What makes this home special?
The Bene Israelis fled Israel and came to India more than 2200 years ago where they got shipwrecked in Nagaon, a small fishing village on Maharashtra’s Konkan coast. They sought help from the local Koli community and made Alibaug their new home. This led to a unique hybrid community, born out of interesting historical events and a seamless intermingling of cultures. A famous Jewish legend is believed to have taken place in the small village of Sagaon and thus was born a fascinating story around this little community.
Built in 1830, the home was acquired by the homeowners in 1982 and has been restored to its original charm.
Painted in rich history, every part of the home has its story to tell: in fact, the well located in the backyard was known to be the only water source in the vicinity at one point.
History buffs and vintage lovers will have the time of their lives exploring this heritage home near Mumbai.
