One of only a handful of centrally located luxury villas, this stylish sanctuary is set amidst abundant grounds inside an urban-style village. It is a stone's throw from the busy late-night café scene along Bali's famed Legian Street.

3 - 4 air-conditioned double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.

Designed by its owner - an English aristocrat, it features many modern facilities inside a large and open-planned living and dining pavilion with several self-contained structures and customized interiors that set new standards for private villas in the area.

Entry to the airy living and dining pavilion is through a set of enormous wooden gates at the main entrance. The elegant décor includes several large paintings by local artists, giving the interior walls a colorful mural-like backdrop.

An impressive dining setting that seats 12 in comfort is the central focus of the space, while 2 large bamboo sofas overlook a long and narrow - and seemingly endless - swimming pool, regarded as Bali's 'longest' lap-pool, that stretches out from the edge of the open-planned room.

A majestic master suite is accessed via a set of double teakwood-doors on the base wall of the living pavilion. It consists of a fully equipped en-suite bathroom, an enormous canopied king-size 4-poster bed and an informal sitting area, which overlooks the garden and pool through a large window-frame carved from teakwood. There are several more exotic paintings that 'light up' the interior walls. The room is also equipped with a walk in dressing room and is fully air-conditioned.

Situated at the far edge of the gardens are 2 separate guests suites. Both have en-suite bathrooms and share a large breakfast veranda that overlooks the pool and manicured gardens. The placement of the suites within the grounds offers total privacy from the main living areas.

Adjacent to the master suite is an air-conditioned library, which features a large wooden desk with a telephone/fax and a beautiful antique Chinese opium-bed with canopy. The room also doubles as a fourth bedroom complete with its own en-suite bathroom.

Also within the gardens - and sheltered under its own thatched roof - is a fully equipped gymnasium. It contains several bodybuilding machines, free weights and a fitness cycle that overlooks the lengthy pool and gardens.
