This is one of the oldest housing projects in the city and is known for its dense population and excellent development during the last five years. It is highly attractive to genuine buyers because of its safe neighbourhoods and green spaces that are a great option for people interested in raising a family.
The locality is divided into five zones, from I-V, which have residential plots of 5 marlas, 10 marlas and 1 kanal. Zones III and IV are better developed as compared to the other zones and offer possession, although they do not have a gas connection yet. Prices in Zone III and IV are higher than those in Zones I, II and V, primarily because of differences in the scale of development.
