Villa 380 - The Orchard House

Villa Description

Accommodation
At the end of a small laneway a traditional Balinese door opens to reveal a magical urban oasis. The front doors open to an inviting foyer which sets the scene for the whole villa. A staircase off the foyer leads up to the master bedroom and childrens bedroom, where another set of steps climbs to a rooftop library with delightful views across the garden and surrounding neighborhood. Downstairs rests the media room, two guest bedrooms, kitchen, breakfast nook, open-plan living and dining room, and large sitting room called the Big room.

Master bedroom
The spacious air-conditioned master bedroom with its white wooden ceiling, hardwood floors, ensuite bathroom, king-size bed and library sitting area is the perfect place for those who wish to unwind and relax while taking in the garden views. This room is ideal for parents who like to have their children close at hand as the childrens room is accessed directly off the master suites dressing area.

Childrens room
The childrens bedroom is divided by a wooden doorway into two separate air conditioned spaces. The first area is fitted out with a white bunk bed, bright pink furnishings, shelves, cupboards and play space, while an annex features two single beds with white and turquoise furnishings (suitable for children and teenagers only).

Guest rooms
Accessed via the media room or garden veranda, the connecting downstairs guest rooms, which are cooled by both air conditioning and ceiling fans, feature green and white hand-painted cement tiles from one of Balis most famous artistic villages, Sidemen. As well as opening onto the garden, the bathroom has a clear glass ceiling above the tub to give the effect of bathing under the stars. These two guest rooms are ideally set up for a family with young children.

Garden bungalow
Across the garden from the two guest rooms stands the air-conditioned garden bungalow -  discreetly located for those craving extra privacy. Traditional Balinese doors lead to an ensuite with a terrazzo tub and handheld shower and twin basins set in a teak vanity. The bathroom also opens onto the garden - the perfect place for taking a relaxing bath.

Indoor living
Guests at The Orchard House are spoilt for choice when it comes to indoor living spaces. The villa has been decorated by the owners, with each piece of furniture designed to create a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere with old world charm. The artwork and antiques have been collected from worldwide travels including Morocco, Turkey, Africa, South-east Asia and India. Most of the paintings are by famous Balinese artists with the odd Picasso or John Lennon print and Burmese masterpiece scattered in between.

Outdoor living
One of the highlights of The Orchard House is its stunning garden with swaying coconut palms, towering trees and exotic blooms. While the children are kept well entertained with the tree house, swings and the 13-metre swimming pool which has a special shallow section, adults can lie back on the sun loungers and daybed or take refuge in the poolside bal.
