What a 240 square yard plot means in Gulzar-e-Hijri
A 240 square yard plot in Gulzar-e-Hijri can hold a family house, a car, and some open ground. It cannot hold all three if a double-height foyer is allowed to eat a bedroom.
What usually goes wrong
Treating 240 as a double of 120 produces the wrong stair and the wrong car turning. We measure the plot before we draw either.
Labor rate
The labor rate is for this footprint. It is not a 120 yard rate multiplied. On a labor rate we build the bungalow and you arrange the material. The veranda and the stair are still drawn first. A labor gang cannot invent them on site without costing you the room they occupy.
With material
With material, the roof and the stair are the lines that move. They are different problems from a 120. With material, we supply what the bungalow scope lists and we build it. Shade, the roof, and the wet areas are in that list. A glass front is not a substitute for a veranda that works in June.
What moves the figure
A bungalow rate in Gulzar-e-Hijri moves with the covered area, whether the car actually fits the lane, and whether the contract is labor only or with material.

240 square yard house in Gulzar-e-Hijri
A 240 square yard house in Gulzar-e-Hijri has room to make a mistake look generous. A double-height foyer can eat a bedroom and still leave yardage on the drawing. We check the plot is actually 240 on the ground before we draw that covered area.
People compare a 240 yard house with a 120 as if one were a double of the other. The roof, the stair, and the car turning are different, and so is the rate. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690 for the labor rate or the rate with material in Gulzar-e-Hijri.
Corner plots in Gulzar-e-Hijri invite a house that shows two streets and forgets a private court. We keep one side quiet. The second frontage is not a reason to glaze everything.
On this ground
From the Gulshan-e-Maymar office, Gulzar-e-Hijri is close enough that the person who walked the plot can still be the person at the pour.
If the Gulzar-e-Hijri plot is filled, the footing follows the soil in the hole. A detail borrowed from another block is only a guess.
It is close enough to Gulshan-e-Maymar for weekly site walks without a separate camp. Streets are mixed: some tight, some open. The method follows the street.
Houses of different ages share a block. Groundwater and roof leaks show up more often than exotic soil problems. We look at the neighbour's courtyard before we set our plinth, because water does not respect a boundary wall.
Can you build a 240 square yard house in Gulzar-e-Hijri?
Yes, when the papers and the lane agree that the plot is 240. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690. We price it as 240, labor rate or with material, not as a larger 120.
Do you take bungalow renovation as well as a new bungalow?
Renovation is its own contract. A new bungalow is this one. We do not mix the prices.
Is a bungalow the same as house construction?
A bungalow is a single-family house. House construction is the wider contract. If you want this shape of house, say so and we scope that.
How do we start a bungalow in Gulzar-e-Hijri?
WhatsApp 0321-2000130 with the plot size and which rooms you need. We visit before we draw the veranda.
Call for the rate
