Area Overview
What makes Basapura special
Basapura sits on the outer southern fringe between Hosur Road and the Bannerghatta side, and it has filled with apartment development over the last decade for one reason — Electronic City is about ten minutes away.
The original village sits alongside the newer stock, and open land continues south and west.
It is genuinely outer: retail, healthcare and road provision are all still catching up, and most of daily life means a drive to Electronic City or Bommanahalli.
