Wellness as a value proposition
“Wellness has transformed from a luxury amenity to a fundamental necessity,” says Karishmah Siingh, President – Sales, Marketing and CRM at Sattva Group. Developers are embedding biophilic design, open green spaces, and proximity to natural habitats as core offerings.
Projects such as Sattva Vasanta Skye dedicate up to 80% of land to greenery, with landscaped areas and nearby bird sanctuaries enhancing mental well-being — a factor increasingly considered in property valuation.
Kishore Reddy, Chief Managing Director of Mana Projects, adds, “Eco-friendly materials, smart home technologies, and advanced air and water purification systems are now standard in modern homes.” Features like wellness corners, rooftop gardens, fitness zones, and walking trails not only support healthier daily living but also enhance long-term property appreciation.
Balancing wellness, luxury, and affordability
Wellness is no longer exclusive to premium properties. Siingh explains that foundational integration of air quality systems, natural lighting, and greenery allow developers to extend wellness benefits across price points.
Mid-segment projects focus on essential wellness infrastructure, while premium offerings include concierge services and extensive lifestyle amenities.
Abhishek Tharwani, Director at Tharwani Realty, notes, “Efficient layouts and sustainable materials make wellness-focused homes accessible without inflating costs.” For buyers, this translates to investments that enhance lifestyle without disproportionate financial outlay.
Community-centric design adds value
Shared spaces, courtyards, and multigenerational amenities now serve as both lifestyle enhancers and value-protecting assets.
Siingh observes, “Strong social bonds and intergenerational interaction significantly impact life satisfaction and longevity.”
Aksha Kamboj, Executive Chairperson at Aspect Realty, adds, “Connected communities with wellness zones and co-working hubs increase desirability and market resilience.”
Tier 2 and 3 cities offer cost advantages
Emerging cities provide buyers with larger plots, cleaner air, and expansive wellness infrastructure at lower costs.
Siingh highlights Sattva Kaveri Siri in Mandya, where homes combine wellness-focused design with connectivity to employment centres.
Reddy points out, “Flexible floor plans, walking tracks, and fitness facilities in these cities are now standard, balancing affordability with lifestyle.” For investors and first-time buyers, tier 2 and 3 cities present wellness benefits alongside strong potential for capital appreciation.
Gen Z and millennials drive integrated living
Younger buyers are shaping demand for homes that seamlessly blend work, leisure, and wellness.
Siingh emphasises, “Gen Z and millennials view mental health and work-life integration as non-negotiable foundations.” Features like co-working spaces, wellness nooks, circadian lighting, and health-monitoring systems cater to this expectation.
Tharwani adds, “Spaces must transition effortlessly from office to wellness sanctuary within minutes.”
Hybrid homes: Future-proof investment
Century Real Estate notes that traditional 900-1,000 sq ft 2BHKs are being replaced by spacious 1,200-1,800 sq ft 2-3 BHK homes.
“A home must double as a boardroom, classroom, gym, and sanctuary,” says a Century spokesperson.
These hybrid layouts not only meet evolving lifestyle needs but also retain value longer, accommodating changes from growing families to aging parents.
