Spread across a sprawling 28,000 sq.ft. plot in South Goa, this villa was designed as a serene everyday home complemented by two guest bungalows on-site. ZERO9 was entrusted with crafting the interiors and landscape, along with detailing the external façade, with a clear brief: keep the space simple, elegant, functional, and low-maintenance for daily living, rather than a secondary vacation home.

The villa’s entrance foyer opens into an 8-foot-wide verandah, adorned with lazy chairs and lush greenery, creating the perfect spot to spend breezy afternoons. The chevron-patterned driveway, paved with reclaimed granite stone, sets a rustic yet refined tone as you arrive.

At the heart of the home lies a 1,500 sq.ft. double-height living room that seamlessly connects to the staircase, dining zone, and entertainment area. A custom grid partition subtly defines the entertainment space, balancing privacy with visual openness. The main seating, featuring leather-backed wooden-edge sofas, exudes understated sophistication, while the dramatic double-height wall clad in exotic aged veneer forms a natural artwork in itself.

The open dining zone, with a pristine white marble dining table, flows effortlessly between the kitchen and living area, combining elegance with easy maintenance. The ground-floor entertainment room acts as the family hub, offering panoramic views of the lush lawn, gazebo, and endless paddy fields. Conveniently adjacent is the grandmother’s room, where light veneer patterns create a serene visual backdrop for the bed and wardrobe.

The spacious kitchen, bathed in soft morning light, centers around a functional island counter, perfect for entertaining family and guests.

On the first floor, a central foyer leads to the master suite, son’s room, daughter’s room, and a shared terrace. The master bedroom, with its balcony overlooking the tranquil paddy fields, pairs warm wooden flooring with rich veneer and golden paneling for a cozy, luxurious vibe. A spacious master bath with a walk-in closet and island storage elevates functionality and elegance.

The son’s room combines light wood flooring with a veneer-and-brown-mirror bed back, creating the perfect frame for the blue bedding, while a cozy reading nook reflects his love for books. The daughter’s room embraces soft purple fabric paneling and muted grey tones, with a stunning view of a mature banyan tree bringing nature indoors. The first-floor terrace, shaded with an angular grid pergola, casts playful shadows over a faux lawn and serves as a cheerful hangout for the grandchildren.

The second floor is designed as a vibrant party space with a fully equipped bar, projector setup, and a terrace overlooking the paddy fields and Goan sunsets. The seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living defines this villa, offering luxury that feels natural, lived-in, and deeply connected to its surroundings.
