FAQs
Unlike conventional group housing projects that operate on a 2.75 to 3.5 FAR, Godrej Golf Links is strictly governed by a total FAR of 1.05. This severe density limitation is dictated by its Recreational Entertainment Park (REP) zoning, fundamentally preventing the developer from overbuilding concrete towers on the plot.
Under the GNIDA land allotment terms for recreational plots, the developer cannot completely privatize the core sports amenities. While residents enjoy priority access and integrated living, the general public must legally be allowed access to the golf course, subject to specific membership fees and developer policies.
Because the project is capped at a strict 20% maximum ground coverage by municipal law, an uncompromised 80% of the massive 100-acre plot must remain entirely open. This vast space strictly accommodates the 20-acre golf course, extensive internal road networks, and landscaped green belts separating the residential clusters.
To make the 1.05 FAR financially viable while building sprawling villas, the master plan clusters high-density apartments into specific peripheral towers like The Suites and Windsor. This architectural strategy saves enough FAR to permit the construction of over 500 low-density villas while maintaining the overall legal limits of the 100-acre plot.
The villas typically range from approximately ₹3.30 Crores for the smaller configurations up to ₹8.5 Crores and beyond for the larger 5 BHK and Presidential units. This premium pricing is a direct reflection of the enforced low density, expansive carpet areas, and the premium associated with living adjacent to a master-planned golf course.
While developers can occasionally apply for revised map approvals if the government introduces new purchasable FAR policies, the foundational REP zoning makes massive densification highly difficult. Buyers making high-value transactions should continually monitor any map revisions filed with UP RERA or approved by GNIDA.
Sector 27 offers exceptional connectivity by being situated right near Pari Chowk and the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. It provides rapid access to commercial hubs in Noida, while serving as a strategic gateway to the Yamuna Expressway and the newly operationalized Noida International Airport.
