Sunil Shetty has finally completed the first phase of his dream homes in Khandala.

Fully furnished

Called Whistling Woods (as one can actually hear the sound of the wind whispering through the trees), these villas come fully furnished with private swimming pools, a gazebo, servant rooms and a garden.

Shetty had earlier ventured into the real estate business with another company in Alibaug. This time, though, the villas are entirely his brainchild.

A source says, "It's a fully-loaded home, furnished and ready to move in. You don't have to bring anything but your clothes.

Once you move in you don't need to step outside for everything as the villas are fitted with all sorts of gadgets."

Birth of a concept



Sunil came up with the concept while travelling. "The Whistling Woods villas are like Balinese villas. It's not just his dream project but also ideal homes as they are spacious, green, environment-friendly, using solar energy.

They are also working on harnessing wind power. Each villa is something one can dream of having."

Anna's Phase One of the Whistling Woods is complete and Phase 2 and 3 have already started. "The villas are well priced and value for money. It's called the 'S Assets' brand of second homes.



Phase 1 took a year to get complete but the actor-entrepreneur has been with it every step of the way."

Why real estate? Anna says, "For me, this is a passion. I look into it very seriously. Like good films don't come every day, good places like these also don't".

I am an actor, an obsessive gardner and landscaper and have done my training in hotel management. For me, this was the best thing I could have done as an extension of my earlier work."



Sunil's villas also come with beautiful lighting systems at night, "It is completely self-sufficient and low-maintenance. There are signature light fittings and furnishing.

I am very particular about the people buying them also as like-minded people and people who maintain their homes are as important. The house owner will be more proud of his second home."

Though Sunil agreed to let us check out the villas, he was reluctant to talk about it. He says, "For me, less is more. I have always believed in multi-tasking. Yes, it is my dream project and passion."
