Ask anyone who flies often where they’d like to live in Bangalore, and the north will come up quickly. The area around Kempegowda International Airport (KIAL) combines connectivity with something that’s getting harder to find in the city: open, green space.
It’s also the setting for The Midsummer Rain, a lakeside villa community off IVC Road. Here’s what living in the area looks like, using the community’s location as a reference point.
Getting around
Air
The Midsummer Rain is 10 minutes from KIAL, which puts the airport within easy reach of a morning departure.
Road
The community is 5 minutes off Bellary Road, and the Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR) is part of the area’s wider road network.
Rail and metro
The suburban railway line and upcoming metro connectivity add further options to the picture as they develop.
Where people work
North Bangalore isn’t only a place to come home to. Its business hubs include the Aerospace SEZ, the Hardware Park and Prestige Cloud Tech, and for those working nearby, that can mean a much shorter commute than a daily trip across the city.

Schools and education
Education is often the deciding factor for families, and the area has a good range of options:
- Harrow School, Bangalore
- Stonehill International School
- Vidyashilp Academy
- Padukone-Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence
- Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology
- Manipal, North Campus
Nature on your doorstep
Devanahalli, on the outskirts of Bangalore, is known for its greenery and calm surroundings, and for its rich history. The Midsummer Rain makes the most of this setting, with a 200-acre natural lake right next to the community.
It’s what Capstone Life means by “practice meaningful living set in the heart of North Bangalore”: close to important infrastructure, yet amidst nature.
Is North Bangalore right for you?
It could be a strong fit if:
- You travel frequently and value being close to the airport
- Your work is based in the northern business hubs
- You’d like more green space and a lake view as part of everyday life
