Arrival is through an arched gateway in a plaster-and-brick wall, lantern-lit and half swallowed by palms, opening onto a stone path that winds through the greenery. Beyond it, inside a gated farm estate on Bengaluru's northern edge, nearly an acre unfolds in lawn, planting and stone pathways — home to a three-bedroom villa and a single tented suite, set apart yet sharing everything the estate offers.

The villa anchors the property. Sloping tiled roofs, exposed brick and hand-finished timber lend it a grounded, unhurried elegance. A sheltered sit-out by the front door, backed by rough stone and facing into the trees, is where most evenings begin. Indoors, woven pendants hang from beamed ceilings, brick catches the afternoon light, and deep sofas invite slow afternoons. Three bedrooms open into forest and garden views, two onto private patios, one onto a first-floor balcony.
