Eastern Suburbs of Mumbai consists of localities such as Bhandup, Ghatkopar, Kanjurmarg, Kurla, Mulund, Nahur, Powai, Vidyavihar and Vikhroli. These suburbs benefited significantly from the Eastern Freeway, which connects South Mumbai to locations in the Eastern Suburbs, stretching all the way to Thane.
Real estate development along the Eastern Freeway increased over the past few years. Due to the reduction in commute time, demand for commercial and residential properties went up, and housing prices in locations such as Chembur, Ghatkopar, Mulund, Bhandup, Kanjurmarg and Vikhroli witnessed an increase. Further, with the completion of the Vikhroli - Jogeshwari Link Road, real estate activity has accelerated in the markets of Powai, Vikhroli, and Kanjurmarg.
East Mumbai is served by the Central Railway Line. Mass rapid transportation projects such as the Mumbai Monorail (partially operational) and the Mumbai Metro Rail projects will further enhance the city's east-west connectivity and improve the real estate profile of these suburbs.
Kurla is favoured because of its close proximity to the Santa Cruz - Chembur Link Road, and the Eastern Freeway. Kurla is linked to both the Central Railway System, as well as the Harbour Line. The region is also preferred for its links to the city's commercial regions, like BKC and Kohinoor City. Kurla is home to one of the city's largest malls as well.
Below are two projects that have gained momentum in the locality, owing to its price factor and residential appeasments.
