Property for Sale & Rent in Vadavalli, Coimbatore

Living in Vadavalli

Vadavalli is a green, residential suburb on the western side of Coimbatore, on the road to the Marudhamalai temple and the foothills of the Western Ghats. Bharathiar University, several colleges and a line of schools sit along the Marudhamalai and Thondamuthur roads. It is cooler and quieter than the city centre, and it is the classic choice for families who want an independent house on their own plot.

Getting around

• Roads: Marudhamalai Road to Saibaba Colony and the city, Thondamuthur Road to the south, and the Kalveerampalayam link roads.
• Buses: frequent town buses along Marudhamalai Road to Gandhipuram and the railway station.
• Rail: Coimbatore Junction is about 25 to 35 minutes away.
• Airport: about 45 to 60 minutes across the city via Avinashi Road.

Daily life

Vadavalli has daily markets, supermarkets, schools, clinics and the university campus, with the larger hospitals of Saibaba Colony and R.S. Puram 15 to 20 minutes away. Weekend life revolves around the Marudhamalai temple, the hills and the quiet layout roads. Kalveerampalayam and Thondamuthur Road around it have newer plot layouts.

Homes you will find

Independent houses on plots of 3 to 6 cents, DTCP-approved plots in older and newer layouts, and a growing number of 2 and 3 BHK flats along Marudhamalai Road. Prices are below R.S. Puram and Saravanampatti, and rents are moderate, with demand from university staff, students and families.

Checks before you buy or rent here

• Approvals: verify DTCP approval for plots; some older layouts on the outskirts are unapproved.
• Water: borewell depth varies with the rocky ground near the hills; ask about supply in summer.
• Roads and lighting: inner layouts towards the hills can lack finished roads; visit after dark once.
• Elephant and forest edge: plots close to the forest boundary face wildlife movement; check the location.
