Worst Apartment Design

Q: One of the worst designs of the apartment noted till now.

I visited Platinum Heritage over one of the weekends as I was really interested to invest in their project Tower 1 Building.

To my surprise I noted some serious design flaws in the flats. Noted below are some of them out of many

There is no provision you can install ACs in the flat no matter whatsoever because of balcony designs. Strangely I was pampered by their sales team that our flats are AC ready!!! Imagine staying in a luxurious flat, but not possible to install an AC due to lack of any open area to place the outdoor AC unit. This definitely brings down their property valuation.

Secondly I noted that their bathroom fittings are placed at some of the most pathetic positions. Towel hanger is just below the Shower !! Imagine your towel also takes a bathe along with you!!!

Geyser electric socket is 1 meter away from the place where the geyser is fitted !! No geyser comes with a 1 Meter long wire.

They have forgotten to keep water drain outlet pipe for washing machine in the dry area !!! Hence Washing machines cannot be operated in the flats of Platinum Heritage. Imagine a Mumbai apartment with no provision to operate even a washing machine.

Sales team tried to impress me that Kitchen is going to be fully furnished with Modular fittings including state of the art Kitchen Chimney. However during my visit, I overheard a group of existing buyers busy discussing that builder is not fulfilling the commitments such as Kitchen Chimney, Shower Cubicles, Vanity boxes in bathroom.

Moreover the sales team says that all flats are sold. Sales team is just exaggerating the fact. The real picture I got to know from some of existing owners is not even 40% flats sold and builder (Soham Group) is struggling with financial problems due to its strained partnership with its business partner (JVM Spaces).

Good that I did not purchase the flat. Save from a big nightmare!!!
