Buying a villa as an IT professional is different from buying one as a retiree or a business owner. Your week has a fixed pattern: a commute you repeat, video calls you need quiet for, and children whose school run you also have to fit around. This guide is for villas for IT professionals in Bangalore who are weighing NVT Whispering Hues in Gunjur, and it is written as a planning checklist, not a sales pitch. Specific campus guides are linked from villas near IT parks on Sarjapur Road.
Villas for IT professionals in Bangalore: start with your commute
Write down your employer's campus, your real start time and your realistic number of office days, then test the drive. From the project pin, Google Maps (Saturday evening, October 2026) showed these times; weekday peaks vary.
| Employer location | Drive time | Distance |
|---|---|---|
| Wipro SEZ, Kodathi | about 23 min | 8.3 km |
| RGA Tech Park, Carmelaram | about 27 min | 9.4 km |
| Cessna Business Park | about 38 min | 10.7 km |
| Embassy TechVillage, Ecospace, Global Tech Park | about 42 min | 11.8 to 12.5 km |
| ITPB, Whitefield | about 59 min | 12.8 km |
| Infosys, Electronic City Phase 1 | about 1 hr 15 min | 21.7 km |
A rule that works: if the drive is under 30 minutes, daily office days are comfortable; at 40 to 45 minutes you want hybrid or flexible hours; beyond an hour, treat Gunjur as a home for remote-first roles. The individual guides explain each campus: Wipro SEZ, RGA, Bellandur campuses, ITPL and Electronic City.
Plan the work-from-home room
Both villas have a media room and a first-floor family lounge in the plans, and four bedrooms each with a walk-in wardrobe. Bluebell's media room measures 12′ × 13′ 11″ and Carnation's 12′ × 13′ 5″ (floor plans). Either can be a closed-door office; the family lounge (Bluebell 12′ 6″ × 15′ 11″, Carnation 15′ 3″ × 13′ 5″ on the first floor) can become a shared study.
A few practical thoughts. Put the work room away from the double-height living area, because sound travels in a skylit void. Treat the terrace-floor bedroom as a second office if both partners work from home. Plan power backup and broadband before you move in: a generator charge of ₹3,00,000 is on the price sheet, but ask what it covers. A proposed clubhouse coworking area is planned, not built; do not count on it until it exists.
Think about the day, not just the drive
IT households often run two schedules. A parent starting at 9 am and a child starting at 8 does not work if the school is 40 minutes away. Per Google Maps (October 2026), Greenwood High's Sarjapur campus is about 2 minutes from the site, TISB about 3 and Inventure Academy about 6. Read more in family-friendly villas in Sarjapur Road and the amenities guide. A school run that fits inside your commute is worth more than a cheaper commute with a long school leg.
Money: what to include
Be careful. The tentative basic price is ₹5.96 Cr to ₹7.05 Cr (price sheet, 25 September 2026). On top come BESCOM, water and connection charges at ₹250 per sq ft of built-up area, club membership of ₹10,00,000, advance maintenance at ₹55 per sq ft, a corpus deposit of ₹55 per sq ft, legal charges of ₹70,000, plus stamp duty, registration and GST. The price guide walks through the arithmetic.
We make no claim about what salary supports this purchase; that depends on loans, savings and obligations. Speak to a lender before the EOI amount of ₹5,00,000, and note that a site visit does not reserve a villa.
What to check before you commit
- Commute test: do the drive at your own hours on two weekdays.
- RERA and possession: the registration number and possession date are not yet published; verify at rera.karnataka.gov.in when issued.
- Employer policy: confirm your hybrid arrangement in writing if it matters to the decision.
- Backup plan: if you change jobs, will the new location still work? Many readers hedge by choosing a belt with several campuses nearby.

A sample week for an IT household
Imagine a hybrid week: office on Tuesday and Thursday, home otherwise. On office days, leave Gunjur after the school drop, which is a few minutes, and use a shuttle or share a cab. On home days, one partner uses the media room, the other the first-floor lounge, and the double-height living area stays free for the family. The proposed clubhouse and walkways give an evening break without a drive. This is a pattern, not a promise, but it shows how the plans can be used.
