Kumaraswamy Layout / JP Nagar 7th Phase, Bengaluru — Rent & Buy Guide 2026
Yelachenahalli Metro Station sits on Kanakapura Road at the edge of Kumaraswamy Layout and JP Nagar 7th Phase — two of south Bangalore's most established residential areas. Formerly known as Puttenahalli, this Green Line station connects a neighbourhood that has quietly become one of Bangalore's best-value metro-connected residential zones. The draw is location maths: you are just 20 minutes from Majestic by metro, surrounded by large gated communities like Puravankara Elita Promenade and Brigade Gardenia, with rents significantly lower than Jayanagar just four stops north. Puttenahalli Lake adds a patch of green rarely found this close to a metro station, and JP Nagar 7th Phase brings schools, hospitals, and restaurants within walking distance.
