Casagrand Estoria

Casagrand Estoria is located on Kelambakkam-Vandalur Road, Kelambakkam, on the southern edge of Chennai. That road links the Kelambakkam side with Vandalur, so it is the route most of your daily trips will start on. The developer has not published distances to offices, schools, hospitals or stations, so we do not quote any here.

A named arterial road helps on a site visit. You can drive straight to the gate rather than hunting for a lane inside a locality. It also means through traffic outside your entrance, so visit once in the morning rush and once after dark to see how the junction behaves.

Before you book, time the trips you will actually make. Drive from the site to your workplace at your usual hour, then find the nearest school your children could attend and the closest hospital with an emergency ward. Note where groceries and pharmacies are. If the commute or the school run is longer than you can live with, a lower price will not make up for it over the years.

Ask the sales team how residents will get in and out of five towers on one road entrance, and where visitor cars will wait.

Casagrand Estoria prices are set by two configurations. The 2 BHK comes in between about 1,238 and 1,312 sq ft at Rs. 78 Lakhs to Rs. 82 Lakhs. The 3 BHK comes in between about 1,539 and 1,543 sq ft and starts at Rs. 95 Lakhs. The published sizes do not say whether they are carpet or saleable area, so ask for both.

Casagrand quotes about Rs. 5,149 per sq ft for both types. Divide the listed prices by the listed sizes and you get roughly Rs. 6,300 for the smallest 2 BHK and about Rs. 6,200 for the 3 BHK. That gap is worth understanding before you compare this project with others on the same road.

Because the homes are under construction, GST is charged on the construction portion. Stamp duty and registration are payable on top in every case. Ask for a cost sheet that lists:

• The base rate and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing charges
• Car parking and the number of bays
• Club membership and the maintenance deposit
• GST as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration on the full value

Casagrand Estoria RERA registration number is TN/35/Building/0023/2025. Look it up on the TNRERA website before you pay a booking amount. Check that the promoter is Casagrand, that 331 units are registered, and note the completion date the developer has declared, since no possession date is published anywhere else.

With the towers still being built, there is no completion or occupancy certificate yet. At this stage, ask for:

• The RERA registration certificate
• The approved building plan for your tower
• Title documents and an encumbrance certificate for the land
• A draft agreement for sale with the handover date and a delay penalty
• The payment schedule tied to construction stages

Pay each instalment only when the stage it is linked to is visible on site. If a bank is funding your purchase, its legal team will review the same papers, which is a useful second check.

At handover, collect the occupancy certificate for your tower and register the sale deed in your name. Then move the property tax and the electricity connection into your name as well.

Life at Casagrand Estoria centres on five towers placed around a large green core. The developer describes 3.6 acres of the 6-acre site as landscaped open space, which is a big share for a project of 331 homes. Any images you see are renders as planned by the developer, so ask which parts are built today.

An early start could be a walk on the jogging and walking track, a few minutes on the reflexology pathway and some quiet on the meditation deck. The pool deck covers 5,700 sq ft and adds a therapy pool plus a shallow kids' pool, and loungers along the edge. Indoors you get a gym and a home theatre, plus a convenience store for small daily shopping.

If you work from home, the collaborative work space and the learning centre give you somewhere to go besides the dining table. A guest room inside the towers helps when relatives stay over. Weekends can move between the wellness lawn, the therapeutic garden and the hobby corner. Celebrations can use the party lawn, or the multipurpose hall, which has a dining area. Up on the terrace, the plan adds a rooftop lounge, a barbecue counter and an infinity walkway.

Ask which facilities open with the first tower and which wait for the last.
