Q: Hi, I am looking a land in Alipore. What is difference between the price range of Alipore and New Alipore ? Which one should be better for buying purpose?
It all depends on your budget. Alipore is one of the most well known residential addresses located in South Kolkata. The region is well connected to all parts of the city and at a stone throws distance from all commercial city centers. The prices in Alipore are quite steep and the prices in New Alipore offer a relatively cheaper option for the budget spenders. Both the areas are very good choices and have their own strong points. Depending on your budget you can choose between the two. The price in New Alipore ranges between Rs. 8000 to Rs. 11500 per square feet.
Alipore and new Alipore are part of South Kolkata real estate segment. Considered to be one of the posh and upmarket real estate areas in Kolkata, it may be difficult to get a prime piece of land in Alipore. Most builders and developers have already procured most open spaces and are working on various residential townships and other commercial centers. Building a piece of Land and then constructing on it may escalate the costs. I would not suggest that unless you have some very good civil construction background. For residential apartments the price ranges between Rs 14,000 to Rs 18,000 per square feet in Alipore.
