From an investor&#8217;s point of view, every zone of Islamabad has its own investment pros and cons.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Zone 1 covers an area of 54,958 acres. It is the most organized and beautiful part of Islamabad with major sector in it including I-8 to I-13, H-8 to H-13, G -5 to G-14, F- 6 to F -14 and also the\u00a0 un acquired rural area of Golra village. Excluding some undeveloped sectors, most of the investors consider Zone 1 is as the safest investment in Islamabad real estate sector.<\/p>\n<p>Zone 2, with an area of 9804 acres, is connected with zone 1 and enjoys a prime location. Until recently, the development pace here was rather slow. Since CDA had allotted this zone to private and cooperative housing schemes for development, Zone 2 has now become the most attractive area of the city. Some big names like JKCHS and MPCHS are also working on different projects in Zone 2. With New Islamabad International Airport in close proximity, motorway on one side and the GT road on the other, Zone 2 is the second most valuable investment zone in the city.<\/p>\n<p>Zone 3 (50393 acres) is one of the most beautiful areas of Islamabad. Tourist attractions like Dama-e-Koh and Peer Sohawa are located in this zone. CDA has restricted residential and commercial schemes in zone 3, which is why this Zone has been able to maintain its rustic charm and serene ambiance. Some old villages of Margalla Hills including Saidpur, Shah Allah Ditta and Talhar are also part of this zone .<\/p>\n<p>Zone 4 is spread over an area of 69814 acres and is by far the largest zone of Islamabad. Some of the most famous residential schemes including Shahzad town, Bani gala and Bahria Enclave are located in Zone 4. Rawal Lake and Simli Dam Lake are also located here. According to the CDA master plan, this zone was reserved for agro farms and to keep it that way, authorities have decided that no other residential scheme would be launched in this zone.<\/p>\n<p>Zone 5 (39029 acres) was developed right after the development of CDA\u2019s zone 1. Due to its close proximity with the old airport, it quickly became a highly populated zone. CDA had approved several private and cooperative housing schemes for Zone 5 and some of the famous ones here include Bahria town, PWD and Defence Housing Authority.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Islamabad, a city with less than one lac population in 1951, became the 9th largest city of Pakistan with over 1.5 million residents by end of 2012.\u00a0 In the beginning, Islamabad comprised of only one zone, which is now multiplied into 5, extending the city\u2019s boundaries to as far as the outskirts of Taxila in the west and Rawat in the south.
