Whiteland The Aspen

When a project's architect is better known than its developer, that tells you something. Whiteland The Aspen was designed by Hafeez Contractor, the Padma Shri-awarded architect, for Whiteland Corporation, which is a relatively new name in Gurgaon. The project sits on about 13 acres in Sector 76 and offers only large 3 and 4 BHK homes. It is registered under RERA, registration number GGM/663/395/2023/07, and you can check it on the state RERA portal before booking.

The Aspen was launched in January 2023 and is currently under construction, with possession scheduled for August 2027. That is a closer handover date than many of the projects you will compare it with, though as always, check it against the HRERA registration.

Sector 76 is in the newer part of Gurgaon, surrounded by some of the city's most anticipated housing developments. It is a suburb still growing into itself, but the basics are close by. Schools in the area include Vega, Siddhartha, Gurgaon World School, Knowledge Tree School, Kidzee and iGrow. For work, there are business parks such as Vatika Business Center and Orient Bestech Business Tower, along with co-working spaces like Instaoffice, Workflow Tech Garden and CoElevate.

NH-48 and the Southern Peripheral Road are roughly 5 to 10 minutes away, and Dwarka Expressway is about 4 to 5 miles off. IGI Airport is about 27 km, or around 40 minutes by road, while the old Gurgaon railway station is about 14 km away. Sohna Road, Udyog Vihar, Rajiv Chowk, Hero Honda Chowk and IMT Manesar can all be reached from here, so the location works well if your work, or your tenants' work, is in the main Gurgaon business districts.

The design pedigree is the obvious draw, since Hafeez Contractor is one of India's best-known architects. The apartments are open on three sides, with views towards the Aravalli Hills, and every home is large, from 2,290 sq.ft up to 4,645 sq.ft. The plans also include an amphitheatre and a mini theatre, along with tennis, badminton and a skating rink.

The core amenity set includes a clubhouse, swimming pool, gymnasium, jogging track and parks, as well as a kids' play area. Behind the scenes there is 24x7 security, CCTV, fire fighting, power backup and water storage, with lifts, car parking, housekeeping and maintenance staff. For a family home of this size, that is the sensible level of support you would want.

Each home type comes in a smaller (S) and a larger (L) version. The 3 BHK - S is 2,290 sq.ft and the 3 BHK - L is 2,795 sq.ft. Among the 4 BHK homes, the 4 BHK - S is 3,243 sq.ft, the 4 BHK - L is 4,038 sq.ft, the 4 BHK - L3 is 4,054 sq.ft and the 4 BHK - L4 is 4,645 sq.ft. Prices start around ₹3.5 Cr, though they move, so check the current sheet.

The Aspen suits a buyer who wants a genuinely large home with a recognisable design pedigree and who is happy in the newer sectors rather than right on Dwarka Expressway. It is more of a family home than a rental play, since the smallest unit is already 2,290 sq.ft, although large homes near business districts do attract senior professional tenants.

The thing to check is that Whiteland does not yet have a long list of handed-over homes. Verify the HRERA registration and timeline on haryanarera.gov.in, ask for carpet areas and keep an eye on construction progress. If you are abroad, ask for regular site updates.

Whiteland Corporation is a relatively new developer in Gurugram, and all three of its projects here are still being built. Besides The Aspen, there is Blissville, also in Sector 76, with more compact 3 BHK homes, and Westin Residences in Sector 103, a new launch carrying the Westin hotel brand.
