Rightfully called the ‘Villa in the Sky’, John Abraham’s home is a 4,000-square-foot penthouse that is resting on the 7th and 8th floors in one of the residential complexes in Bandra West, Mumbai.

This beautifully designed home is unique because it is at a great elevation and is also a two-floor combined apartment.The design team has combined two older apartments into one advanced two-level flat along with a terrace. 

In order to combine the 2 separate floored apartments, a new staircase was made by stripping down all the inner walls along with cantilevering the interior columns. Well, the idea was to transform the duplex into a villa that was not rooted directly to the ground. 

The actor’s villa in the sky with its Arabian Sea-facing view is the essence of a dream house. The design of the villa is carved with some attractive features that have maximized the house to give it a spacious look. 

Bandra, a famous yet posh locality known as “Queen of Suburbs” where most of the Bollywood celebrities reside in their well-built homes. John Abraham’s lavish abode has floor to ceiling windows that are based throughout the house along with the massive master bedroom. 

The main focus of this high-end penthouse is to offer each room a calm view of the sea. Besides the spectacular view, the design of this villa also reflects the minimalistic and modern style. One of the masterpieces of this design firm is the open plan concept that was taken into account for integrating the outdoor and indoor areas for maximizing the advantages of climate, view, and site location.

Besides keeping the home classy, the design team has also worked on the Vastu compliance in determining the directions of the room. Also, there is a boundary between the outdoors and the indoors in the high-tech glass-walled media rooms, this was done to increase the sense of space in the house. 

Each room and every open area of the villa provides clear views of the sea along with the extensive wooden deck with the garden terrace, and skylight. As per Vastu, the kitchen of the villa is situated in the southeast corner.
