Hill-View Plots Shivalik, New Chandigarh

Hill-View Plots Shivalik New Chandigarh

Ask people in the Tricity why New Chandigarh feels different and many will mention the hills. Mullanpur lies at the foot of the Shivalik range, and on clear days the hills form the backdrop to Eco City Township. For buyers who want a home with a view rather than a view of the next building, this matters.

What gives a plot a hill view

• Orientation: plots whose front or upper floors face north or north-east toward the hills
• Open foreground: parks, green belts or wide roads in front
• Height: upper floors and terraces see over neighbouring houses
• Distance from tall future buildings in mixed-use or commercial zones

Views can change

A plotted township grows over time. Today's open view may be partly blocked when neighbouring plots are built. Look at the layout plan to see what can be built in front of the plot, and the height limits that apply. A view across a designated park or green belt is more durable than a view across empty plots.

Designing for the hills

• Place living rooms and terraces toward the view
• Use a roof terrace or top-floor lounge to lift the view over neighbours
• Balance glazing with shade, as summers in the region are hot
• Keep landscaping low on the view side

Climate in the foothills

Mullanpur shares the Tricity's climate: hot summers, a monsoon season and cool winters. The foothill location can feel slightly fresher in the evenings, but you still need to design for summer heat. Deep overhangs, cross-ventilation and shaded terraces let you enjoy the hill view without overheating the house.

Natural surroundings

Besides the Shivalik foothills, the Mullanpur area is close to the Siswan forest belt, and Chandigarh's Sukhna Lake is a drive away. Read plots near the Shivalik foothills, plots near Sukhna Lake and park-facing plots.
