Spatial Planning & Functionality
The residence is thoughtfully planned to accommodate both income-generating rental apartments and a comfortable private residence for the owner.
- The lower two floors are allocated for rental apartment units, each designed as efficient and functional 2BHK layouts suitable for urban family living.
- The upper 1.5 floors serve as the owner’s private residence, offering enhanced privacy, spacious interiors, and elevated views of the surrounding area.
This zoning strategy ensures a clear separation between rental and personal living spaces while maximizing the utility of the compact urban plot.
