Central Park is a Gurugram-based real estate developer that traces its roots to the Bakshi Group of Enterprises, whose founder Amarjit Bakshi, an IIT Delhi alumnus, built the company from its first luxury condominium into a name associated with resort-style residential design. Founder, Chairman and Managing Director of Central Park, Mr Amarjit Bakshi is an alumnus of IIT Delhi and a first-generation entrepreneur, and Central Park is a part of Delhi-based conglomerate Bakshi Group, which operates across Real Estate, Hospitality, Automotive, Infrastructure and Education sectors. The foundation of the Bakshi Group was laid with an aspiring vision for a better future in the 1970s, and the group functions across various business verticals encapsulating infrastructure, automotive and technology, and hospitality.
Central Park's residential story began on Golf Course Road in Gurugram. The company embarked on the journey of creating the first luxury condominium, with Central Park Golf Course Road commencing as an elite, green luxury residential development to provide a resort-like lifestyle and luxury amenities. That template scaled into larger low-density communities: Central Park Resorts in Sector 48, Gurgaon, is a landmark spread across 47.5 acres, designed on a low-density concept with 20 acres of open greens, offering resort-style living with 5-star concierge services and thoughtfully curated amenities. The developer went on to build a global township model at Central Park 3, a global township nestled in the backdrop of the Aravallis in Sohna, alongside newer residential clusters on Dwarka Expressway. Today, Central Park's operations now span Gurugram, Delhi and Goa, and Mapusa is where that Goa chapter is anchored through Central Villas Goa.
Central Villas Goa carries the same low-density, resort-influenced approach that defined Central Park's Gurugram portfolio, reworked for a North Goa setting. The villas combine a prime location, modern amenities, security, elegant architecture and lush greenery, with the North Goa setting positioned as more than a place to stay and as a lifestyle destination with convenient highway access. The developer's own description frames the project within its wider identity: the Central Park Group is a well-known real estate company, and with this development it aims to extend the luxury-living approach that built its Gurugram reputation into Goa.
The product draws on the amenity vocabulary Central Park has used across its NCR townships — clubhouses, landscaped gardens and sports facilities built around community living. The clubhouse is designed as the centrepiece of community living, featuring fitness facilities, swimming pools, spa services and recreational areas, while landscaped gardens and water features provide a retreat from daily routine. Sports facilities including tennis courts, basketball courts and jogging tracks, along with onsite retail and dining, round out the everyday convenience built into the layout.
Mapusa is not a resort village but North Goa's working commercial town, and that distinction is part of what makes a Central Park villa here different from a beachfront holiday home. Mapusa, 13 kilometers north of Panaji, is a lively town referred to as the North Goa commercial hub, with its buzzing Friday Market being a major attraction. The market draws both locals and tourists who come to buy fresh vegetables, fruits, arts and crafts, and experience Goan lifestyle and culture firsthand. That everyday commercial base — banks, wholesale trade, the district hospital, schools — sits alongside the leisure economy of the coast, giving residents both convenience and proximity to the beach belt.
Connectivity is built around road, rail and air access converging near the town. Thivim Railway Station, the nearest rail link on the Konkan line, is roughly 8 kilometres from Mapusa by road. On air access, Goa International Airport at Dabolim is about 40 kilometres away, while the newer Mopa Airport in North Goa is roughly 27 kilometres from Mapusa. The Kadamba Transport Corporation's electric bus service reinforces this link, with daily electric buses connecting Mopa Airport with Mapusa, Panaji, Calangute and other North Goa towns at fares as low as INR 150 to 200. Mapusa also sits close to the NH66 corridor, the road spine that carries North-South traffic through Goa, giving Central Villas Goa residents a base within easy reach of Anjuna, Vagator, Assagao and Siolim without being embedded in the peak-season congestion of the immediate beach strip.
Mapusa's residential stock spans a wide band, from compact apartments to larger villa plots, which reflects the town's mixed role as both a local hub and a lifestyle destination for newer buyers. Nearby 2 and 3 BHK homes in the Central Park mapusa cluster are listed with rentals reaching up to INR 45,000 to 75,000 a month, an indicator of sustained rental demand in the immediate catchment. On the ownership side, listings in the town range from compact ready-to-move flats to larger villa plots, with premium villa resales in the area touching multi-crore price points, underscoring the spread of product Mapusa now supports for both end-users and investors.
Within this setting, Central Villas Goa positions itself less as a coastal holiday villa and more as a low-density residential community close to a functioning town centre — the same positioning that distinguished Central Park's earlier Gurugram projects from typical high-rise condominiums in that market.
