The Perur–Chettipalayam road: from suburb to foothills
The road from Perur, one of western Coimbatore's established areas, runs through Perur Chettipalayam and on towards the Thondamuthur foothills, changing gradually from suburban homes to semi-rural farmland.
That range attracts all kinds of buyers, from first-time home builders near Perur to farmland and weekend-plot buyers further towards Thondamuthur.
Getting around
Towards the city, the road links back to Ukkadam and central Coimbatore; the other way, it leads towards Thondamuthur and the Western Ghats foothills.
Services thin out the further you go from Perur, so check road and utility access for any plot further in or near the foothills.
