About the area

Long gone are the days when Thane was considered an area aloof and disconnected from Mumbai. It has now become a popular destination for property investors as it offers good returns and capital appreciation. In a wealth report combined by Knight Frank India Limited, Thane is among the 20 cities in the world towards which people are currently inclined to invest their wealth.

One major reason for such an attraction towards the area is the price factor. People can get bigger houses with all modern amenities in Thane for a lesser cost than in Mumbai. Moreover, superior infrastructure and enhanced overall connectivity add to the area's selling point. The proposed Metro to Thane has also helped up the demand for the place.

About the project

Godrej Alive, by Godrej Property and Nirmal Lifestyle, offers 2 BHK, 3 BHK (3 BHK Luxe and 3 BHK Ultra-Luxe), and 4 BHK apartments in Dharamveer Nagar, Thane. These houses, which will be possession ready by December 2024, offer quality standards and innovation. The well-planned residential project aims to provide ventilated housing accommodative of uncluttered natural space. Some houses also sport sun-decks.

The amenities within Godrej Alive include an amphitheatre, sports grounds (badminton, squash etc.), a mini theatre, a senior citizen club, a gym, an aerobics studio, a terrace clubhouse and a sports juice bar among many other amenities. One may, however, feel that most amenities are inclined towards a more sports-oriented setting.

Transport and connectivity

Godrej Alive is situated in Dharamveer Nagar, Thane. This location seems to be a good choice on the part of the developer since the area lies on the LBS road which connects Mumbai and Thane. This location would give homebuyers easy access to the rest of the city through the Eastern Expressway. Thane and Mulund are the closest railway stations, each at a distance of about 1 km. One will also find various bus stations in the area.

Education and Employment Opportunities

In terms of educational opportunities, one would find many schools in the area- NES International School, Eurokids, Billabong High International School, Saraswati School, St. Mary Convent High School, DAV International School, Serra International School, Singhania School, Sri Sri Ravishankar Vidyamandir etc. While this seems profitable for families, one cannot ignore the fact that the area has a serious lack of opportunities for higher education, especially in terms of colleges.

In terms of employment, however, the area may prove to be ideal, owing to the presence of IT hubs like TCS, ACC Ltd. And MBC IT Park in the vicinity.

Hospitals and Healthcare

The area provides easy and quick access to primary hospitals and health care centres like Platinum Hospital, Dr. Godbole Heart Care Hospital, Bethany Hospital, Currae Multispecialty Hospital, Fortis Hospital etc.

Shopping and entertainment

There are several cinema halls in the proximity- Cinemax Eternity Mall, Adlabs Cinema, Malhaar Talkies etc. The area also has many shopping centres, some of which are Korum Mall, Viviana Mall, and Eternity Mall. Other entertainment centres include markets, restaurants, and cafes which are spread around the area.
