Serene Communities enters Mysuru with the launch of Serene Sagara

Serene Communities by Columbia Pacific (a brand of Lifebridge Group), India`s leading senior living provider, has announced its entry into Mysuru with the launch of Serene Sagara, an independent senior living community in Shyadanahalli. The project is being developed in partnership with Astor, a reputed real estate developer group with an 85-year legacy in Mysuru. Named after the iconic Krishnaraja Sagara (KRS), Serene Sagara draws inspiration from Mysuru`s enduring values of thoughtful planning and harmony with nature.

The launch was held in the presence of Mr. Vikram Muthanna, Chairman and Managing Editor at Academy Newspapers Pvt. Ltd, alongside the leadership of Lifebridge Group, including Mr. Rajagopal G. and Dr. Reema Nadig, as well as the managing partners of Astor, including Mr. C R Hanumanth, Mr. Krishna Rao C H, and Mr. Abhinav Sriprakash.

Spread across approximately 2.02 acres, and developed with an investment of over ₹80 crore, Serene Sagara is a Ground + 8-floor development comprising 112 thoughtfully designed residences. Designed for independent senior living, the homes maximise natural light, ventilation, and privacy while incorporating senior-friendly design features such as anti-skid flooring and smooth, edge-free finishes. Select first-floor residences offer extended private terraces. The community also features a 15,000 sq. ft. clubhouse with dedicated senior friendly spaces for wellness, recreation, dining, and social engagement.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Rajagopal G., Co-Founder, Director & Group CEO, Lifebridge Group, said:

"Our entry into Mysuru reflects our conviction that the next phase of India`s senior living growth will be driven by vibrant Tier 2 cities. With its strong healthcare ecosystem, modern infrastructure, green spaces, and serene quality of life, Mysuru is emerging as a natural hub for senior living. Today`s seniors are seeking more than just a home. They want the support to live healthier, longer, and more independent lives. At Serene Sagara, we deliver that through a fully managed lifestyle supported by preventive wellness, 24/7 professional care, and seamless access to medical support, enabling residents to live with confidence, dignity, and independence."

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. C. R. Hanumanth, Managing Partner, Astor, said:

"Over the decades, we have had the privilege of witnessing Mysuru`s remarkable evolution while building lasting trust within the community. Today, the city is witnessing a growing need for thoughtfully designed senior living, driven by families whose children are based overseas or in other metropolitan cities. As Mysuru naturally emerges as a preferred retirement destination, entering this segment was about findining the right partner. By combining the trust, we have built in Mysuru with Serene Communities` pioneering operational expertise and shared values, we aim to create a world-class environment where seniors can enjoy an independent, maintenance-free lifestyle with comfort and peace of mind."

The launch of Serene Sagara reflects the growing national demand for purpose-built, professionally managed senior living communities. By establishing this community, Serene Communities continues to empower older adults to embrace their golden years with comfort, confidence, and dignity.
