Assetz The Secret Lake

Assetz The Secret Lake location is at Basavanapura on Dyavarahalli Main Road, off IVC Road in Devanahalli Taluk, North Bangalore, pincode 562157. The layout borders a lake of about 190 acres, which gives the project its name and its open outlook on one side.

The developer's distances place Doddaballapura Main Road at 3.2 km, the Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR) at 9.4 km and NH 44 at 11 km. Kempegowda International Airport is about 20 km away, and Yelahanka New Town about 25 minutes by road. The ring road and the highway are the links that connect the layout to the rest of North Bangalore and to the airport employment belt.

Devanahalli has drawn plotted developments because land is still available at a scale the city no longer offers, and because the airport and the industrial parks around it anchor future demand. The trade-off is that daily conveniences are further away than in a settled suburb. Ask the developer how far the nearest market, school and hospital are, since it has not published those distances.

The lake frontage is worth checking on the ground. Walk the boundary, look at the buffer zone between the plots and the water, and ask which plots have a direct lake view and how they are priced. Our advisors can arrange a site visit.

Assetz The Secret Lake Floor Plans are plot dimensions, because buyers build their own homes here. The developer lists 30x40 ft plots of about 1,200 sq ft, 30x50 ft plots of about 1,500 sq ft and 30x60 ft plots, along with odd-sized plots that fill the corners of the layout. Listings add a 2,400 sq ft band and an odd plot of about 2,001 sq ft. All figures are plot area on the ground, not built-up area.

A 30x40 ft plot takes a compact house of two or three floors under the usual Bangalore rules. A 30x50 ft plot adds a garden or a wider frontage, and a 2,400 sq ft plot gives room for a larger home with more parking. Odd plots are often priced a little lower per sq ft but need a custom design.

Before choosing, ask the developer for the building guidelines that apply inside the layout. These cover setbacks, height limit, permitted floor area, and any rules on elevation or boundary walls the association will enforce. Ask, too, whether the plot has a drain, an easement or a utility line crossing it.

Confirm the dimensions and the plot number on the sanctioned layout, and have the plot demarcated on site before registration. Use the Download Brochure button for the developer's plot chart.

Assetz The Secret Lake Master Plan is a 44-acre layout of 701 plots beside a lake of about 190 acres, according to the developer. It sets aside 20.43 acres as open space and a further 4.80 acres as parks and greens, and the developer says more than 2,000 trees have been planted. One listing counts 689 plots on 45 acres, so confirm the totals on the sanctioned layout.

The roads are concrete, in three widths of 15 m, 12 m and 9 m, with avenue planting along them. Electrical, water and sanitary lines run underground. A sewage treatment plant, rainwater harvesting with recharge pits and an organic waste converter serve the whole layout, and common areas have full generator backup.

Master plan highlights

• Land: 44 acres, 701 plots, beside a lake of about 190 acres
• Open space: 20.43 acres, plus 4.80 acres of parks and greens
• Plot sizes: 30x40 ft, 30x50 ft, 30x60 ft and odd plots
• Concrete roads of 15 m, 12 m and 9 m with avenue planting
• Underground electrical, water and sanitary networks
• Clubhouse of about 19,000 sq ft and a Miyawaki forest of about 19,000 sq ft
• Security cabin with boom barriers and CCTV

When you look at the plan, note which plots face the lake, which face a park and which back onto the boundary road, and where the sewage treatment plant is placed. These decide both the daily experience and the resale premium. Ask for the sanctioned layout with plot numbers, not the marketing plan.

Assetz The Secret Lake Amenities centre on a clubhouse of about 19,000 sq ft and a sports zone, with the lake and a Miyawaki forest of about 19,000 sq ft as the natural setting. The list below is as planned by the developer.

In a plotted layout the clubhouse and courts usually follow the roads and utilities, so ask the developer for a timeline for each item and check that the agreement for sale commits to them. Ask, too, what the monthly maintenance per plot is expected to be once the association takes over.
