Properties in Thalambur

If you work on the OMR corridor but want to pay less than the main-road prices, flats in Thalambur are worth a look. The locality lies inland from Navalur, set back from the corridor towards the Chengalpattu side. It was farmland until about a decade ago, and it filled in as OMR became more costly. You get the same corridor jobs and a lower price, in return for a slightly longer trip to the main road.

All the projects on this page are apartment blocks that have already been handed over. The 2 BHK layout leads by a wide margin here, unlike most of OMR. Prices run from about Rs. 21.62 Lakhs at CasaGrand Smart Town to about Rs. 71 Lakhs at Casagrand Luxeria, which offers 3 and 4 BHK homes. Adroit Prosper starts from about Rs. 47.9 Lakhs with 2 BHK flats. CasaGrand Sereno and Casagrand Supremus fall in between, from about Rs. 53.67 Lakhs and Rs. 58 Lakhs. Most projects are mid-sized rather than large townships.

Getting around means first reaching OMR, then heading north towards the office clusters. The inner roads from Thalambur to the corridor matter more than the distance on a map. Drive your route at peak hour, and check the approach road to your chosen project during the monsoon as well.

Weigh the trade-offs. Being off the main road means quieter streets but a longer daily trip, and fewer shops and services close by. Since all homes here are ready, you can inspect the actual flat, so check the finish, seepage and water pressure. Confirm each project's registration on the TNRERA portal and ask for the occupancy certificate. Find out whether the owners' association has taken over maintenance and what it charges. Get a full cost sheet, covering registration and parking, before you pay a booking amount.

To compare, visit Navalur on the main corridor, which puts you closer to OMR in exchange for a higher price.
