When Archana Sankaranarayanan looked around Bengaluru’s chaotic real estate scene, she saw people struggling. Struggling to find good homes, honest agents, reliable interior designers, and someone who truly cared about the full journey, not just the transaction. That’s when she decided to do something about it.


She wasn’t chasing disruption. She was chasing better service.


Today, she’s the founder of 7th-LANE, a Bengaluru-based real estate and home interiors company that’s doing what few others dare to attempt—bringing everything under one roof with clarity, care, and commitment. From buying and selling homes to interior designing and tenant management, her team handles it all. And clients? They come back for the peace of mind more than anything else.

“I wanted to provide people the peace of mind I had wished for when I made my first foray into real estate,” Archana shares.

From One Frustrated Experience to a Full-Service Company

7th-LANE wasn’t born out of a business plan. It was born out of a personal need. Archana realized that homeowners were being forced to juggle brokers, designers, vendors, and property managers—often with no one taking full responsibility.

So she built what she wished existed: a company that manages the entire process with one dependable team.


Today, 7th-LANE helps clients across India—and even abroad—with a full range of services:

✔️ Buying and selling residential properties

✔️ Rental and property management

✔️ Interior designing that matches both budget and taste


Her clients include busy professionals like doctors and NRIs who rely on her team to deliver without stress.


One such client, Dr. Naveen C.V., shares, “Being a doctor, my schedule is crazy. I couldn’t imagine managing my rental. Archana made it seamless—and even got me a higher rent than expected.”


Another, Natesh Murthy from Dubai, says Archana handled everything remotely: “She had my apartment under contract in 48 hours.”


A Quiet Force in a Loud Industry

Unlike many businesses that shout to be seen, 7th-LANE grew through word of mouth. Archana didn’t throw money at ads. She poured effort into honest delivery, relationship-building, and solving problems before they became complaints.


What sets her apart isn’t just her all-in-one business model. It’s her mindset.

“There will always be obstacles,” she says. “But it’s your attitude—how you respond, solve, and keep showing up—that defines your success.”

In a sector still dominated by men, she’s proving that empathy, sharp execution, and consistency can win over any client, any day.

Her Advice for Women Entrepreneurs

Archana isn’t shy about the road she’s walked, but she doesn’t sugarcoat it either. Real estate wasn’t always welcoming. But she believes women can build anything if they lean into their values.

“Have no fear. The sky is the limit. If you’re hardworking and ready to accept challenges, you’re ready to conquer.”

Build with Heart, Deliver with Consistency

What started as one woman’s mission to solve her own real estate hurdles has now become a thriving company transforming how homes are bought, rented, and designed across Bengaluru.


At 7th-LANE, the product is a property—but the real promise is peace of mind. And thanks to Archana Sankaranarayanan, many now step into homes that don’t just look beautiful—but feel like someone cared.
