Buying Brigade Lakecrest on Old Madras Road: Sizes, Rates and Site Stage

Brigade Lakecrest is a Brigade Group apartment development coming up in Bhattarahalli, east of KR Puram along Old Madras Road. Builders are still at work on the towers, and the target date for completion is March 2030. The guide below goes through Brigade Lakecrest by sizes, current rates, approvals and site stage, then ends with questions to put to the seller.

Is It the Right Fit?

Hardly any Brigade launch offers such a spread of formats. Landlords and first-time buyers will look at the smallest units, and families will look at the bigger ones. Those whose offices are in Whitefield or KR Puram get a reputed builder on a road with long-standing connections.

It will not suit a household that has to relocate soon. Possession is years away, and payments follow construction milestones. A completed home would serve that household better.

Home Types, Counts and Sizes

Total inventory is 604 units. Super built-up space starts near 482 and tops out at 2,179 sq ft, which means carpet space between roughly 329 and 1,418 sq ft. Counted by type, the carpet sizes are:

• Studio: 60 units, each near 333 sq ft
• One bedroom: 42 units, 495 up to 516 sq ft each
• Two bedrooms: 164 units, 828 up to 990 sq ft each
• Two bedrooms plus study: 42 units, 1,001 up to 1,022 sq ft each
• Three bedrooms, three bathrooms: 212 units, 1,054 up to 1,302 sq ft each
• Three bedrooms plus an additional maid's room or home office: 84 units, 1,399 up to 1,420 sq ft each

Decks feature in a good number of units, and certain upper-floor homes face the lake. The tower and orientation you choose will decide the view and how much noise the highway brings in.

The Registered Particulars

The development has these details on record:

• Promoter: Brigade Enterprises Ltd, marketed under the Brigade Group name
• Land: 5.37 acres, PIN code 560049
• Buildings: towers of 21, 21, 21 and 22 floors, all above a pair of basements
• Completion date declared: 31 March 2030

The state RERA authority registered the project under number PRM/KA/RERA/1251/446/PR/240625/007866, in June 2025. BBMP approved the building plan, and construction got going on 1 July 2025.

Reaching Bhattarahalli

The highway passes the site beyond KR Puram, ahead of Budigere Cross. To the west, that road meets KR Puram and the ring road, and to the east it reaches Hoskote. KR Puram also offers a railway halt and a metro stop on the Purple Line. For more on the stretch, see the locality page on Old Madras Road.

Drive times, in minutes, work out as follows:

• Closest of all, taking 3 minutes, is Garden City University
• The lake itself and a Sathya Sai hospital are each 5 minutes away
• 9 minutes gets you to Cambridge Institute of Technology
• A 10-minute drive reaches Orion Uptown Mall, and East Point Hospital needs 13
• NPS Whitefield is 18 minutes off, with Phoenix Marketcity at 20
• The office campus Bagmane Tech Park, in CV Raman Nagar, is 25 minutes

Heavy vehicles use this national highway, and the junction at KR Puram slows down at peak hours. Try the journey to your workplace at the normal time before committing.

Current Price List

Rates begin at Rs. 160 Lakhs for two bedrooms and climb above Rs. 266 Lakhs for the top three-bedroom plan. This table gives the starting figure for each type:

The studio plan opened at Rs. 59 Lakhs, and the one-bedroom plan at Rs. 91 Lakhs. Enquire about availability of these smaller plans and their current rates. Beyond the base rate, expect these charges:

• 5% GST on a home still under construction
• Five per cent stamp duty plus surcharges, and registration at 2%
• Higher-floor and facing premiums, if applicable
• Deposits for parking, clubhouse and corpus, and maintenance paid in advance

What the Grounds Offer

Facilities are placed on a podium without cars, on lawns and in a clubhouse, and tree-lined paths connect the towers. Amenities consist of:

• Two swimming pools, one meant for children
• Pickleball, tennis and badminton courts
• One half-size basketball court and a cricket box
• A skating zone and an outdoor gym
• A community garden and a play area for children
• A pet park

Where Construction Stands

Tower A received its ground floor slab in July 2026, and Tower D followed later that month. Tower B was done in August and Tower C in September. Crews were casting the upper basement and the podium slab as well, with quarterly reports posted on the RERA authority's website.

Because handover is years away, compare each report with the schedule you sign. A delay compensation clause in the agreement protects your money if dates slip.

Questions to Put to the Seller

An early-stage purchase depends on paperwork and the payment plan. Get these points in writing before signing:

• The tower, floor and orientation, plus the exact unit's carpet measure
• A line-by-line cost sheet with GST, deposits, parking and any premium for floor height
• The schedule of payments tied to construction and the delay compensation wording
• Title documents and the approved plan, read by a lawyer independent of the seller
• If buying a small unit to let, the owners' association rules about tenants

Go to the site on a weekday and watch both the towers and the traffic. The builder's other developments are covered under Brigade Group.
