of green pastures and blue seas, but equally awes its neighbouring states in economic development, culture and art and the topic in discussion, the construction sector.

With the emergence of builders that provide comfort, luxury and affordable pricing, top flats in Kerala have been coveted by NRI’s as well as residents of metro cities like Kochi. The consideration of several factors such as location, accessibility, neighbourhood, amenities, etc., is of utmost importance when opting for luxury flats in Kerala.

The city of Kochi is en route to becoming one of the best cities to live in the country. The growing metropolis is an exciting hub for technology, business and art. The older part of the city, Fort Kochi, ceaselessly maintains its reputation as one of the best tourist destinations in the South, while, Ernakulam (central part of town), serves as the crux for micro-markets in trade and development.

Flats in Kottayam

One is spoilt for choice with the availability of luxury flats in Cochin that deliver quality living spaces with gorgeous interiors and world-class utilities. Marine drive, Panampilly Nagar and Kakkanad are some of the upmarket locations while other sought-after sites include Edappally, Elamakkara, Kalamassery and Thrikkakara which pride themselves as hotspots for affordable flats in Kochi. Bustling with life, these suburbs would be an ideal destination for any family looking for a home in Kerala.

Towards the South-East lies Kottayam, the literature capital of Kerala and an inspiring location that is brimming with rubber plantations, tea estates and evergreen slopes of the Western Ghats. The Kottayam flats skyline is steadily rising with luxury apartments and independent villas as several Keralites are choosing to live in the countryside and commuting to nearby cities for work. Also many ready-to-occupy flats in Kottayam are being purchased as rental investments by those abroad, placing their faith in builder for exceptional delivery and service.

The reputation of the builder, efficient after-sales support, rental and resale assistance, features and specifications are details that cannot be left unnoticed during purchase. Abad Builders offers the best possible deal that comprises superior building quality, customer specific requirements and anacceptable price that takes into account current real estate trends. Inspecting title deed, legal status and floor plan of the project is normal routine before investment, all carefully undertaken by Abad’s team of experts. These ensure that the buyers are well aware of their investment and more importantly, the builder’s reliability.

Be it flats in Kochi overlooking the harbour or one in Kottayam, with a view of birds, fields and waterscapes, Kerala is teeming with surprises that reason with the subconscious and vow to satisfy the dream of living with contentment.
