Lahore Smart City is an upcoming mega real estate project set for development in the expanding urban landscape of Punjab’s provincial capital. Slated to be a smart and innovative initiative, the project will occupy a prime location within the metropolis – offering a comprehensive range of residential plots (along with the best community-living facilities to match!).
Project Introduction
With its various exciting features, Lahore Smart City will be the fifth developmental venture of its kind in Asia – and the second in Pakistan. Drawing on the construction elements of modern real estate developments, the project will further come as the biggest eco-friendly initiative in the city – ripe for the stake-holding pursuits of both genuine buyers and investors alike.
In basis, Lahore Smart City is a project-resultant of the alliance between Habib Rafiq (Pvt.) Limited and Future Holding Developments (FHD). The project’s master plan is currently under draft by a Singapore-based consultancy organisation.
The salient features of this grand residential initiative include the offerings of a community lifestyle, modern infrastructure and architecture, high-quality urban amenities, and rigid international standards’ compliance in all project design and development elements.
Lahore Smart City Location
The Lahore Smart City location falls on the Lahore Bypass near Kala Shah Kaku, a point easily accessible not only from the main GT Road but also from the Lahore-Islamabad Motorway (M-2) and the Lahore-Sialkot Motorway (M-11).
Furthermore, the project’s positioning becomes even more significant due to its accessibility from the Lahore Ring Road – making it approachable from all major parts of the city.
Lahore Smart City Master Plan
When initiating the Lahore Smart City master plan framework, the project developers envisioned the creation of a high-level urbanised initiative; a residential society that would offer affordable yet efficient living spaces along with innovative and consumer-driven facilities.
As per the project plan, the development will comprise two blocks; namely the ‘Executive Block’ and the ‘Overseas Block’. Each of these sections, in turn, will feature residential plots of 5, 10, and 20 marlas.
The Executive Block will offer exclusive property ownership opportunities for genuine buyers and investors residing in the country; while the Overseas Block, as its name implies, will specifically caters to the investment demands of Pakistanis living abroad.
Lahore Smart City Payment Plan
The residential plots in both blocks are available for booking at 10% down payment and 10% confirmation charges submission, while the remaining cost will be payable on a 3.5-year easy instalment plan. According to the project details revealed so far, these payments will not include plot development charges.
Plot Size (Overseas Block) | Price (PKR) |
5 Marla | 1,900,000 |
10 Marla | 3,400,000 |
20 Marla | 5,500,000 |
Plot Size (Executive Block) | Price (PKR) |
5 Marla | 1,800,000 |
10 Marla | 3,300,000 |
20 Marla | 5,400,000 |
On the other hand, if buyers wish to pay 50% down payment, they can save 5% on the full submission amount – and if they choose to pay the lump sum figure, they can save up to 10%.
