Definition

A 2BHK has 2 bedrooms, 1 hall (living/dining), and 1 kitchen. The notation often extends to 2.5BHK (with a study) or 3BHK + servant. It is the canonical way Indian buyers describe homes.

Why it matters

Every Indian property listing, loan application, and floor plan brief uses BHK. It is the lingua franca of residential design in India.

Key points

  • 1BHK: ~450–650 sqft carpet — typical entry-level.
  • 2BHK: ~750–1100 sqft carpet — most common urban configuration.
  • 3BHK: ~1200–1800 sqft carpet — family / premium.
  • 4BHK+: luxury or villa segment.
