Mahindra Lifespace Developers Ltd, the real estate and infrastructure development arm of the Mahindra Group, through its wholly owned subsidiary Mahindra Bloomdale Developers, has launched Mahindra Nestalgia, Pune’s first biophila-inspired homes in Pimpri.

Inspired by human beings’ instinctive connection with nature, called biophilia, the elements of the project are influenced by natural materials, textures, patterns and shapes that rekindle old memories while building a sustainable future. Through these associations, homes at Mahindra Nestalgia will nurture an active and healthy lifestyle.

Amenities reigniting childhood memories include hopscotch, a sundial, a barefoot park, a hammock garden, a Burma bridge, a dew garden, a fur park and more.

Homes at Mahindra Nestalgia are cocooned in lush green expanses with a Koi Pond, an 8-shaped Foot Chi, Gupshup Adda, Rain Benches and Elder’s Parklet for residents to enjoy nature within the safe perimeter of the project.

Arvind Subramanian, Managing Director and CEO, Mahindra Lifespace, said, “As we continue to strengthen our presence in Pune, one of our key focus markets, we are excited to introduce the city’s first biophilia-inspired residential project. Mahindra Nestalgia is our tenth project in Pune.” Mahindra Nestalgia has been pre-certified with a ‘Gold’ rating by the IGBC.
