Serene Communities, a leading senior living brand, has partnered with Gardencity Realty to develop a premium senior living community in Budigere, one of Bengaluru’s fastest-growing residential micro-markets. The project will span approximately 300,000 sq ft, with a Gross Development Value of about Rs 3 billion, and will add roughly 250 senior-friendly residences to the city’s growing retirement housing segment.

The launch forms part of Serene Communities’ national expansion strategy. The company has 11 new projects under development with a planned investment of Rs 25 billion that will add 3,000 units to its current base of 1,700 operational units. In Bengaluru alone, the company intends to invest nearly Rs 5 billion over the next three to five years on new senior living developments.

Located adjacent to The Virtuoso, a well-established senior living community, the Budigere project will offer 2BHK and 3BHK homes priced from Rs 8 million. Approvals are expected within six months, after which sales and construction will begin. The community will be designed for positive ageing with amenities including a clubhouse, recreational and dining facilities, fitness and physiotherapy spaces, therapy gardens, spa, swimming pool and a 24×7 health and wellness centre. Outdoor areas will feature walking and cycling tracks, landscaped gardens and curated activity zones.

“Budigere has emerged as one of Bengaluru’s most compelling senior living destinations, backed by good infrastructure and a balanced social ecosystem. Our partnership with Gardencity Realty builds on shared values and a common vision of creating high-quality communities for today’s active seniors,” said Rajagopal G., Co-Founder, Director & Group CEO, Serene Communities by Columbia Pacific.

Kuttu Muralikrishnan, Managing Director, Gardencity Realty, said the partnership follows the success of an earlier collaboration in Chennai and combines complementary strengths in development and senior living. Ashish Bhasin, Chief Executive Officer, Gardencity Realty, added that the company is exploring further joint projects across cities where it has substantial land banks.

The partnership reflects Serene Communities’ long-term commitment to shaping senior living in India through purpose-built residences that focus on independence, connection and holistic wellbeing.
