Kelambakkam
Why is Location Important in Real Estate?
Kelambakkam

Kelambakkam must have popped up a lot of times if you had been following Chennai's real estate news. The situation developed into its present state because people started coming to the area. The former quiet junction town developed into a popular residential and investment area, which people now discuss throughout the busy Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR) area. The present state of Kelambakkam shows its development as a location that connects people with its future potential.

Where Exactly is Kelambakkam?

Located at the crossing of OMR (Rajiv Gandhi Salai) and East Coast Road (ECR), Kelambakkam has an ideal geographic position. This gives it a competitive advantage because it can effortlessly access both the IT corridor and the beautiful coastline. The GST Road is quite easily accessible by the Kelambakkam-Vandaloor Road. Additionally, one can get to the beaches of ECR within 10 minutes via the Kelambakkam - Kovalam Road.

Kelambakkam is the central point, whether you are working in Sholinganallur or Siruseri SIPCOT, or going to a resort on ECR, making commuting from Kelambakkam less difficult.

History of Kelambakkam

Did you know that Kelambakkam was originally developed back in the 11th century? While this fact may seem somewhat out of place for you, it does, in some ways, tie to the background of Kelambakkam itself as being a small, agricultural community that eventually changed to a full-size city located between two major centres of Indian heritage, Kanchipuram and Mahabalipuram, since development has occurred over a period of hundreds of years. The community operated independently as one unit with its own governing bodies and ethnic/cultural traditions, and at that time consisted of only 50-60 homes that were surrounded by fields of crops, trees, bushes, and good farm land.

The present-day appearance of Kelambakkam shows how the area has changed dramatically. The area, which used to be a peaceful rural village, now serves as a fast-expanding center that contains new housing developments and advancing infrastructure while maintaining its historical heritage.

Public Transport

The MTC bus service provides frequent service to Kelambakkam, which enables residents to reach important destinations in Chennai, including T. Nagar, CMBT, Broadway, Central Railway Station, and Tambaram. The upcoming Thaiyur bus depot construction project will create a new public transportation facility, which will enhance local transportation services in that region.

The Kalaignar Mofussil Bus Terminus development process succeeded in improving transportation links because it connects to the Vandalur-Kelambakkam Road, which is 20 minutes away from its location. The Asian bus terminal system operates as a large transportation hub that enables travelers to reach southern destinations from the city.

The Kelambakkam bypass road construction project was completed to solve traffic problems because it created better road conditions, which enabled faster development throughout the area. The Chennai Metro Phase 2 project will connect Madhavaram to Siruseri IT Park, and this development will create better access to public transportation, which will improve daily travel for people who use it.

From Quiet Town to Real Estate Hotspot

Until a few years ago, Kelambakkam wasn’t much more than a stop along the bus route and home to several local markets; all that has changed since. The Sholinganallur area in Chennai has seen three-quarter miles of growth south into Kelaambakkam, as many developers are building new affordable housing developments within five kilometers of I.T. hubs, and many rental rates have become rapidly increasing within the overall metropolitan area of Chennai.

Now that developers are launching new residential projects, including low to mid-rise apartment complexes, villas, as well as larger planned communities, there is no shortage of options available to those looking to move into or continue living in Kelambakkam.

Additionally, Kelambakkam is continuing through a transition into a much larger and more prosperous urban center, with increased support from all levels of government, private developers, and investors, and offers much more space than most of Chennai’s densely populated urban areas while still providing ample green space and tranquility.

Why Homebuyers Are Choosing Kelambakkam

So, what’s driving people to invest here?

  • Affordable real estate options compared to Greater Chennai

  • Access to Information Technology hubs

  • Ability for strong future appreciation

  • Land, apartment, and villa options available for sale

    For new purchasers, they will have the chance to purchase property in an emerging marketplace while keeping within their financial means.
