Kolathur
Kolathur has transformed from a quiet suburban area into one of North Chennai's most sought-after residential localities over the past two decades. Strategically located between Villivakkam, Perambur, and Madhavaram, it enjoys excellent connectivity via the Inner Ring Road and NH-5. The upcoming Chennai Metro Phase 2 corridor passing through Kolathur is set to further boost its growth. The area is popular for its relatively affordable real estate compared to south and central Chennai.
