In practice buyers look at four things: generous usable space (large 3 and 4 BHK homes), low density per floor, a well run clubhouse, and finishes and systems that are named and specified in the agreement. Price alone does not make a home luxury.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_big_is_a_luxury_apartment_in_Hyderabad\"><\/span>How big is a luxury apartment in Hyderabad?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Luxury homes in Hyderabad are usually large 3 and 4 BHK apartments. As examples from our projects, The Regent in Kondapur offers 3 BHK residences of 1,497 to 2,191 sq ft, and The Pearl at HITEC City offers 4 BHK sky mansions of 5,300 and 5,400 sq ft.
