Kakkanad, in perfect tune with the future

Once an unassuming suburb of Kochi, Kakkanad is now its fastest developing residential and commercial destination, and is even slated to be Kochi’s future Central Business District.

This picturesque hilly region is becoming the preferred work and residential address of several corporate houses including MNCs, who find that this leafy valley brings them closer to their lifestyle aspirations..

The fortunes of Kakkanad began to change with the shifting of the Civil Station, headquarters of the city administration, from Ernakulam to Kakkanad, and the setting up of the Special Economic Processing Zone (SEPZ) in the area. A recent decision to shift all central government offices to Kakkanad from Ernakulam will further enhance the value of this scenic neighbourhood.

The completion of the Seaport-Airport Road and the proximity to National Highway 47 have given an impetus to the growth and development of Kakkanad. Availability of quality ground water, more open roads, good connectivity and modern infrastructure have added to its appeal.

Kakkanad is home to reputed educational institutes including those for engineering, medicine and management. There are plans afoot for a Bus Terminal, through which all the buses for Kochi will need to enter. Also on the anvil, are plans for an FM station and the Kakkanad Medical Centre, which will include a 100 bed hospital.

New Town Heights, DLF Kakkanad - a residential estate, has the enchanting scenic beauty of a mountain valley, with its gently sloping hills and lush green surroundings. Yet, it has excellent access to the rest of Kochi, being on the Seaport-Airport Road, just 750 mts from the Collectorate and within 200 mts of the Kochi Special Economic Zone (CSEZ), Muthoot Technopolis, the Info Park, the KINFRA Park, the Bio Tech Park and the fast developing Smart City. This much sought after residential estate offers residents not only superb accommodation options but also the lifestyle privileges of having an excellent clubhouse, shopping and even office facilities within its precincts.
