Adyar
Adyar sits along the southern bank of the Adyar River and has been one of Chennai's most sought-after residential areas for decades. Home to the Theosophical Society's sprawling 260-acre campus, IIT Madras nearby, and several reputed schools, Adyar balances urban convenience with green, serene surroundings. The neighbourhood is well connected by bus, and the upcoming metro extension will further improve accessibility.
