Project Overview & Location
- Developer: Lodha Group (formerly Macrotech Developers).
- Launch & Possession: Introduced in 2020, with possession beginning June 2022.
- MahaRERA Registration Numbers:
- Phase 1 (Lodha Villa Royale) – P51700026503
- Phase 2 (Lodha Villa Royale Gold) – P51700054370
- Configuration & Spread:
- Phase 1: 200, 300, 450 & 600 sq.yd plots.
- Phase 2: 250, 350, 450, 500 & 600 sq.yd plots.
- Location: Strategically located on the Thane–Dombivli Link Road (TDLR), directly connecting Thane and Dombivli. Just minutes from the Mumbai–Nashik Highway, which is being upgraded into an 8-lane expressway as part of the MahaSamruddhi Marg project.
Connectivity & Infrastructure
- TDLR ensures smooth access between Thane, Dombivli, and Kalyan.
- The Mumbai–Nashik Highway expansion into an 8-lane expressway will soon cut travel time to Central Thane (Viviana Mall, Majiwada, EEH) to under 15 minutes.
- Eastern Freeway Extension (Ghatkopar–Thane): A 12.95 km elevated corridor, under construction and slated for December 2028 completion, will ensure a signal-free 30–35 minute commute from South Mumbai to Thane.
- Samruddhi Expressway: The final stretch from Igatpuri to Thane was inaugurated in June 2025, giving Thane seamless access to the 701 km Mumbai–Nagpur Expressway.
Investment Value & Rarity
- Early buyers have already achieved 60%–100% appreciation since launch.
- Among the very few plotted villa projects in MMR, this development provides true land + villa ownership, rare in a region dominated by vertical towers.
- Even today, a villa here can be purchased at the price of a premium 4–5 BHK apartment in central Thane—a one-of-a-kind opportunity for families who value independent living.
- The current traffic congestion is a temporary effect of infrastructure work. Once completed, these very projects will unlock significant growth and value appreciation.
- Overlooking this opportunity now could become a decision of regret later, as the rarity of villa living in MMR will only deepen.
- (Author’s Note): Having personally facilitated villa sales here, both in fresh bookings and resale transactions, I can confirm the appreciation trends mentioned above. The buyer profile itself speaks volumes: HNIs, top-level executives from leading corporations, and NRIs form a significant share of homeowners, highlighting the estate’s prestige positioning.
Lifestyle & Villa Design
- European-Themed Architecture: Villas feature a European-inspired design, lending the township a timeless, elegant character.
- Private Entrances & Parking: Every villa has its own front area for private parking and a secure independent entrance.
- Backyard Gardens: Homes come with private backyard gardens, offering families their own green retreat.
- Private Secured Estate: The project is a gated estate with 24×7 round-the-clock security, ensuring safety for both residents and their investment.
- Independent Living + Community Amenities: While each villa offers standalone privacy and openness, residents also enjoy access to community amenities such as the clubhouse, landscaped gardens, and recreation spaces.
Project Status & Lifestyle Experience
- As of today, 10+ families are already residing inside Lodha Villa Royale.
- Amenities are live, and multiple villas are under possession or nearing readiness.
- The township is now evolving into a self-sustained, vibrant community—a strong signal of credibility and delivery.
Future Outlook
- With TDLR, the 8-lane Mumbai–Nashik Expressway, the Samruddhi Expressway, and the Eastern Freeway Extension, this corridor will become the next growth frontier for Thane real estate over the coming decade.
- In a market where land is scarce and vertical towers dominate, owning a villa on freehold land in Thane is both a lifestyle privilege and a strategic investment.
