Master Plan

The White Lotus Kandavara master plan provides for 90 independent villas over an extent of about 30 acres of land in the village belt of Kandavara in Chikkaballapur. Density works out to approximately three villas per acre – the lowest in any new villa launch across North Bangalore. The plan’s focus is on three aspects: tangible land footprints (4,000 to 6,000 sft per villa), generous setbacks on all fronts, and a continuous green spine that drives the community outwards towards Kandavara Lake.

✦ Planning Philosophy: Low Density, Lake-First

Most villa communities in the larger Bengaluru region operate at 8-12 villas per acre. That is essentially shared walls in disguise - row villas with marginal setbacks. The logic here is the antithesis of the master plan of a good low density villa community. Land was bought en masse so that you get just the right density instead of homes all being crammed together. Each villa has its own plot with 4 sided setbacks. No shared walls. No shared parking garages. No lines in the basement.

The other organising principle is the lake. Kandavara Lake is located around one kilometre to the west of the parcel and forms the natural anchor for the whole community. The layout brings villas, the clubhouse, and the green spine to that edge so the lake is the major visual axis of the community. The Nandi Hills range frames the southern horizon - a second long-distance image that is captured by the orientation.

The villas are arranged along internal carriageways with the clubhouse and leisure area in the middle of the property. The continuous green belt continues towards the lake border, bringing a single legible spine to the neighbourhood rather than scattered amenity areas.

✦ Site Plan Breakdown

The 30 acre villa project layout Chikkaballapur appears to be one integrated community and not a phased development. This is an indicative split of parcels – actual size and zoning will be locked in at formal launch.

✦ Villa Zones Within the Master Plan

White Lotus Kandavara villa community layout can be distinguished into three planning zones according to the property size and orientation. All three are part of the very same masterplan and same architectural language - the only thing that changes is plot footprint and view axis.

The figures for configurations are just illustrative and the final unit mix and orientation premiums (corner plots, lake-view axis, east-facing) will be fixed at launch. The project does not intentionally include a compact-villa SKU, so you can be sure that plots are of true villa scale.

✦ Open Space & Landscape Plan

White Lotus Kandavara open space layout allocates a large chunk of the 30 acres plot for the landscaping, amenity and greenery. The idea for this kind of planning is to maintain the built footprint linear and facing the lake, with the central spine and the lake shore promenade bearing the bulk of the outdoor experience of the community.

✦ Green Belt & Landscape Zones

• Continuous green spine running through the central parcel toward the lake-facing edge.

• Lake-edge promenade and viewing decks (subject to setback approvals).

• Themed landscape pockets — sculpture garden, sensory garden, dry garden.

• Avenue planting along internal carriageways for shaded walking and cycling.

• Mature tree preservation across the parcel where existing canopy permits.

• Native-species planting palette aligned with the IGBC framework.

✦ Amenity Zones Within the Open Space

• Stand-alone clubhouse with banquet hall, gym, yoga pavilion, indoor games.

• Outdoor swimming pool with deck and kids' splash pool.

• Sports courts — tennis, pickleball, multi-purpose, cricket net.

• Jogging and cycling track encircling the community.

• Children's play and toddler zone, tree-house installation, pet park.

• Amphitheatre for community performances and outdoor gatherings.

• Barbecue pavilion and outdoor dining areas.

✦ Why the Plan Works

Three planning calls separate this site plan from the standard gated villa community site plan North Bangalore template.

• Plot scale, not plot count: the project releases 90 plots from a parcel that could comfortably hold 200+. That scarcity is the product.

• Lake as primary view axis: the long edge of every villa cluster captures either the Kandavara Lake axis or the Nandi Hills horizon — orientation premium is baked in, not bolted on.

• Green-spine continuity: the open space green belt villa project Bangalore approach favours one continuous spine over fragmented pocket amenities — better for walkability, better for biodiversity, better for community feel.

• True four-sided setbacks: no shared walls, no shared parking ramps, no shared lifts — each villa stands alone on its plot.

• Service separation: staff entries, deliveries, and refuse collection routed off a separate service spine to keep the resident-facing zone clean.

✦ Sustainability Overlay

White Lotus Kandavara masterplan is developed on the IGBC framework with sustainability infrastructure established at community level and not done per villa alone. Rainwater harvesting is designed to be captured during full-monsoon across the parcel. The STP processes and reuses water on site for landscape irrigation. Every villa has solar hot-water installations. The community waste collected separately from each house is treated by organic waste converter.
