The property is located at lake road surrounded by greens.its adjacent to vivekananda park. Gariahat is just 1km,Rashbehari avenue is 1.5km. You will find abundant eateries like oudh restaurant,sanjha Chula, udipi. Just opposite to this property is tea junction and coffee cafe day is beside this building. The place is well connected to metro station.
