Nature-Integrated, Custom-Crafted Homes Transform North Bengaluru

Bengaluru, Dec 17: Once a quiet stretch beyond the city’s bustle, North Bengaluru is now at the heart of its transformation. With airport-led infrastructure, improved connectivity, and large-scale development driving growth, the region has emerged as one of Bengaluru’s most desirable residential and investment destinations.

At the forefront of this transformation is Total Environment, where a design-first approach and custom-crafted homes come together in communities that embody the brand’s signature integration of architecture with nature. The brand’s portfolio in this region spans a wide spectrum of offerings—handcrafted villas and apartments, as well as plotted developments—catering to homebuyers seeking individuality, a sense of calm, and inspired living. From After the Rain in Yelahanka and In That Quiet Earth off Hennur Road, to Down by the Water in Jakkur, Over the Rainbow near Nandi Hills, and Tangled Up in Green along Doddaballapura Main Road, each project reflects a people-centered design philosophy.

In Yelahanka, After the Rain is a 48-acre community of earth-sheltered villas. Each villa comes with a living green roof that restores nature and regulates indoor temperature. Tree-lined streets and quiet paths shape a calm landscape, while a clubhouse with an open-to-sky pool, gym, steam and sauna rooms, and children’s play areas completes the community.

Off Hennur Road, In That Quiet Earth is a 37-acre community featuring both apartment homes and villa homes with green roofs. Designed with private terrace gardens and large glass panels, the homes draw nature indoors. With over 30 acres developed for low-density living, the community includes a treetop walkway, landscaped streets, and a 50,000 sq. ft. clubhouse with curated amenities.

Near Nandi Hills, Over the Rainbow is an 8.8-acre enclave of earth-sheltered villas designed for natural light, ventilation, and panoramic views. Set along the existing hilly terrain in a stepped arrangement, the homes maintain the natural contours of the land and blend seamlessly into the landscape. Each villa opens out to gardens on both sides, with tree-lined driveways following the slope of the site to shape a calm, nature-centered living experience.

At Jakkur, Down by the Water is a 17.5-acre community set along the lake, offering calm, nature-centered living. The homes come with private terrace gardens that bring the outdoors into everyday life, supported by over 80% green cover, tree-lined paths, and thoughtfully landscaped streets that create a cooler, fresher microclimate. A lakeside walkway, central greens, and a clubhouse designed with an accessible green roof and curated amenities shape a setting where nature and modern architecture come together with ease.

Along Doddaballapura Main Road, Tangled Up in Green spans 110 acres planned around intimate clusters, cobblestone streets, and preserved native trees. A long green boulevard with retention ponds and a curated Tree Museum forms the heart of the community, while walking and cycling paths weave through the preserved eucalyptus grove.

“North Bengaluru represents the next phase of Bengaluru’s real estate evolution—where superior infrastructure, connectivity, and thoughtful planning converge to create long-term value,” said Kamal Sagar, Founder and Principal Architect, Total Environment. “These communities are in carefully chosen land parcels that celebrate nature while enjoying the benefits of a strategic location and a well-developed social infrastructure.”

With Kempegowda International Airport, Satellite Town Ring Road, and Devanahalli Business Park driving expansion, North Bengaluru is fast becoming a strategic hub for homebuyers and investors. Large land parcels and low-density layouts have enabled developers like Total Environment to create expansive, thoughtfully designed communities that prioritize well-being and quality of life. As discerning buyers seek space, privacy, and balance, North Bengaluru’s well-planned neighborhoods are setting the benchmark for the city’s future.
