Custom-made homes are witnessing a rising demand in Pune’s luxury segment with city realtors offering a la carte experience 

    It's a space that belongs exclusively to you. Your home is an expression of your personality. It's one such place where you would always like to leave indelible mark. Buying a home as per builder's plan is now a passé as customisation has now entered the arena of housing as well. And when you are buying a home is luxury sector, you can always design it the way you want. Thanks to globalisation and an ever-increasing standard of living, Indians are no longer alien to the concept of custom homes. We all want to design our dream house but wouldn't it be amazing if we get to design its layout too? That is exactly what tailor-made apartments offer. You can not only plan your interiors, but also the layout of your house and rooms to every minute detail you require in your house.
    Custom-made homes are witnessing a rising demand in Pune's luxury sector with city realtors offering a la carte experience. Many projects with a la carte options have received an overwhelming response, agree Pune realtors in unison. Most of the developers in luxury sector have taken it forward. These a la carte options offer a plethora of choice to customers, right from floor plan styling, flooring types, brick work, plaster, electrification and paint shades to plumbing arrangements, bathroom fittings, finishing in the kitchen, styling of doors and windows and security features.
    Today's luxury customer is savvy and wants to make the optimum usage of investment, asserts Atul Chordia, chairman and CEO, Panchshil Realty. "Apartments are no more four walls. They are spaces shared by a family. Home is a place that breathes life and energy. The consumer today knows the value of this space. They know exactly what they want, and they want it to be done by someone else! This is where a brand - person or not - plays an important role. A branded home designed and styled professionally speaks volumes about the informed choices made by a client."
    Custom-made home is a wide concept, adds Rajesh Sankla of Siddhivinayak Group. "I don't think the idea of customisation could be confined to luxury sector alone. There is more to it. Those who cannot afford to buy their bungalows or luxurious villas customise flats fitting into their budgets. People aspire to stay in a bungalow. However, this is not always possible for many, owing to scarcity of land as well as the cost that goes into an independent house. Custom-made homes give them suitable options. Here, they can have the advantages of a residential project as well as the choice of having their own place of dwelling designed to their particular taste and requirement."
    However, when it comes to luxury sector, the concept of customisation is gaining ground, says Supriya Date, an interior decorator. "High-end homebuyers like to deign their homes as per their own choices. When they have been provided a plethora of options, they can choose as per their preferences and priorities as well. Customisation entered realty sector when the industry understood that every customer's priorities and preferences are different. In luxury sector, designed dwellings as per individuals' choices are more popular in Pune. This way, investors also get value for money."
    After all, customisation is something that offers you a complete living experience you had ever dreamt of!
