A farmhouse that is always ready for you.

A private enclave of managed farmhouses, 18 km from Pavagadh. Live here through the year, or arrive for a weekend, and find the house, the grounds and the household ready.

PRIVATE FAMILY ESTATES
Artist's impression

Ready, whether you live here or only visit.

A farmhouse that is used only on some days still needs someone to look after it on all the others. In this enclave an estate team keeps the grounds, the roads, the water, the power and the security running all year, so the house is never left to itself.

If you live here

A household that keeps the estate running through the year, with an office, a kitchen and staff on site.

If you arrive for a weekend

You are received at the gate, your driver and your staff have their own quarters, and the house is ready when you walk in.

While you are away

The grounds stay tended, the gate stays watched and the house stays looked after.

Managed, so that a family never has to manage it.

Everything the enclave holds, so that each house does not have to.

Each house keeps what a family wants close. The enclave holds what no single house can: a gate and an office, a kitchen for gatherings, rooms for guests, quarters for staff and drivers, and open land with water and trails.

Within every house

  • Four bedroom suites
  • Living and dining rooms, a family kitchen and a pantry
  • A swimming pool and deck
  • A stepwell-style water court
  • A garba lawn
  • A pergola with a fire pit
  • An orchard and a kitchen garden
  • Parking for the family's cars
  • A ground-floor wing for family celebrations

One quiet rule.

Everyone who serves the enclave arrives and works at the gate. The owners' avenue stays quiet.

Arrange a private visit

Eighteen kilometres from Pavagadh.

Pavagadh rises from the plains of eastern Gujarat, crowned by the Kalika Mata temple, one of the Shakti Peethas, which pilgrims reach on foot or by ropeway. At its foot lie the ruins of Champaner, part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004. The enclave is close enough for a morning at the temple or among the old mosques, and far enough for quiet.

Worth knowing

Champaner-Pavagadh was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004.

Nirantar means unbroken. Vasudha means the earth.

The name states the purpose: a place built so that a family can keep returning to the same land, season after season and generation after generation.

By introduction.

The enclave is offered by introduction. If you would like to be introduced, or to visit, tell us a little about your family and we will write to you.

We will use these details only to reply to you.
