If you’re planning to build a home in Mysuru, there’s a good chance you’ve looked at at least three plot sizes:
30×40, 30×50, and 40×60.
And if you’re like most homeowners, you’ve probably felt this:
- 30×40 is affordable and common… but feels just a bit small.
- 40×60 is amazing… but pushes the budget on both land and construction.
- 30×50 sits right in the middle… and feels “just right.”
That’s why the 30×50 site has quietly become the sweet spot for first-time home builders and families upgrading from apartments.
Let’s break down why — in a very real, Mysuru way.
1. 30×50 Gives You What a 30×40 Cannot — Breathing Room
A 30×40 site offers 1200 sq. ft of land.
A 30×50 site gives you 1500 sq. ft.
That extra 300 sq. ft may not sound like much on paper, but on the ground, it makes a huge difference:
What the extra space enables:
- Proper parking without feeling cramped
- A slightly larger living room layout
- A separate puja room or study
- Space for utility + washing area
- Better setbacks = more light & ventilation
- You can plan a duplex without squeezing rooms
In a 30×40, everything must be “optimized.”
In 30×50, everything feels “comfortable.”
2. 40×60 Is the Dream… But 30×50 Is the Practical Dream
Everyone loves a 40×60 site — wide frontage, larger built-up, more flexibility.
But the reality is simple:
- Land cost doubles
- Construction cost increases sharply
- Approvals & taxes go up
For most families in Mysuru, 40×60 becomes a long-term desire but not a current decision.
30×50 hits the ideal balance:
| Plot Size | Land Cost | Construction Cost | Practicality |
| 30×40 | Affordable | Lowest | Space limitations |
| 30×50 | Medium | Moderate | Perfect balance |
| 40×60 | High | High | Premium/upgrade buyers |
30×50 feels premium, without being painfully expensive.
3. Perfect for G+1, Duplex, or Even Rental Floors
The most common home design requests we hear for 30×50 sites include:
✔️ G+1 family home
Plenty of space for:
- Spacious hall
- Kitchen + dining
- 3 bedrooms
- Balcony
- Puja room
- Utility
- Car park
✔️ Duplex home
30×50 is the ideal dimension for a duplex because:
- Stairs can be placed beautifully
- Bedrooms won’t feel tight
- Ventilation improves naturally
- You can design a stunning double-height living room
✔️ G+2 with rental units
Many Mysuru owners use the first floor or second floor as rental income.
30×50 makes it feasible without overcrowding the site.
4. Easier Approvals, Better Planning, Less Stress
In MUDA / MCC layouts, 30×50 sites are extremely smooth for:
- Building plan approvals
- Parking compliance
- Setbacks
- Structural design
- Borewell and sump placement
- Overhead tank positions
On 30×40, these become harder to optimize.
On 40×60, they become more expensive.
30×50 = optimized planning + reasonable cost.
5. You Get a Premium Feel Without a Premium Budget
Most families who move from apartments worry:
“Will my 30×40 home feel small?”
And honestly — sometimes yes, especially if the family is 4+ members.
But a 30×50 home feels like a genuine upgrade:
- Wider frontage
- Better staircase positioning
- More natural light
- More space to host guests
- Proper wardrobe placement
- Cleaner interior layouts
- No awkward room sizes
Without overstretching the budget.
6. More Lifestyle Space — Garden, Parking, Pets, Kids
This is the part people forget — lifestyle changes.
On a 30×50 site, you suddenly have space for:
- Small lawn
- Tulasi kata
- Outdoor seating
- Flower beds
- Pet corner
- Extra vehicle parking
It feels like a home, not just a house.
7. Construction Cost Fits Most Middle-Upper Budgets
A realistic turnkey construction budget for 30×50:
✔️ Standard home (G+1)
₹50–₹55 lakh (approx) depending on materials
✔️ Premium home
₹60–₹70 lakh+
✔️ Duplex home
₹75–₹90 lakh+ depending on design and finishes
It fits the budgets of:
- NRI Mysoreans
- IT professionals
- Government employees
- Families upgrading from apartments
- People building their “final home”
This is exactly why Meta ads on 30×40 and 30×50 topics convert extremely well — the audience is actively searching.
8. Also Perfect for Investment — Rental & Airbnb
Mysuru’s rental demand is increasing across areas like:
- Vijayanagar
- JP Nagar
- Dattagalli
- Bogadi
- Hinkal
- Hebbal
Even a simple 1BHK on a 30×50 upper floor brings stable income.
If designed well, the home can also be used for Airbnb:
- Dasara season
- Weekends
- Yoga festival visitors
- Wedding guests
- Travelers from Bangalore
30×50 makes this possible without compromising your personal space.

Final Thought — 30×50 Is the Homeowner’s “Just Right” Plot

If 40×60 feels financially heavy…
Then 30×50 is the sweet spot where:
- Budget
- Comfort
- Space
- Lifestyle
- Investment
- Design
- Future planning
all meet beautifully.
It works for newly married couples, growing families, NRIs returning in a few years, and even investors.
