The Light House is a collection of indoor and outdoor spaces created with a complimentary merging of Indonesian, Japanese, Moroccan and East Indian cultures. The home is so outstanding that it has been featured in books and on television programs. We have also hosted photo shoots for fashion magazines and mountain bikers. One of the highlights are the views of Cathedral Rock.
The home is a green home which means it is very friendly for individuals with allergies and sensitivities. We use natural scents and cleaning products and ask the same of our guests. The home is an ideal retreat, family reunion, weddings and company meeting place. The home does NOT have internet and cable. After a couple of days of unwinding, many welcome the break from cable and internet. It is a place to get away from the commotion of life and relax.
Around every corner inside and outside of the home is a place to lie down. There are internet cafes in town if you have to check your email.
There are three buildings on the property. The main house has 6 bedrooms, the art studio is a one room building that is ideal for meetings or receptions and the last building is a one room bedroom with two twin beds and a deck.
The main house has 6 bedrooms. 4 downstairs and 2 upstairs. The master bedroom has a king bed, fireplace, TV with VCR/DVD and small office. There is also a large cedar walk in closet and adjoining bathroom. The master bathroom has a large steam shower and pebble lined tub. There is also another bedroom off the master bathroom. It has two twin beds.
Near the kitchen is another bedroom with two Bali style double beds with an adjoining bathroom with a shower. The kitchen is a gourmet kitchen that has all high end stainless steel large appliances. Also downstairs is a green room filled with plants and a rain shower to rinse off after a swim. Through the green room is the bamboo bedroom which has a king size bed and two full size twin day beds. This room is surrounded by bamboo and a few rose bushes. There is also a bathroom and laundry room nearby. The laundry room has a front load washer and dryer, microwave, supplies and sink. The hand-crafted maple staircase leads to a large bedroom that has two queen beds with a large TV with VCR. The room has a panoramic view of the area. Down the hallway is another bedroom that has a queen bed and balcony. Between the two bedrooms is a bathroom with a shower.
The beauty and design of the home is beyond words and needs to be experienced to truly understand. The house has tall ceilings with large 100 year old beams that were reclaimed from a bridge in Utah. Gleaming hardwood floors, top-of-the-line custom faux finishes, high quality custom cabinetry, and an unbeatable combination and wise use of rick heart fur, walnut and birch woods throughout are just some of the elegant amenities of this sumptuous living environment. The Light House offers a full sensory environment enhanced by inspirational natural and handmade architectural essentials: egg-shaped door knobs, pebble stone walls, hammered tin lights from Asia, custom furniture, mosaic tulip fountains, hand carved doors & banisters. Extensive custom trellises & "weathered" rustic fencing.
The Light House also incorporates the principles of Feng Shui to create an environment that is energetically aligned promoting harmony, serenity, creativity and vitality. An impressive cleansing crystal is strategically placed in the center of the house to ensure a healthy environment. The heating system is radiant floor heating. The cooling system is two swamp coolers in the main house. The house is designed so that the entrance is protected from the summer sun and the south windows and door glass have summer shade cooling.
The grounds are fully landscaped and include an herb garden, jasmine court yard, lawn areas, fruit tree orchard, rose gardens and bamboo. There are two ponds; one with large goldfish and the other native frogs. |
