Pros and cons
Arvind Forest Trails
Pros
- A real forest theme: a walking trail, Miyawaki forest, lily pond and zen garden run through the community
- Low density, with about 16 villas per acre (253 villas on 15.59 acres)
- 57.51% of the land is open area, as filed with RERA
- Honest sizes: the advertised 2,062 sq ft is the RERA carpet area plus balcony, so there is almost no loading
Cons
- The entry price of ₹3.45 Cr works out to about ₹19,400 per sq ft of RERA carpet area on the Premium villa
- Each Premium villa carries only about 694 sq ft of undivided land share, so most of the price is the building, not land
- The land is under a joint development agreement, with the landowner holding a 35% share of the project
- No major IT park lies within 10 km, so most office commutes mean a long drive
Mana Verdant Terraces
Pros
- Unique Architectural Concept: The “Vertical Landscaping” and signature stepped terraces are a significant differentiator, providing massive private balconies (up to 2,700 sq. ft. total unit size) that offer a “bungalow-in-the-sky” feel.
- Strategic Location: It is positioned perfectly for IT professionals, being just minutes away from major tech hubs like RGA Tech Park, Wipro SEZ, and RMZ Ecoworld.
- Low Density & High Privacy: With only four towers spread across about 8 acres, the project offers a low-density environment. The “no common walls” design further enhances resident privacy.
- Generous Unit Sizes: In a market moving toward compact living, the project offers some of the largest 3 BHK floor plans in the Sarjapur corridor, starting from 1,910 sq. ft.
Cons
- Long Completion Timeline: With an official RERA possession date of December 2031, this is a long-term commitment. Investors and buyers must account for nearly six years of construction.
- Premium Pricing: Starting at ₹2.5 Cr+ (with some all-inclusive quotes reaching ₹2.8 Cr – ₹3.9 Cr), it is priced at the higher end for the Doddakannelli/Carmelaram micro-market.
- Developer Track Record Concerns: While earlier projects were praised for innovation, recent feedback from residents at Mana Capitol and Mana Uber Verdant highlights issues with construction finish, maintenance handover delays, and water dependency on tankers.
- Developing Infrastructure: Some civic amenities in the immediate vicinity (connecting roads and street lighting) are still under development by local authorities, which can lead to traffic bottlenecks during peak hours.
