Lutyens Delhi

More than a century ago, Lutyens’ Delhi was designed to accommodate the nation’s most influential individuals. Covering 26 square kilometers, the government still controls a significant portion. Today, it serves as the residence for key figures such as the Prime Minister, high-net-worth individuals, and leading business magnates. The Lutyens Bungalow Zone boasts approximately 950 expansive bungalows, with a portion privately owned, continuing its legacy of prestige and authority.


Nestled in the heart of New Delhi, the verdant Lutyens Bungalow Zone (LBZ) stands as a testament to timeless architectural elegance, originally designed to accommodate government officials. These expansive, heritage-listed residences, surrounded by lush greenery, represent some of the most coveted real estate globally, commanding the highest prices in India and beyond. Despite the fact that much of Lutyens’ Delhi remains under government ownership, properties in this exclusive enclave rarely come to market. When they do, they are swiftly acquired, driven by their perennial demand. High-net-worth individuals are particularly keen to secure a home in this low-density, green oasis.

Lutyens’ Delhi, often referred to as the heart of India’s capital, is a historically significant and highly exclusive area. Designed by British architect Sir Edwin Lutyens during the early 20th century, it was conceived as a grand symbol of imperial power and architectural splendor. The wide boulevards, tree-lined avenues, and imposing colonial structures reflect a blend of European and Indian architectural influences, creating a distinctive aesthetic that sets it apart from the rest of Delhi.

History

In 1972, the Ministry of Urban Development established the New Delhi Redevelopment Advisory Committee (NDRAC) to formulate development control norms for key areas, including the walled city, the northern sections of Connaught Place, and Prithviraj Road. As a result, the Lutyens Bungalow Zone (LBZ) was officially designated in 1988, with further revisions made in 2003 to accommodate evolving urban planning needs.
