What Makes Mulund West the Preferred Address for Luxury Living
Mulund West has a significantly higher concentration of luxury residential development than Mulund East, and the gap has also widened over the past decade. If you are looking for a high rise gated community with a full suite of amenities, Mulund West offers meaningfully greater options. The new projects in Mulund which have come up on this side bring clubhouses, swimming pools, landscaped open spaces and fitness facilities that are built into the development.
Mulund West also has lower residential density than East. The presence of Sanjay Gandhi National Park along its boundary acts as a natural constraint on how much can be built, and that is an advantage for the people who live here. Fewer buildings means more breathing room, better air quality and the kind of open environment that is increasingly difficult to find. It is precisely this combination of liveability and ambition that brought Piramal Realty to Mulund West with Piramal Revanta.
