For You Me & Us...


“…I chatter, chatter, as I flow
to join the brimming river,
for men may come and men may go,
but I go on forever…”


A perennial stream skirts the farmhouse on its one end.


Sit by the babbling brook, watching its waters flow and listening to its  gushing noise.

Located in the scenic countryside of Karjat, in a tiny village called Vaijanath en route to the Tata Power Plant, is The Brook—a private property built on an acre of land overlooking the Western Ghats on its one end, while touching a perennial, flowing river on the other. Primarily planned as a private family getaway by the Khanna’s, this magnificent villa, teeming with artifacts, paintings, sculptures and souvenirs from world-over, is now available on short lease, suiting your requirements.

The living room


Book it for a day picnic and let your children be one with nature; see them breathe fresh, unpolluted air; encourage them to indulge in outdoor activities; treat them to garden-fresh food. Rent it out over the weekend and revive bonds with your friends; trek the nearby mountains, play a game of badminton or take a dip into the river. For newly-weds, the place transforms into a perfect intimate escape where couples can relax on hammocks, laze in the sun, drop their feet in the rivulet and stare at starry skies at night. Summers, winters and monsoons alike, The Brook won’t cease to please you.

The villa is a spacious, fully-furnished house with a large living room, a gaming area for board games and a fully-operational kitchen-n-dining area on the ground level, while two large bedrooms and a vast open terrace occupy the floor above. Characterized by a high ceiling, numerous windows for ample light & ventilation and scenic views, the villa appears like a bright marigold flower amidst a cluster of fruit-bearing trees.

But what distinguishes the house from many others are the carefully and painstakingly placed art and artifacts. The Khanna’s have an undying love for paintings, sculptures and knickknacks brought back from their many travels within the country and abroad and they take pride in displaying them. These displays give the house a sense of being a home, especially to first-timers.

  1. Highly recommended place to unwind. I was there last week with my friends and had a blast. The river back is the best thing to have happened to this farm besides it being so cozy and home like.

    Thank you THE BROOK!
