A few months ago, I was just another city dweller—suffocated by concrete, craving calm, and stuck in the cycle of rent, traffic, and noise. Like many others in Bangalore, I had dreams of building a home. Not just buying one, but building one, brick by brick, breath by breath.
I wasn’t looking for a ready-made apartment or a crowded community. I wanted freedom. Nature. And space to build not just walls—but memories.
That’s when I discovered Assetz The Secret Lake, tucked away off IVC Road.
I wasn’t even looking in North Bangalore at first. It was a lazy weekend when a friend casually mentioned, “You know, plots are back in trend. There’s this new project near Devanahalli.”
Curiosity got the better of me. A few clicks and a phone call later, I was booked for a site visit.
What I saw instead: a masterfully planned plotted community surrounded by nature, anchored by a tranquil lake, and already buzzing with promise.
No, seriously. The moment I stepped out of the car, it hit me — the quiet, the breeze, and the lack of that dull hum of the city. I wasn’t that far from Bangalore’s core, but it felt like I had entered another world.
The developers, Assetz Property Group, didn’t just dump plots on a map. They’d curated the layout. Wide roads, tree-shaded footpaths, designated green zones, and a lake that looked like it belonged in a coffee-table book.
I remember thinking, This is where I could wake up every day.
Buying an apartment often feels like compromise: wrong view, awkward layout, no garden. But here? I could build my own story.
Want a home with a library, a deck, a koi pond? Done.
Want a single-story house with just light and silence? Done.
Want a duplex with a terrace garden? Go for it.
It wasn’t just land. It was liberation.
I’m not just a dreamer—I’m also practical. I asked the team questions I had bookmarked:
What’s the growth rate in IVC Road?
How close is it to the metro?
Are there tech parks nearby?
What about schools, hospitals, and airport access?
Turns out, IVC Road is a hotspot. The Doddajala Metro Station is coming up nearby. The airport is just a 20-minute drive. And with SEZs, business parks, and new roadways in the pipeline, it felt like buying early in a rising tide.
Add to that: land is low-maintenance, low-risk, and highly appreciating.
Sure, it’s a plotted layout. But you’re not left to fend for yourself. The project includes:
A modern clubhouse with a gym and lounge
Walking paths and fitness zones
Kids' play areas, so families like mine can grow together
A swimming pool and an open-air amphitheater
And yes—there are plans for security, maintenance, and a resident app. So, it’s freedom without the stress.
Assetz isn’t just building roads and naming them after trees. They’re curating a like-minded community of nature lovers, creatives, young families, and professionals who don’t want to be boxed in.
I met a couple during the visit who plan to retire here. Another person I met is an artist setting up her studio. Everyone had their own story—but they shared one common thread: a desire for meaningful living.
It wasn’t just a project. It was a place where lives would breathe and belong.
I picked a 1500 sq. ft. plot—not too big, not too small, perfect for a 3BHK with a small garden and reading nook.
The process was smooth. Transparent paperwork, flexible payment options, and even design consultancy help.
And I walked away not just with land papers, but with excitement. I wasn’t buying real estate. I was laying the foundation of my future.
Ask yourself:
Do you dream of building your own home?
Do you want to invest in Bangalore’s most promising zone?
Are you tired of apartments and long for space and silence?
Do you want a community that cares about trees, not just towers?
If the answer is yes, then yes—you should.
Assetz The Secret Lake gave me more than a plot. It gave me a starting line. For slower mornings. For garden walks. For a home that feels like me.
If you’re still scrolling through property listings, do yourself a favor: book a site visit. Breathe the air. Walk the roads. Watch the water shimmer.
You’ll know, just like I did — this isn’t just a place to live.
It’s a place to belong.
