CHEMBUR: THE NEW PREFERRED ADDRESS IN MUMBAI


Chembur is a well settled and well managed Northeast area of Mumbai city. Two main highways (Mumbai- Nasik & Mumbai-Pune) are pass through Chembur. Chembur is serviced by the harbor line of Central Railways. Chembur started out as an industrial area, but now it is a large residential suburb.

Old bungalows and villas are now making way for high-rise apartments and lifestyle residential 
complexes. Chembur acts as a link between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai and with the eastern freeway, connectivity has greatly advanced in the area, reducing the travel time to various parts of Mumbai.It is well connected to railway stations.

It is near to schools, banks and ATMs. Chembur is listed as the third residential destination in 
Mumbai, to invest in, after Ulwe and Wadala. Chembur can be one of the prime, real estate 
destinations in Mumbai, offering a residential zone and ample space for development. Chembur has a very impressive infrastructure - the monorail and the eastern freeway.

The Mumbai Development Plan of 1991 was instrumental in bringing about key infrastructure projects for decongesting the city center and promoting a transit-oriented development pattern. Consequently, the city’s eastern suburbs of Chembur, Powai, Kanjurmarg etc. have benefited immensely from these policy measures. Areas that had once been characterized by unorganised development and industrial zones, have undergone a noticeable transformation.

DEVELOPMENT

The development of Eastern Freeway has significantly impacted the growth of real estate over the past few years. Due to the reduced commuting time to South Mumbai, demand for commercial and residential properties went up, and housing prices in locations such as Chembur and Ghatkopar increased by approximately 28–30 per cent over the last two years.

 • Close proximity to Santacruz Chembur Link Road, Eastern Express Highway and Western Express Highway making commute easier for people who work almost anywhere.
