This
is a truly exceptional villa with an interesting layout which is
enhanced by an exquisite collection of furniture and artwork. Having
entered this private and exclusive luxury estate you’ll be immediately
aware of the overall quality, beauty and the care taken to keep these
homes in pristine condition. Once through the gates and in the
inner courtyard you become aware of the decoration. Large sandstone
wall carvings and oversized plant pots create a private and peaceful
tropical ambience. Narrow vertical windows link the driveway with a
large and well designed inner-garden area and there’s a door leading
into the first bedroom. Inside, the bedroom has heavy, teak twin
beds, and the room is stylishly accessorized with gold cushions, throws
and curtains. There’s a flat screen TV, a dressing area and an en-suite
bathroom with shower finished off with turquoise mosaic tiling. The
main feature of this room is the extraordinary glass wall, consisting
of sliding doors which lead into the tropical inner-garden and atrium. Coming
outside, stairs take you up to the next level and the incredible
sea-view. At the top of the covered staircase there’s a balcony with
doors into the open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining room straight
ahead. To the right is a large sun terrace, decorated with beautiful
plant pots and trees, including the stunning and impressive tree which
rises up from the inner-garden below and comes through the atrium
viewing area. There’s also a sizeable and refreshing looking
blue-tiled, infinity, glass edged, swimming pool. Sliding doors
open to reveal an elegant living area with comfortable water hyacinth
furniture and a remarkable and sophisticated selection of ornaments,
artwork and accessories. An incredible teak with coconut inlaid
coffee table has a carved wooden golden lotus flower as a centre piece;
Buddha statues; carved elephants on the walls; an exotic and
contemporary wooden sculpture; red and gold silk cushions; a teak TV
cabinet and a flat screen TV are just a few of the touches that make
this a very homely and inviting room. A door leads to an outside
Thai-style kitchen, there’s a guest bathroom and the open-plan layout
opens to a fully fitted western kitchen with wooden units and top of
the range appliances. This exceptionally large kitchen has a breakfast
bar which links to the dining area. Here you’ll find a heavy wooden
dining table with high-back water hyacinth chairs and a fantastic
recessed wall covered in gold leaf paint and black art works. More
appropriate ornaments and artwork add to the welcoming atmosphere. The whole of this open-plan area is fronted with sliding glass doors allowing you to always have a view of the pool and the sea. Doors
lead out passed the open atrium to a decked sunbathing area and across
to a separate pavilion. All walls have some form of interesting
decoration such as wooden wall hangings, paintings or carved stone
work. Inside the hallway there are doors to two further
bedrooms. The first bedroom has sliding glass doors leading directly to
the poolside and views over the pool to the sea. Accessories are a deep
purple and the room has a dressing area, a flat screen TV and an
en-suite shower room finished with lilac mosaic tiling.
The next
bedroom has a partially canopied teak bed with crisp white sheets and
gold cushions and throws. A flat screen TV, en-suite shower room with
turquoise tiles, and doors leading to a poolside terrace complete the
room. From the hallway stairs lead up and into a tasteful lounge
and office area which forms part of the master-suite. Doors open into
the indulgent and luxurious master bedroom complete with centrally
placed four-poster bed with linen drapes that faces out to the
panoramic sea-view. A separate walk-in dressing area leads into the
en-suite. In here white, twin sinks sit on a dark wooden unit backed
with blue mosaic tiles. Wooden steps lead up to the sunken double
bathtub which sits in the centre of a huge window looking out to sea
and there’s a separate walk-in shower with blue mosaic tiles too.
Textured sand stone floor and wall tiles complete the natural tropical
feel. This villa is a sensational property with supreme views and
represents flexible and practical accommodation in a spectacular
location.
