Guests will be impressed with this architecturally designed home with curved, exposed living spaces opening and flowing from the library to relaxed living (with open fire place), dining, kitchen and further living spaces. These spacious rooms overlook the fenced solar heated lap pool.
The retreat living quarters open onto outdoor decking, gardens, a well-designed north facing courtyard and pool which receives all day sun and is surrounded by attractive flora attracting a myriad of native birdlife at various times of the year.
