The
villa is one of the oldest houses in the area and still
retains many original features including cool lofty high
beamed ceilings and wooden shuttered doors and windows.
The house still has the original mother of pearl window
shells (xianino) which have been maintained till today.
Particular features of the house are the
shady verandahs in the front that run the full width of
the house and the delightful plant filled courtyard garden
crammed full of fruit bearing trees like mango, chickoo,
banana, papaya, etc. Sitting in the front porch, one can
view the large expanse of green fields and the hills beyond
- a sight to behold. Through out the day, one can hear
the twitter of the various birds around the place. It
is indeed an ideal location for an enchanting holiday.
