Pakistan's First Wellness-Centric Living Concept Announced for Islamabad

ISLAMABAD | October 2025: Pakistan’s first wellness-led residential development is set to launch in Islamabad, introducing a next-generation living experience shaped by nature, design, and environmental intention.

The project, developed by the British firm One Homes, combines sustainable design with a setting defined by nature. Positioned on the Murree Expressway, the site offers cleaner air, greener surroundings, and easy access, 12 minutes to central Islamabad and 45 minutes to Murree.

The building incorporates passive design principles, rainwater harvesting, and energy-efficient materials to reduce long-term environmental impact. This is complemented by a deeper commitment to wellness, from biophilic design and air-quality planning to spaces intentionally designed for restoration and longevity.

Wellness-focused amenities include a saltwater infinity pool, a sound therapy room, a sauna and cold plunge pool, and a Himalayan salt chamber, alongside pickleball and padel courts. Together, these choices reflect a new standard for longevity-centred living in Pakistan: climate-conscious, future-forward, and health-enhancing.

Aqib Hassan, Chief Commercial Officer at One Homes, said, “This development reflects years of thinking about how people should live, not just where they live. Every detail, from its orientation and elevation to its materials and futuristic design, supports long-term well-being. We’ve drawn inspiration from Blue Zone principles, where environment and lifestyle work together to promote health and longevity. That idea runs through the architecture, the air quality, and even the social spaces. The result is a residence that feels restorative, timeless, and built with purpose.”

Partner announcements are forthcoming, but One Homes has a track record of partnering with globally distinguished design and development experts. So far, Varabyeu Partners and Versace Ceramics have been confirmed for architecture and interiors.

One Homes, part of One Group, is a prominent foreign investor in Pakistan’s real estate sector. Founded by entrepreneur Zeeshaan Shah, the group has over $435 million worth of projects under development in the country, including their flagship development, One Canal Road in Lahore, which is expected to be delivered early next year.
