# Bahria Nasheman vs Central Park: which Ferozepur Road society? URL: https://which.pk/property/compare/bahria-nasheman-vs-central-park/ Author: Ahtisham Imtiaz Updated: 7 Oct 2026 ## Summary Central Park scores higher (5.9 vs 4.1 out of 10). It's on LDA's approved list, though for far less land than it's marketed as, and Zameen listed about 1,400 plots for sale against 146 in Bahria Nasheman. Bahria Nasheman isn't on any LDA approved list we checked, but it's a small, fully lived-in Bahria community. In September 2026 a 5 marla plot averaged about Rs 64.8 lakh in Central Park and Rs 51.2 lakh in Bahria Nasheman. Both are on Ferozepur Road, about 3 km apart. ## Key facts - 5 marla, Central Park: Rs 64.8 lakh - 5 marla, Bahria Nasheman: Rs 51.2 lakh - On LDA approved list: Yes vs not found - Plots listed for sale: 1,400 vs 146 Choose **Central Park** if you want an LDA-listed scheme with plenty of buyers and sellers. Choose **Bahria Nasheman** only if you want a small, finished Bahria community and can live with the fact that we found **no approval record** for it. In September 2026 a 5 marla plot averaged about **Rs 64.8 lakh in Central Park** and **Rs 51.2 lakh in Bahria Nasheman**. The two sit about 3 km apart on Ferozepur Road. The table above compares both on our [seven criteria](/methodology/). ## Approval **Central Park** is on LDA's approved list: "Central Park" (948 kanals) in the 2021 and May 2025 copies, plus Phase-II, Phase-II (Revised) and Phase-III in the November 2025 copy. The catch is size. The developer says the scheme launched with 5,400 kanals and portals say 9,500, far more than the 948 kanals listed for the first phase. The later phases' areas aren't given, so confirm your block falls inside one of them. **Bahria Nasheman** isn't on LDA's approved list as reproduced in March 2021 or May 2025. It isn't on LDA's lists of illegal schemes from 2024 to 2026 either, and we found no approval document from any authority. Don't confuse it with **Nasheman-e-Iqbal**, a different, LDA-listed society. ## Prices Central Park's average 5 marla asking price **doubled**, from Rs 32.5 lakh in June 2021 to Rs 64.8 lakh in September 2026, rising in every period we sampled. Bahria Nasheman's rose 48%, from Rs 34.7 lakh to Rs 51.2 lakh, with a dip in 2024-25. Bahria Nasheman has only 5 and 8 marla plots; there are no 10 marla plots to compare. In Central Park a 10 marla plot averaged about Rs 1.11 crore in September 2026. ## Possession and utilities Both are lived in. **Bahria Nasheman**'s original blocks were developed by 2011, and the developer lists the society as sold out. **Central Park** has been inhabited since about 2010, with a mosque, a medical college and hospital (2014), markets and schools, but we found no dated block-by-block data. On utilities, **Bahria Nasheman** gets electricity through Bahria's bulk LESCO connection, which was cut with the rest of Bahria's Lahore societies on 27 November 2025 and restored the next day. Zameen listed gas and water there in 2019. For **Central Park**, property portals say a 132 kV grid station inside the scheme supplies power, but we found no LESCO or news confirmation, and nothing on gas or water. ## Developers **Central Park** is by **Urban Developers Group**, which also built Punjab Cooperative Housing Society and Air Avenue, which DHA Lahore took over as Phase 8, according to the developer. We found no court cases against Central Park. **Bahria Nasheman** is by **Bahria Town (Private) Limited**, whose troubles include an unpaid Rs460 billion Karachi settlement and NAB asset auctions in 2025. See our [Bahria Town review](/property/lahore/bahria-town-lahore/). ## Location Both are on Ferozepur Road in south Lahore. Central Park, near Kahna, is about **22 km by road from Kalma Chowk**; Bahria Nasheman is about 3 km further out, at **25 km**. ## Resale This is the clearest difference. On 7 October 2026 Zameen listed about **1,400 plots** in Central Park, from 3 marla to 2 kanal, against **146** in Bahria Nasheman. If you might need to sell, Central Park has far more buyers looking. ## Who should choose which? - **Central Park:** buyers who want LDA-listed land, a range of plot sizes and an active resale market, and who confirm their block is in an approved phase. - **Bahria Nasheman:** families who want a small, finished Bahria community and plan to live there long term, accepting the missing approval record.

Central Park scores higher on our criteria (5.9 vs 4.1 out of 10), mainly on legal status, prices and resale. Bahria Nasheman is cheaper and fully lived in, but we found no approval document for it. ### Is Bahria Nasheman LDA approved? We found no record. It isn't on LDA's approved list as reproduced in March 2021 or May 2025, and it isn't on LDA's illegal-scheme lists either. 'Nasheman-e-Iqbal', which is on the LDA list, is a different society. ### Is Central Park Housing Scheme LDA approved? Yes, for named phases: 'Central Park' (948 kanals) and Phase-II, Phase-II (Revised) and Phase-III appear on LDA's list. The scheme is marketed as 5,400 kanals or more, so check that your block is inside an approved phase. ### Does Bahria Nasheman have 10 marla plots? No. The society has 5 and 8 marla plots. Zameen's '10 marla' price series for it appears to reflect 8 marla plots. ## Sources - [LDA approved housing societies in Lahore, 2025 update](https://pakobserver.net/lda-approved-housing-societies-in-lahore-2025-update/), Pakistan Observer (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [LDA Approved Housing Societies in Lahore, May 2025 updated list](https://pakobserver.net/lda-approved-housing-societies-in-lahore-may-2025-updated-list/), Pakistan Observer (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [List of LDA-approved housing schemes in Lahore District](https://www.zameen.com/news/list-of-lda-approved-housing-schemes-in-lahore-district.html), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Illegal housing societies in Lahore 2025](https://pakobserver.net/illegal-housing-societies-in-lahore-2025-check-updated-list-here/), Pakistan Observer (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Bahria Nasheman: what the society offers to genuine buyers and investors](https://www.zameen.com/blog/bahria-nasheman.html), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Bahria Nasheman](https://www.bahriatown.com/bahria-nasheman/), Bahria Town (developer) (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Bahria Town Lahore faces total blackout as residents blame NAB](https://www.techjuice.pk/bahria-town-lahore-faces-total-blackout-as-residents-blame-nab/), TechJuice (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [A complete tour to Central Park Housing Scheme Lahore](https://www.graana.com/blog/central-park-housing-scheme-lahore/), Graana.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [About us](https://centralparklahore.com/about-us/), Central Park (developer) (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Residential plot price index, Bahria Nasheman, 5 marla](https://www.zameen.com/index/buy/residential_plots/lahore/bahria-nasheman-4510/5-marla/), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Residential plot price index, Central Park, 5 marla](https://www.zameen.com/index/buy/residential_plots/lahore/central-park-housing-scheme-1013/5-marla/), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Plots for sale in Bahria Nasheman, Lahore](https://www.zameen.com/Plots/Lahore_Bahria_Nasheman-4510-1.html), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026) - [Plots for sale in Central Park Housing Scheme, Lahore](https://www.zameen.com/Plots/Lahore_Central_Park_Housing_Scheme-1013-1.html), Zameen.com (accessed 7 Oct 2026)
