Gurgaon Finally Has a Senior Living Project That Doesn't Feel Like an Afterthought

For years, "senior living" in India has meant one of two things: either a basic old-age facility far from the city, or a regular apartment building with a ramp added as an afterthought. DLF is trying something different with The Aureva, its first dedicated senior living project, launched inside the DLF Arbour campus in Sector 63, Gurgaon.

Why the location matters more than people think

The Aureva sits directly on Golf Course Extension Road, inside an already-developed township. That's a big deal for senior housing specifically, because it means residents aren't cut off from hospitals, markets, or family who live and work elsewhere in the city. Most competing projects in this category are built on the outskirts, where land is cheap but daily life gets harder.

The numbers

172 homes, all spacious 4 BHK units
Roughly 4,180–4,200 sq ft per unit
Price starts around Rs 11.7 crore, going up to about Rs 13.5 crore before extra charges (PLC, parking, club membership can push the total closer to Rs 13–15 crore)
Possession expected by March 2030

Built for a different stage of life

Rather than retrofitting a standard apartment, the design brief here centers on senior residents from the ground up — think an in-house medical facility with a resident doctor, wellness and rehab support, wider doorways, grab rails in bathrooms, and landscaped, walkable common areas. Small things, but they change how liveable a home actually is for someone in their 60s, 70s, or beyond.

Should you consider it?

If budget isn't the main constraint, this is one of the few senior living projects in Gurgaon that doesn't ask residents to trade city access for age-friendly design. Families looking for a long-term home for ageing parents, or people planning their own retirement without moving away from their kids, will find it worth shortlisting.
