Gera Developments creates yet another innovative category in residential spaces

Launches Staycation Homes at Gera’s World of Joy to suit life in the new normal

Pune, November 02, 2020: Gera Developments, pioneers of the real estate business and the award-winning creators of premium residential and commercial projects in Pune, Goa, and Bengaluru, credited with many firsts, has created yet another innovative category in residential spaces with the launch of Staycation Homes at Gera’s World of Joy, Upper Kharadi* to suit lifestyles in the new normal.

The company’s philosophy is Let’s Outdo and yet again, they have created a breakthrough in innovation with the launch of Staycation Homes on the backdrop of the hugely successful ChildCentric® Homes thereby creating a paradigm shift in real estate for both, the developer as well as the homebuyer. The company is known to establish new categories of living spaces designed keeping customer desires and lifestyle in mind. Gera’s have set new benchmarks not only in understanding the pulse of the customer and quickly responding to it, but also setting new standards of service orientation in the realty sector. Staycation as a concept is of appeal to consumers looking forward to having a quick vacation within their city. That’s where Gera’s Staycation Homes as a concept resonates as it allows the family to not only enjoy endless staycations but also regale in the host of amenities the project offers.

Mr. Rohit Gera, Managing Director, Gera Developments said, “Recognizing the lifestyle shift brought about by the pandemic this year, we conceptualised Staycation Homes which will appeal to our customers and also suit their buying appetite. The new era demands new thinking and innovative ideas. Real estate as an asset class has matured. Market participants need to realize this, think ahead of the curve and be game changers. We have always catered to our customers’ tastes and buying preferences.”

Mr. Gera further added that “Staycation Homes stem from our unwavering focus on innovating real estate and home building to meet shifting lifestyle dynamics while upholding the premium living experience. This approach previously led us to create ChildCentric® Homes focused on ensuring the safety, learning and development of children. We always assess the market situation, customer sentiment and feedback before launching our projects. This time too, we have keenly observed the current Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on consumers, their lifestyle, their need for a break, albeit in a safe environment and have responded with the unique offering of Staycation Homes.”

Staycation Homes housed at Gera’s World of Joy are right-sized studio apartments (carpet area 267 sq ft.) designed to suit the ‘new normal’ lifestyle and enjoy the world-class amenities offered by Gera’s World of Joy, the Second ChildCentric® Homes Project in Pune. This premium residential project by Gera Developments has received an overwhelming response since its launch in November 2019 with Phase 1 almost completely sold out. Gera Developments is offering these unique homes starting at an all-inclusive price of Rs 32.9 lakhs at an attractive scheme under which the customer needs to pay only Rs 2.9 lakhs and government taxes at the time of booking and complete the payment on possession.

Along with superior ergonomic designing, Staycation Homes come with a host of world-class amenities for fitness, recreation and convenience, such as clubhouse, indoor climate controlled half Olympic size swimming pool, badminton courts, squash courts, gymnastics hall as well as the dance studio, art studio and gaming rooms, gymnasium, yoga and meditation area, music room, creche, kids’ play area, cycling track etc. The outdoor areas house the tennis courts and other outdoor facilities. The homes are equipped with DEFT’s smart home devices with Google integrated voice-controlled home automation and comprise other stand-out leisure options like a rock-climbing wall, skating rink, and a mini theatre. Thus, they are fully equipped to blend the comfort of a home with the recreative bliss of a vacation. The location of Staycation Homes at Upper Kharadi* is spacious and peaceful yet in close proximity of schools and colleges, hospitals and retail stores and markets, and easily reachable from the railway station as well as the airport.

* Site Address: Gera’s World of Joy, Gat No.1343B(Part), Wagholi- Pune.
