The COVID-19 pandemic has given a new lease of life to the second homes market. Prolonged travel abstinence coupled with a new-found awareness of owning a home within green surroundings has propelled the interest in private, exclusive, and luxurious second homes.

A safe haven away from the city, a short distance from the chaos, plush environments, luxuries fit for royalty, aesthetically distinct architecture, and a credible name has become the primary criteria for HNIs to invest in a second home. Real estate has transformed from a critical diversifier in the HNI investment portfolio into a reliable stable asset, all of which is credited to the pandemic.

Lodha Luxury, the finest luxury brand by India's largest real estate developer, has collaborated with Isprava, the country's leading second home developer, to create a unique, bespoke offering - two exclusively designed villas at The Reserve at Lodha Belmondo that offer the ultimate resort-inspired weekend living experience. Housed within the 100+ acre luxury resort of Lodha Belmondo, fringed by the Pavana River at the foot of the Sahyadri Hills, The Reserve has been designed by one of the world's most acclaimed and awarded architects, MIT and Harvard alumnus Cristopher Benninger.

The villas offer a distinct Isprava experience where sharp modernity and classic elements blend with a tranquil slice of the outdoors to offer the ideal weekend home. With a contrast in design with art deco elements that marry seamlessly into crisp modern design, typical of the unique savoir-faire offered by Isprava, one feels amid an international getaway yet giving a sense of being entirely at home, making it the perfect holiday home to relax, recharge and repeat.

Commenting on the collaboration, Vinti Lodha – Advisor at Lodha Luxury, says, "Lodha luxury is committed to crafting and providing bespoke living experiences. Our collaboration with Isprava is a testament to Lodha Luxury's promise: creating unique masterpieces that represent the highest standards in luxury living through the eclectic combination of masterful craftsmanship at the most desirable locations in the world, offering the most luxurious hospitality. Isprava's design philosophy is in perfect harmony with our brand ethos, and the collaboration ensures that we will continue to deliver unique experiences with the major lifestyle shift and ever-evolving
consumer preferences that our patrons have come to expect from us."

Isprava spokesperson, Nibhrant Shah adds, "We are really excited to partner with Lodha Luxury. We are designing the interiors of two villas at The Reserve in Lodha Belmondo, which are designed to create a synergy between the old and the new. The interiors of the villas are built around creating harmony between the outdoors and indoors. Each villa will have a modern and majestic feel with art deco elements; at Isprava, we endeavor to create unique experiences for our clients. Each of our homes in Goa, Coonoor, and Alibaug are exclusively designed to
build not just a home but an inimitable lifestyle."

Second homes are typically silo properties missing out on the envious lifestyle and experience of exclusive gated neighborhoods. The Reserve at Lodha Belmondo is a unique offering in this category with spacious villas, sky duplexes, country houses, and towers, set in a luxury resort that offers every comfort of a global lifestyle while being surrounded by the Sahyadri Hills and fringed by the Pavana River. The homes command spectacular golf course views and are serviced by the impeccable hospitality of St. Amand club. With a 45-acre golf course designed by golf legend Greg Norman, an extravagant 50,000 sq. ft. clubhouse, exclusive spa, gourmet restaurant, tennis and basketball courts, leafy jogging tracks, and a picturesque 1 km long riverside promenade, the property ensures that for residents no two weekends at The Reserve at Lodha Belmondo are the same.

Located a breezy two-hour drive from Mumbai and a short drive from Pune, The Reserve at Lodha Belmondo offers its discerning consumers both - an ideal weekend home and a resort luxury living experience like no other. Click here to know more.
