Prestige Olive Oak, Bettenahalli (North Bangalore)

Prestige Olive Oak is a plotted residential development by Prestige Group on Chapparkallu Road in Bettenahalli, near Yelahanka Extension in North Bangalore. Unlike an apartment project, this is a plotted layout where buyers purchase land and build independently, subject to the project’s design guidelines and approvals.

Location & Connectivity

The project is located in Bettenahalli, off Chapparkallu Road, in the broader Yelahanka Extension area of North Bangalore. This part of the city has seen a steady run of plotted developments and apartment launches over the past few years, driven largely by proximity to Kempegowda International Airport and the North Bangalore growth corridor. As with any peripheral location, actual travel times to specific workplaces, schools and hospitals should be checked directly rather than assumed from the general “North Bangalore” or “near airport” description used in marketing material.

Project Specifications

Prestige Olive Oak is spread across approximately 32 acres and is reported to include around 400 residential plots, working out to a density of roughly 12.5 plots per acre. Plots are offered in multiple size categories, referred to in sales material as Type A, B, C and D, ranging from around 1,200 sq ft up to around 4,000 sq ft.

Pricing

Reported starting prices are approximately:

  • Rs 1.44 crore for a 1,200 sq ft plot
  • Rs 1.80 crore for a 1,500 sq ft plot
  • Rs 2.88 crore for a 2,400 sq ft plot
  • Rs 4.80 crore for a 4,000 sq ft plot

These figures work out to roughly Rs 12,000 per sq ft for the land alone, before any construction cost. That is a high per-sq-ft rate for a plotted development even by North Bangalore standards, and it reflects Prestige Group’s premium positioning and the amenity-heavy format of this particular project rather than a typical plot price in the surrounding area. Buyers comparing this against other plotted developments in the same micro-market should look closely at what is actually being priced in — branding, amenities and gated-community infrastructure carry a real premium over an unbranded plot of similar size.

Amenities

As a plotted community rather than an apartment complex, amenities here are shared clubhouse and open-space facilities rather than in-building features. Marketing material describes a gated layout with clubhouse, landscaped parks, children’s play areas, jogging tracks and 24/7 security, consistent with Prestige Group’s other plotted projects. A specific, itemised amenity list should be requested from the sanctioned layout plan rather than taken from promotional copy.

RERA & Compliance

One listing describes the project’s RERA status as “approved” for an upcoming project, but a specific RERA registration number could not be independently confirmed at the time of writing. Given the project is still described as pre-launch by the same sources, buyers should verify the current Karnataka RERA registration number directly on the state RERA portal before booking a plot or making any payment.

A Few Honest Notes

Plotted developments carry a different risk profile from ready or under-construction apartments: buyers are responsible for construction after the plot purchase, and the “possession” of a usable home depends on the buyer’s own construction timeline and budget, not just the developer’s handover of the plot. The high per-sq-ft land pricing here also means the total cost of a finished home — plot plus construction — will be considerably higher than the headline plot price alone, and should be budgeted for separately.

Verdict

Prestige Olive Oak is a real, branded plotted development in a genuine North Bangalore growth corridor, with a confirmed plot mix and price list already circulating, though a verifiable RERA number was not found independently. It’s a reasonable project to shortlist for buyers specifically looking for plots rather than apartments in this part of the city, provided the current RERA status is confirmed directly before booking and the full cost of eventual construction is factored into the budget alongside the plot price.

“In 2009 I was in search of a property. Before I could finalize one, I had so many questions: was the location right? could I rely on the builder? was the price quoted the same for everyone? what should I know before I issue the cheque? — and many more questions that kept coming to mind. With no platform, I started harshasagar.com to help myself out. 15 years later, these questions still come to me whenever I think about buying another property. There’s no shortage of platforms today — social media, WhatsApp, and more. But if you’ve still got a question or something to share, this place is still here for you.”— Harsha Sagar, founder
