Properties in Mount Road

If you want to live at the centre of Chennai rather than on its edges, a home on Mount Road is about as central as it gets. Mount Road Chennai is one of the most searched addresses in the city, and the reason is location more than anything else. We group this stretch with the central zone of the city. The homes here are few, costly and aimed at buyers who value an address close to everything.

Two projects are listed here, both apartments. CasaGrand Monte Carlo, from Casagrand, was completed in July 2019 and has 100 homes in 2 BHK, 3 BHK and 4 BHK layouts, from about Rs. 1.55 Crore. Brigade Icon, from Brigade Group, is under construction with 200 homes on 4 acres, due from 2029. Its homes are 3 BHK and 4 BHK residences with a staff room and a study, from about Rs. 7.8 Crore.

Starting prices therefore range from about Rs. 1.55 Crore to Rs. 7.8 Crore, a very wide gap. Monte Carlo is a ready home for buyers who want to move in now. Brigade Icon is a luxury purchase with a long wait, suited to buyers who can plan several years ahead.

A central address has its own costs. Traffic on and around the main road is heavy for much of the day, and noise can be an issue for flats that face it. Visit at different hours and stand in the actual flat to judge sound and light. Ask which side of the building your home faces, since that shapes both the view and the noise.

On paperwork, check each project's registration on the TNRERA portal. For Monte Carlo, ask for the completion certificate, and look at how the common areas and lifts have been kept since 2019. For Brigade Icon, read the progress updates filed on the portal and compare them with the 2029 date. At this price level, ask for a full cost sheet that includes parking, club charges, deposits and taxes. Ask too for the carpet area of the home, not only the built-up figure.
