This is a masterpiece villa in an exclusive community of just 30
spacious and elegant private mansions, all in waterfront locations.
Designed by the Gathy/Starck team, the homes signature is their unique
living pavilions with steeply pitched roof - a salute to traditional
Asia yet at the same time utterly modern.
Exotic
tropical hardwoods, luxurious textiles and the rich imaginations of
Gathy and Starck combine with the 180-degree sea-and-islands panorama to
make these homes among the most desirable in the world.
Naturally,
each has a large swimming pool, along with reflecting ponds, all of
which are surrounded by extensive tropical gardens alive with birds and
butterflies.
The
accommodation has an emphasis on oversize proportions, which lends
itself beautifully to the open living style popular in the tropics. The
upper living room has a vast wood-lined cathedral ceiling, with large
expanses of glass on three sides which afford excellent views across the
tranquil waters of Phang Nga Bay.
A
dining room with a long rectangular table of an unusual design and
which can comfortably seat ten, is located off the living room, and has a
oversize chandelier above. The room has a gallery above which is
accessed by a turned staircase to the rear giving entrance to a large
area set up as an office, and a guest bedroom.
The
bedroom is generously sized and and has a well-appointed en-suite
bathroom. There is also the added advantage of a decked area to the fore
with amazing sea views to the islands dotted around Phang Nga Bay.
A
further guest bedroom is located on this floor close to the dining room
and is also generously proportioned with an en-suite bathroom.
The
lower floor houses the three remaining bedrooms, including the master
suite, which all look out over the bay. The master suite is extremely
capacious with a large dressing room next to a seating area with
flat-screen TV. The main body of the bedroom has a king-size pedestal
bed positioned to maximise the sea views, and a fitted desk behind
running the full width.
The en-suite is sectioned behind a shattered-glass screen and is furnished with a bath, twin wash basins and a walk-in shower.
To the rear on this floor is a media room, equipped with comfortable sofas and a large, wall-mounted, flat-screen TV.
Externally,
the large swimming pool is surrounded by ample sun-bathing terraces and
there is also a sala at one end with an equipped bar and convenient
w/c. The main focus of the property is the sea views afforded by the
location, and these are displayed nowhere better than from the extensive
terraces.
This
is a truly distinguished property of commodious proportions which is a
showpiece, yet at the same time, very livable and viewing is highly
recommended.
