Pune's real estate market has witnessed substantial growth in recent years, with various regions showing steady development. While the North, West, and Eastern sectors had made significant progress, South Pune started showing incredible growth over the last two years. Projects like 'The Ark Voyage to the Stars' have played a pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of this thriving region.
Redefining luxury
The Ark is being jointly developed by Tribeca, a specialty real estate developer renowned for pioneering branded residences in India, and Acropolis Developers, distinguished for their unwavering commitment to engineering precision. Tribeca, exclusive representatives of the Trump brand in the country, have partnered with Acropolis Developers to craft this extraordinary luxury residential project that stands as a testament to precision and excellence in the city's real estate landscape. The Ark is a stunning testament to their commitment to sustainable, energy-efficient living. It is a residential masterpiece with striking architecture, soaring over 200 feet high, and with a seamless 2.75-acre rooftop terrace that could very well be the largest in the world and makes The Ark a one-of-a-kind residential structure in India.
The location
The Ark is nestled in the emerging real estate market of South Pune, offering a peaceful escape from the urban hustle and bustle. Surrounded by lush greenery and benefiting from clean air throughout the year, this location provides an eco-friendly haven. Situated on NIBM Road and spanning 12 acres, The Ark is flanked by a 200-acre protected forest, offering a unique connection to nature. It is also conveniently close to top schools, hospitals, and entertainment options.
Innovative design and construction
Tribeca and Acropolis have pioneered innovative construction techniques aimed at minimizing material consumption and waste. The broad strategy employed for constructing The Ark was to 'use no sand, no cement, no bricks and no water'.
Rising over 200 feet into the sky, The Ark proudly graces Pune's skyline, majestically perched on one of the highest points in the city. The panels that make up the façade were exclusively crafted for the project in Singapore. The incorporation of glass and zinc renders this façade weather-resistant, ensuring its timeless beauty. For the interiors, dry walls have been utilized to reduce reliance on the traditional construction materials thereby also reducing environmental impact. These dry walls have been sourced from Rondo in Australia, guaranteeing the highest standards of quality.
Remarkably, The Ark is devoid of ducts and shafts commonly found in typical buildings. Instead, each tower boasts a separate service area through which all utilities are routed. This external access ensures convenient and unobtrusive maintenance procedures without disturbing the residents.
The luxurious residences
The Ark offers spacious 3 and 4 bed residences with sizes ranging from 2,200 sq ft to an expansive 2,900 sq ft. Each residence has been thoughtfully designed to maximise natural ventilation and daylight, featuring expansive private decks and floor-to-ceiling French windows. The inclusion of VRV air conditioning systems ensures climate control tailored to your comfort, while fully customizable dry walls provide a canvas for personalization.
The advantages of dry walls extend far beyond traditional brick walls. To start with, they deliver superior wall finishing, soundproofing, weatherproofing, and energy efficiency. In a city like Pune with significant temperature variations, drywalls help maintain a comfortable indoor environment while reducing the reliance on HVAC systems, resulting in electricity savings. These dry walls also ensure crack-free and leak-free homes.
Another advantage of dry walls is the flexibility of easy customisation. They are easy to remove and replace, which makes redesigning your home quicker, cheaper and hassle-free. The design philosophy at The Ark eliminates the need for beams or load-bearing walls that you find in typical homes. This means that each residence at The Ark can be a unique canvas to the resident's creativity.
The attention to convenience of the residents also extends to the bathrooms at The Ark. A sophisticated pipe-in-pipe water supply system from Giacomini, Italy, ensures leak-proof bathrooms, while the drainage system sourced from Geberit in Switzerland, renowned for its lightweight, rust-free, and corrosion-resistant properties, enhances longevity and comfort.
The world's largest rooftop terrace
The most striking feature of The Ark is the expansive 2.75-acre rooftop terrace that sits atop the project and stretches seamlessly across all five towers. Positioned to claim the title of the world's largest rooftop terrace, this Shangri-la offers an impressive array of over 25 amenities for the use of residents. With a diverse range of thoughtfully curated offerings, the developers have ensured that there is something to do for residents of all ages. The amenities include a half-Olympic size infinity pool, a massive 10,000 sq ft kids play area, an indoor and outdoor gym both, a tranquil zen garden to relax in, a stunning sky-bar, and a multi-cuisine restaurant. Cabanas, a jogging track, and numerous other world-class amenities are also at the disposal of residents. Furthermore, there are ample open spaces for residents to simply lounge and unwind in.
The clubhouse
The Ark's distinctiveness lies not only in its remarkable rooftop amenities but also in the presence of a splendid clubhouse catering to the discerning tastes of its residents. Within this exceptional clubhouse, residents have access to a wealth of additional world-class amenities, ensuring a comprehensive and indulgent living experience. These amenities include a cards room for leisurely games and gatherings, a squash court for the sports enthusiasts, a versatile multipurpose hall suitable for various events and celebrations, an indoor kids' room designed for safe and enjoyable recreation, and a billiards room where you can engage in friendly competitions. Furthermore, the clubhouse provides a premium offering of three generously sized guest rooms, thoughtfully designed to accommodate visitors in absolute comfort and style.
