Full Description
The villa has been created as a family home with modern taste, mixed with minimal maintenance and low running costs. It has an air source heat pump, solar water heating and photo-voltaic panels.
The property is located on a quiet road with ample parking, in the well designed private driveway, lined with tropical plants, including hibiscus hedging and the delightful smell of lavender borders. From here you are lead towards the beautiful gardens on the top terraces through an avenue of New Zealand fern, monsterosa deliciosa plants and palm trees. At this point there is a generous plunge pool before reaching a magnificent lookout area with curved wooden seating.
To enter the villa you walk past the banana trees, down the stairs leading to the glass room. This gives you a warm welcome into the property and looks out onto a courtyard, containing an old olive tree and a fantastic indigenous dragon tree.
You cannot fail to be blown away by the stunning unobstructed ocean views throughout this property, including views out to the unspoilt rugged mountains and lighthouse. Indulge in breathtaking panoramic sea views and sublime sunsets. There is no traffic or aircraft noise, not light pollution - just the sound of nature's beauty to luxuriate in.
The ground floor consists of an open plan kitchen and living room. The kitchen is well equipped with all modern conveniences, including an American fridge/freezer with ice and cold water. Open plan living spaces lead into the dining room. Internet access is good. Alfresco dining can be enjoyed from the comfort of the open plan glass room.
These all overlook the impressive main swimming pool. There is a good sized utility room and separate powder room on this level.
The first floor has two king sized bedrooms. One with a built-in wardrobe and balcony. The second with an en-suite bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and large balcony. The main bathroom consists two vanity basins, separate shower, toilet and a deep luxurious bath. These all have views out to the ocean.
The villa has patios on multiple levels with beautiful landscaping and flowers. Here you will sit back to enjoy the sunsets and stunning fauna and flora. At night you can watch the Milky Way and stars through the beautiful clear night skies.
For extra accommodation there is a spacious garden house with one bedroom, a shower room and expansive living room space. This is currently used as a leisure room, including a modern pool table and sofa to relax and enjoy yet more beautiful views.
