November 15, 2025: Mulund, once known for its quiet residential character, has rapidly transformed into one of Mumbai’s most sought-after real estate destinations, driven by the evolving expectations of today’s homebuyers. The suburb now attracts a diverse mix of young professionals, nuclear and multi-generational families, and first-time buyers who prioritise lifestyle, functionality, and long-term value over conventional parameters.
According to Mr Chintan Sheth, Chairman and Managing Director of Sheth Realty, buyers in Mulund have shifted their focus from carpet area and standard amenities to homes that complement their daily lives. Young families seek secure, open spaces for children; working professionals prefer flexible layouts that support work-from-home; and first-time buyers emphasise transparency, timely delivery, and the developer’s credibility.
Mulund’s strategic position between the Eastern and Western corridors has amplified its appeal, offering seamless access to Thane, Navi Mumbai, and key commercial hubs such as Bandra Kurla Complex. Major infrastructure upgrades—including Metro Lines 4 and 5, the Eastern Express Highway improvements, and the upcoming Goregaon-Mulund Link Road—have strengthened its standing as a future-ready suburb.
What sets Mulund apart is its relatively generous availability of space, a rarity in Mumbai’s compact urban landscape. While two-bedroom apartments remain in demand, the market is witnessing increased interest in larger three- and four-bedroom homes that can accommodate multi-generational living and offer room for recreation, study, or hybrid work setups. Developers like Sheth Realty are responding with adaptable floor plans and designs that suit changing urban lifestyles.
For real estate developers, Mulund’s growth trajectory highlights the need to prioritise spacious planning, improve connectivity, and deliver holistic living environments enriched with green spaces and wellness-centric amenities. As homebuyers grow more informed and discerning, they increasingly value authenticity, community engagement, and meaningful everyday experiences over superficial luxury.
Mulund’s transformation reflects Mumbai’s shifting housing landscape—one where comfort, flexibility, and convenience define modern urban living and where future developments must align with the aspirations of a new generation of homeowners.
