Search for a DLF The Crest floor plan and you’ll find at least one portal describing a “4 BHK, 6,221 sq ft” unit. That’s not quite right. Cross-checking multiple listings against the project’s own configuration spread shows that 6,221 sq ft unit is the project’s sole 5 BHK — one specific top-floor format, not an oversized 4 BHK. It’s a small distinction, but it matters if you’re comparing per-sq-ft rates across configurations, since lumping the 5 BHK into the 4 BHK bracket skews the average. Here’s what each configuration at The Crest actually contains, and where the numbers genuinely land.
DLF The Crest offers four distinct bedroom counts across six towers rising up to 32 floors, on a roughly 8.3-acre parcel inside DLF Phase 5, Sector 54. Reported unit sizes span from 2,349 sq ft at the smallest 2 BHK to 6,221 sq ft for the single 5 BHK format. In between, the 3 BHK and 4 BHK brackets each cover a wider size band than most Gurugram luxury projects, because DLF sold multiple layout variants within the same bedroom count across different towers.
| Configuration | Reported size range | Number of variants |
|---|---|---|
| 2 BHK | 2,349 – 2,400 sq ft | 2 |
| 3 BHK | 2,644 – 3,511 sq ft | 4 |
| 4 BHK | 3,081 – 4,953 sq ft | 6 |
| 5 BHK | 6,221 sq ft | 1 |
Treat these as indicative — carpet-to-super-area loading varies by tower at this vintage, and DLF’s own current floor-plan documentation for your shortlisted unit is the only figure worth relying on for a purchase decision. This table is a starting point for comparison, not a substitute for the brochure.
At 2,349–2,400 sq ft, The Crest’s 2 BHK is generously sized by Gurugram standards — comparable to a mid-size 3 BHK in a mass-market project elsewhere in the city. It typically includes a dedicated study nook or utility room alongside the two bedrooms, which keeps it functional for a young executive couple or a smaller family rather than feeling like a compressed version of the larger units.
This is also the most actively transacted configuration in the resale market, simply because it carries the lowest absolute ticket size in the project — see the full 2026 price list for what that translates to in rupees per configuration.
The 3 BHK bracket is where The Crest’s layout variety shows up most: reported sizes run 2,644, 2,662, 3,087 and 3,511 sq ft across different towers. Brokers generally treat the 2,644–2,787 sq ft band as the project’s practical sweet spot — large enough for a family with children and visiting parents, without pricing out the pool of upgrade buyers moving from smaller DLF Phase 2–4 apartments into Phase 5.
Balcony sizes in this format are generally large enough to function as real outdoor living space, and most units include a separate utility yard for washing and storage. The wider 3,087–3,511 sq ft variants are less common on resale listings and typically carry a proportionally higher price per sq ft, since supply is thinner.
Six reported size variants fall under the 4 BHK label at The Crest, from 3,081 sq ft up to 4,953 sq ft. That’s an unusually wide span for a single bedroom count, and it means two units both marketed as “4 BHK” can differ in size by more than 60%. If you’re comparing two 4 BHK resale listings on price alone, check the exact square footage before assuming they’re the same product — a lower headline price on a smaller-variant 4 BHK doesn’t necessarily mean a better per-sq-ft deal.
These units generally include multiple balconies and a dedicated family or media room in addition to the formal living and dining spaces, aimed at large families and senior executives who want higher floors and unobstructed views toward the DLF Golf and Country Club.
At 6,221 sq ft, the 5 BHK is the largest configuration DLF built at The Crest, and by most listings it exists in far smaller numbers than the other brackets — effectively a penthouse-format product rather than a standard floor plan repeated across towers. Expect a private terrace or duplex-style layout on at least some of these units, though exact specifications should be confirmed tower by tower, since this is the one bracket where DLF appears to have varied the design most between towers.
All four DLF Phase 5 addresses on Golf Course Road publish broadly similar layout logic — generous balconies, separate utility zones, a study or family room in the larger formats — but sizes and unit counts diverge sharply by project. The Crest’s 2,349 sq ft entry point is smaller than anything on offer at DLF Aralias, where the smallest bare-shell units start closer to 5,575 sq ft, and well below the DLF Magnolias range, which runs into 10,000+ sq ft 5 BHK formats. DLF Camellias starts even higher, with 4 BHK units beginning around 7,196 sq ft.
That size gap is the practical reason The Crest gets pitched as the accessible entry point into the Phase 5 ecosystem — see the Crest versus Aralias and Crest versus Camellias comparisons for the full price and product trade-off.
Because The Crest has been complete and occupied since 2018, every transaction today is a resale, which means the unit you’re shown may have been modified from the original DLF layout — a knocked-through wall, an enclosed balcony, or a converted utility room are all common over an eight-year occupation. Ask for the original brochure floor plan alongside the current as-built layout, and confirm exact carpet area before finalising, since published super-area figures have varied across sources for this project. The RERA and legal check guide covers the document trail that should accompany any resale purchase here.
The smallest configuration is a 2 BHK at roughly 2,349–2,400 sq ft. It’s the project’s most actively traded resale configuration because it carries the lowest absolute ticket size among The Crest’s four bedroom counts.
Yes, one configuration: a 6,221 sq ft penthouse-format 5 BHK. It’s reported in far smaller numbers than the 2, 3 and 4 BHK brackets and functions more as a standalone premium product than a repeated floor plan.
Because DLF built six distinct 4 BHK variants across the project’s six towers, ranging from 3,081 sq ft to 4,953 sq ft. Two units both labelled “4 BHK” can differ in size by more than 60%, so always check exact square footage rather than comparing on bedroom count alone.
Published figures are generally super area, consistent with the project’s 2013-era, pre-RERA design. Exact carpet area varies by tower and should be confirmed from the current brochure or as-built documentation for your specific unit before you finalise a purchase.
The Crest starts smaller and stays smaller throughout — its entry 2 BHK is under half the size of Camellias’ smallest 4 BHK, which starts around 7,196 sq ft. That size and density gap is the main reason The Crest trades at roughly 40-50% of Camellias’ per-sq-ft rate.
