Luxury Villas Unveiled: Scapes Hospitality’s 1842 Kasauli in Himachal

A New Chapter in Himachal Luxury

Nestled amid the serene pine forests of Himachal Pradesh’s picturesque Kasauli, Scapes Hospitality has introduced a remarkable new chapter in luxury living with its exclusive project, 1842 Kasauli. This bespoke villa development, crafted with an investment of Rs 150 crore, offers an unparalleled sanctuary where heritage charm gracefully intertwines with contemporary elegance.

Exclusivity Among the Pines

Spanning 10 acres and home to just 39 villas, 1842 Kasauli promises exclusivity and tranquility. Each villa, priced between Rs 7 crore and Rs 10 crore, is designed to provide a unique living experience, while expansive estates valued between Rs 15 crore and Rs 25 crore elevate luxury to new heights. The project’s setting amidst lush pine forests ensures a deep connection with nature, offering residents a peaceful retreat from the bustle of city life.

Sameer Mutreja, co-founder and promoter of Scapes Hospitality, shares the vision behind the project:

“With 1842 Kasauli, we aim to provide a sanctuary for our customers who are seeking exclusivity, serenity, and a deep connection with nature.”

Vintage Architecture Meets Modern Living

The villas embrace vintage architecture, both inside and out, blending tradition with modern comforts. Spacious estates feature private gardens, conservatories, pools, hot tubs, and barbecue spaces designed for refined leisure and comfort. This thoughtful design fosters an ambiance that is both timeless and inviting.

Sanjay Khanna, co-founder and promoter, emphasizes the bespoke nature of the project:

“Each property is crafted to feel uniquely tailored to its owner, combining sophisticated architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and full-service offerings, redefining luxury living in Kasauli.”

A Retreat for Wellness and Rejuvenation

Set against pristine landscapes and fresh mountain air, 1842 Kasauli is more than a residence-it is a wellness retreat promoting relaxation and mental rejuvenation. The project boasts world-class amenities including a Wellness Centre, a Club House with fine dining, an indoor pool, a pickleball court, and scenic vantage points. Interiors elegantly blend contemporary aesthetics with local influences, creating a warm and natural atmosphere ideal for extended stays and family gatherings.

Riding the Second Homes Wave

This project builds on Scapes Hospitality’s success in Goa and taps into the growing Indian second homes market, which is projected to reach $5-7 trillion by 2047. Increasingly viewed as strategic financial assets, second homes in scenic locations like Kasauli offer both enjoyment and strong returns. Industry data reveals that 70% of buyers plan to invest in such properties within two years, driven by demand for serene vacation homes.

Ashish Singh, co-founder and promoter, highlights the investment potential:

“Hill stations like Kasauli are emerging as prime destinations for ultra-luxury investments. The combination of strong rental yields of 5-8% and substantial property appreciation, coupled with improved accessibility, makes these second homes astute long-term assets.”

A Thriving Market for Luxury Villas

The luxury real estate market in Himachal Pradesh is thriving, with villa rentals growing 25% year-over-year and occupancy rates reaching 55% during summer months. The region’s average daily rate of Rs 8,500 per room reflects robust demand, underscoring Kasauli’s appeal as a tranquil yet lucrative investment destination.

As the second homes market expands, 1842 Kasauli stands out as a beacon of bespoke luxury, offering buyers an unmatched lifestyle experience that honors the past while embracing modernity. With plans for further expansion and investments of up to Rs 500 crore in the coming years, Scapes Hospitality is poised to redefine luxury living in the hills.
