Pakistan Town is an established residential community in the southeastern zone of Islamabad. For decades, it has drawn homebuyers and real estate investors because of its location, existing infrastructure, and full range of everyday amenities. The society was originally developed under the Intelligence Bureau Employees Cooperative Housing Society (IBECHS) and continues to hold a strong reputation in the twin cities housing market.
IBECHS was formed in the early 1980s and officially registered with the Registrar of Cooperative Societies Islamabad on April 24, 1983. Development proceeded in defined phases.
Phase 1 was laid out between 1982 and 1983 across approximately 1,272 kanals. It is the oldest and most settled segment, with fully constructed homes, local markets, and mature surroundings.
Phase 2 was introduced around 1988 to 1989 over approximately 537 kanals. It featured broader internal roads and an updated neighborhood layout compared with the first phase.
Phase 3, widely known as Gulberg Greens along the main Islamabad Expressway, expanded the society in the early 2000s, around 2003-2004.
Pakistan Town is bordered by Korang Town, PWD Housing Society, Bahria Town, and DHA. The development lies approximately 9 to 10 kilometers from Koral Chowk when traveling down the Islamabad Expressway corridor. Commuters coming from Faizabad, Khanna Pul, or Koral Chowk can enter through the link road that branches from the PWD roundabout. The society maintains its own dedicated access route instead of depending entirely on congested central corridors. Korang Town is immediately adjacent and shares connectivity along the link road while keeping a separate entrance from the Islamabad Expressway.
Unlike many newer housing schemes where basic infrastructure remains incomplete, Pakistan Town already provides continuous electricity and water, fully operational underground Sui gas lines, telecommunications and broadband internet coverage, and working neighborhood facilities such as mosques, local schools, grocery stores, pharmacies, and small community plazas.
Residential plot valuations depend on plot category, phase, block, street width, corner orientation, and park-facing positions.
In Phase 1, 5 marla plots typically trade between PKR 1.25 crore and PKR 1.40 crore. 10 marla plots are generally priced from PKR 1.85 crore to PKR 1.90 crore, equal to an average per-marla rate of approximately PKR 18 to 20 lakh.
Phase 2 values are higher because of wider streets and a somewhat modern setting. 5 marla plots range from approximately PKR 1.40 crore to PKR 1.50 crore, while established 1-kanal inventory commands between PKR 2.50 crore and PKR 2.75 crore.
Commercial activity is concentrated along the active PWD commercial spine that connects directly into Pakistan Town’s boundary and on designated internal commercial strips. 2.5 marla commercial plots in Phase 1 pockets and border sectors are typically priced around PKR 1.25 crore. 3 marla commercial plots in Phase 2 strips cost approximately PKR 1.25 crore to PKR 1.50 crore. 5 marla commercial plots trade between PKR 2.0 crore and PKR 2.25 crore. 6 marla commercial plots start around PKR 2.50 crore and rise further based on frontage and footfall.
Rental yields remain strong owing to high housing demand along the expressway corridor. A newly finished 5-marla independent portion can command monthly rent between PKR 55,000 and PKR 60,000. For investors building homes, basic single-story grey-structure and finishing work on a standard 5-marla house typically adds PKR 60 to 70 lakh to land costs, with premium architectural finishes requiring higher spending.
Buyers should also consider certain logistical factors. Phase 1 has narrow residential streets, many measuring under 20 feet in width, which can restrict vehicle movement and visitor parking. The main access route via the PWD roundabout faces significant congestion during peak school and office hours because of the volume of traffic from surrounding societies.
For purchasers seeking an established community in Islamabad with complete utility connections, reliable security, and a clear cooperative title history, Pakistan Town is a practical alternative to the capital’s significantly costlier CDA sectors. Its standard residential plot sizes, dedicated commercial centers, and steady rental demand keep it relevant along the southern Islamabad corridor.
