Coastal city living
How Chennai lives
A city of distinct micro-neighbourhoods, Chennai rewards a closer look. The same budget buys very different lives on the coast road, in the leafy older suburbs or in the centre.
We help you compare the feel of the street, access to everyday essentials and how a home responds to the local climate: orientation, ventilation and shade matter more here than in most cities.
The homes we feature run from compact central apartments within walking distance of cafés to generous coastal villas with gardens and courtyards.
