Mahindra Roots Floor Plan: 448 Sq Ft 1 BHK and 751 Sq Ft 2 BHK in a 35-Floor Tower
Mahindra Roots floor plan: two formats, one tall tower
The development is a single tower of 35 floors on roughly 1.1 acres.
It offers one-bedroom homes of approximately 448 sq ft carpet and two-bedroom homes of approximately 667 to 751 sq ft carpet.
That is a compact configuration menu and a tall, dense built form.
It is the standard Mumbai answer to land economics: build vertically because horizontal space does not exist at any sensible price.
Configuration table
| Format | Carpet | Suited To |
|---|---|---|
| 1 BHK | Approx 448 sq ft | Singles, couples, investors |
| 2 BHK | Approx 667 – 751 sq ft | Small families, upgraders |
The one-bedroom at 448 sq ft
Compact but genuinely liveable. Expect a living-dining space, one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen and a utility.
Understand what 448 sq ft carpet means. RERA carpet area is net usable floor space within internal walls, excluding balconies and utilities which are stated separately.
This is meaningfully more usable room than 448 sq ft quoted as super-built area in an older Mumbai listing would be.
This suits a single professional, a young couple, or an investor.
The rental market for compact one-bedroom homes in Kandivali East is deep, drawing from the Malad and Goregaon office corridor 15 to 25 minutes south.
The two-bedroom at 667 to 751 sq ft
A well-proportioned Mumbai two-bedroom. Expect two bedrooms with proper wardrobe walls, two bathrooms, a living-dining area and a utility.
The spread between 667 and 751 sq ft is meaningful.
That eighty-odd square feet typically shows up as a larger second bedroom or a more generous living space, so establish exactly which variant you are being offered.
This is the family format and the one with the strongest local resale demand, being the natural upgrade target for households currently in older or smaller stock across Kandivali and Borivali.
What a 35-floor tower means for you
Upper floors get genuinely better views, better air movement and less street noise. That is why they carry a floor premium, and in this building the premium is usually justified.
Lift performance becomes critical. In a 35-storey building the difference between adequate and inadequate lift provision determines your daily quality of life more than any amenity does.
Because the building is complete, you can test this.
Visit during a weekday morning peak, between roughly 8.30 am and 9.30 am, and time the wait. Do not accept an assurance; measure it.
Ask how many passenger lifts serve the tower, whether there is a separate service lift, and what the maintenance record has been. Existing residents will tell you honestly.
The advantage of inspecting a finished home
This is the central practical benefit of ready stock and buyers consistently under-use it.
You can see the actual flat rather than a sample apartment dressed by a stylist.
Sample flats routinely use smaller furniture, mirrors and removed doors to create an illusion of space.
You can see the actual view from your actual window, at your actual floor, rather than a rendering drawn from an optimistic angle.
You can check water pressure, electrical points, natural light at different times of day, and the finish quality of what has actually been installed.
You can inspect the common areas and amenity deck to judge maintenance standards, which tells you how the building will be looked after over your ownership.
And you can talk to existing residents, which is the single most valuable due diligence available and one that under-construction buyers cannot perform at all.
Checklist for a completed flat
| Check | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Visit the actual unit | Sample flats mislead on scale |
| Time the lift at peak | 35 floors, daily impact |
| Test water pressure | Common issue in tall towers |
| Check light at midday | Reveals true aspect |
| Inspect common areas | Shows maintenance standards |
| Talk to residents | Unfiltered information |
| Verify carpet vs agreement | Must match RERA plan |
| Confirm OC status | Determines GST liability |
Verify the carpet area against the RERA-registered plan on the MahaRERA portal, and confirm the occupation certificate position in writing since that determines whether GST applies.
If these formats do not fit
There is no three-bedroom option here and 751 sq ft carpet is the ceiling. That rules the project out for families needing more space.
Our guides to Mahindra Vicino and Mahindra Vivante cover ready Andheri East stock including three-bedroom formats, and Mahindra Rainforest covers carpet areas to 1300 sq ft at a 2029 horizon.
Frequently asked questions
What configurations are available?
One-bedroom homes of approximately 448 sq ft carpet and two-bedroom homes of approximately 667 to 751 sq ft carpet, in a single tower of 35 floors on roughly 1.1 acres.
There is no three-bedroom option and 751 sq ft is the ceiling, which rules the project out for families needing more space than that.
Is 448 sq ft liveable?
Yes, for a single professional or a couple. It is compact but genuinely workable, comprising a living-dining space, one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen and a utility.
Note that RERA carpet area measures net usable floor space within internal walls, so it is meaningfully more room than the same figure quoted as super-built area would represent.
Why does the 2 BHK vary from 667 to 751 sq ft?
Different unit positions within the tower produce different layouts and areas. That eighty-odd square foot spread typically shows up as a larger second bedroom or a more generous living space.
Establish exactly which variant you are being offered and confirm the figure against the RERA-registered floor plan before agreeing anything.
Are lifts adequate in a 35-floor tower?
This is the right question and, because the building is complete, you can answer it yourself rather than accepting an assurance.
Visit during a weekday morning peak between roughly 8.30 am and 9.30 am and time the wait.
Ask how many passenger lifts serve the tower, whether there is a separate service lift, and check the maintenance record with residents.
Should I pay the floor premium for a higher unit?
In a 35-storey tower, generally yes. Upper floors get genuinely better views, better air movement and less street noise, and the eastern aspect towards the national park boundary benefits particularly.
The counterargument is lift dependency during outages. Weigh how often you would manage without a lift before committing to a very high floor.
What should I inspect in a finished flat?
Visit the actual unit rather than a sample, since sample flats routinely use smaller furniture and removed doors to suggest more space.
Check the real view from your floor, test water pressure, observe natural light at midday, inspect finish quality and common area maintenance standards, and speak to existing residents about recurring problems.
How do I verify the carpet area?
Carpet area under RERA is the net usable floor area within internal walls, excluding external walls, service shafts, balconies and open terraces, which must be stated separately.
Compare the figure in your draft agreement against the RERA-registered floor plan on the MahaRERA portal and resolve any discrepancy before signing.
Are there larger apartments in this project?
No. Two bedrooms at up to approximately 751 sq ft carpet is the largest format available.
Families needing three bedrooms or more than 800 sq ft should look at ready stock in Andheri East, which includes three-bedroom configurations.
The alternative is township product in the central suburbs, offering carpet areas up to 1300 sq ft at a longer possession horizon.
