The haveli residence, constructed around 1850 CE, is a fine example of Indo-Persian architecture. This magnificent structure is built around a central courtyard, a characteristic feature of traditional havelis. The entrance facade is beautifully carved and richly ornamented, featuring a multicusped arched gateway flanked by two arched pavilions on each side. Above the gateway is an arched balcony that adds to the grandeur of the structure. Notable architectural elements include ornate pilasters, decorative brackets, raised platforms (otlas), and intricately carved floral and geometric patterns in relief. The haveli displays almost all the typical features of residential architecture from that period. The walls are constructed using bricks, and the floors are finished with cement plaster.
