He started his career as a store-keeper in a textile mill. He rose through the ranks and wthin a decade, he was over seeing an empire comprising of a clutch of mills and other related businesses. With his increasing affluence and stature in his community, he decided to build this imposing new residence in the centre of the city in the year 1924. It sits across from the famous Sidi Saiyed Jali. He died in 1928 and by 1950, his entire family moved to another location, leaving this house vacant. In 1994, it was taken over by The Victoria Capital Ventures Ltd. for renovation and reuse and over the next ten years, it was painstakingly renovated to what it is today.
