Gousia House Building Cooperative Ltd (GHBC) is a cooperative society registered with the government to provide solution for residential accommodations in the state of J&K in general. GHBC has already undertaken independent housing projects (Cooperative colonies) in Srinagar. GHBC strongly believes in providing quality housing solutions with maximum facilities and wide road networking. One of the prestigious projects under construction is Highland Enclave, Cooperative Housing Colony, Gogoo Humhama. 

The Project:

Chinar Apartments, a dream project of Gousia House Building Cooperatives Ltd, J&K Srinagar. Chinar Apartments is the first private sector project approved by the competent authorities for construction in Kashmir province. The foundation of the first block has already been laid.  The project site is situated at Rawalpora near Quyoom Colony. The access road is done up and motorable in all weather conditions. Chinar Apartments will initially have 4 storied 3 blocks with capacity of 48 apartments. Chinar apartments will have atleast 60% green area for landscaping and parking etc. Besides, the residents will also have facilities of Mosque, a departmental store for all essential supplies at discounted prices, security and single entry and exit points for added security.

In fact, the facilities, in so called posh colonies are pathetic. The people living in such areas hardly have any parks, health clubs etc within the area. This alters the life style of the people and thus, most of the people compromise on their living style. One has to go far or very far and pay through one’s nose to avail such facilities. We have planned everything under one roof. These facilities will go a long way to improve your life. The facilities will also reduce the nagging problems of your family at home for want of various day to day requirements. Hence, your stress level will automatically not only reduce to zero but also bring in pleasure in your life.

The Super Services; GHBC is glad to introduce the super service system ever in any township. After carefully analyzing the needs of the people, we found that there is need for professional service system required on daily basis by one and all. For example; employing a servant is not only a costly affair but a constant irritant and interference in personal life of a family. As per the survey, the stress level of a man remains in ‘Red’ (highest) due to his family problems. This affects the entire family and alters the life style of one and all in the family.

Super Services is the best alternative of keeping a servant and assistant for various jobs. Our SS will visit your home for sweeping, swabbing, dusting, washing etc. All the jobs will be handled by the experts. Fixing of electric system, plumbing etc will be done by the technicians. In case you wish some one to come and replace your gas cylinder in any time of the day, the help will be available without interfering into your personal life.
