The
main estate is comprised of three buildings: the main house, the pool
house, and the private guest house. Two swimming pools, 6
air-conditioned bedrooms, mature tropical gardens, and a breathtaking
view are the main highlights of this property. High ceilings and
generous proportions of the rooms create the feeling of endless space,
accented by the open nature of the structures and the resulting
abundance of natural light. All of the rooms and corridors are
exquisitely decorated with beautiful & rare antiques from the Asian
region.
Drive to Porte Chasseur, where the huge main structure is entered
through massive double doors leading into a breathtaking black-walled
entrance hall adorned with antiques and artwork from a variety of
countries in the Asian region, particularly China. An oversized Buddha
greets you, and behind its red and black Chinese wardrobe backdrop, you
enter the open living space which overlooks the expanse of the grounds
and the water.
Immediately to the right lies the massive and comprehensive villa
library and study. Lined with white bookshelves filled with books and
photos, this living space is comfortably homey, and also maintains the
fantastic view of the grounds beyond sliding glass doors. Pick a book
and curl up on the black armchair under the gothic-style mirror for a
quiet afternoon or sit at the large desk and write a postcard home.
Black rattan couches are situated on the library terrace, composing a
formal sitting area. This provides another ideal setting from which to
enjoy the bounties of the stunning garden views.
Passing through the library through the western door you arrive at a
large open foyer dominated by a colorful modern painting of a
thoughtful woman.

Carpeted stairs lead up to the second floor, where lies one of the
grand master bedrooms. A small sitting room complete with leather
couches and lined with Balinese paintings and a butterfly collection
offers a quiet retreat from where to look out through the massive
windows and enjoy a bird's eye view of the ocean. The actual bedroom
is filled with a gentle glow during the day, complimented by the light
color scheme; beige terracotta floor tiles and dark beige walls. A
massive abstract painting sets the backdrop to the king-sized bed. A
writing desk sits opposite the bed, behind which is located the
generous walk-in wardrobe and an oversized painting of a tropical
shell. The ensuite bathroom is fitted with a spacious terracotta
bathtub that sits beneath large windows. The room is enlivened with
tropical plants.
Back down the stairs, one continues on to the western end of the home
where the second master bedroom is located. Dark gray terracotta tiles
on the floor are divided by the king-sized bed that dominates the room,
set in the middle. It is situated as to offer an ocean view simply by
reclining in the embrace of the generous white linens of the bed.
Alternatively, sit on the white rattan couch at the foot of the bed,
stretch your legs out on the rich Oriental rug, and watch the
Para-gliders drift by from the neighboring launch site. Behind the bed
is a massive white standing wardrobe, decorated with Chinese tiger
panels set to either side of a massive antique mirror. To the north of
the room is the entranceway to the enormous ensuite open-air bathroom,
which could arguably stand as a living area of its own. Sunlight
drenches the gray terracotta bathtub and wooden vanity. An additional
open-air shower, overflowing tropical potted plants, and old sketches
of boats are added highlights. The toilet is situated in a separate
room.
The spacious bedroom verandah of dark gray terracotta connects to the
rest of the first floor, and stretches east all the way to the opposite
side of the villa where the incorporated open-air dining and formal
sitting area are located. Stunning sunset views provide the ideal
ambiance for friendly dinners with friends and family, or for a
romantic meal for two. A standing Chinese screen offers added privacy
to the large dining room table that can seat up to 20 people.
Traditional Balinese limestone carvings of deities stand watch.
Hip with black and white checkered tiles, the fully equipped open
European kitchen and walk-in pantry sit off to one side of the dining
area. A breakfast bar offers an additional dining area for a casual
meal. The house chef can cook up whatever you can dream up; all you
have to do is ask. An eastern doorway from the kitchen leads to the
staff quarters and laundry room.
To the opposite side of the kitchen is yet another relaxed sitting
area. Here you will find the only entertainment system in the house,
complete with satellite TV, DVD player, and stereo. The shelves
surrounding the entertainment system are filled with antique pottery
from a variety of countries.
A small hallway leads from the TV room to a rich red powder room. An
elaborate Asian collage covers the door, and a Thai elephant walks the
walls.
Next to this guest bathroom is the third bedroom. Ideal for children,
it is fitted with twin beds and gentle sky blue walls. Playful finger
paintings hang behind the beds, while colorful Bali boat kites adorn
the standing wardrobe, which is filled with toys. The ensuite bathroom
with shower is partially open air, as tall vertical windows open up to
a walled-in rock garden. Pastel paintings of tropical birds bring the
room to life. If desired, babysitters can be provided by the staff.
A grand sweeping staircase guarded by Singapore lion sculptures leads
you out of the main house to the landscaped garden. A pathway leads
through the cascading bougainvillea to the pool house. The pool house,
situated right by the cliff edge, boasts kitchen facilities and a large
open sitting area complete with a Teppanyaki table that seats eight.
This tropical sitting area is lined with cushioned benches, which
overlook the 17- meter salt water terrazzo swimming pool. A small
raised sitting area offers the ideal location from which to gaze over
the Indian Ocean to Nusa Lembongan, the neighboring island, or to
observe the local fisherman and seaweed farmers below.
A large bedroom is connected to the sitting area. Bright yellow walls
add to the modern tropical feel, as a dreamy blue painting of a boat
adorns the wall. Mirrors to either side of the painting open up the
room, furnished with a standing white rattan wardrobe and bedside
table. The ensuite bathroom is done in blue with bamboo and terrazzo
features. A Balinese carving forms the shower spout. A second doorway
leads out to the sitting area, allowing this bathroom to double as a
guest bath.
To the opposite side of the estate is the third structure of the villa.
Sequestered in its own private space with draping gardens shaded by
stoic tropical trees is the Guest House, complete with a private
driveway. It functions as a fully self contained unit, compete with its
own 6-meter swimming pool. A wooden balcony and alang-alang roof give
this house a slightly more traditional feel, whilst up keeping the
modern upbeat of the main house. An outdoor sitting area with umbrella
gives a quaint beach feel.

Sliding glass doors lead into the first bedroom, painted in a bright
yellow. Two single beds complete with striped yellow and white linens
are back dropped by two shell paintings. A standing white wardrobe and
dresser furnish the room, and thin vertical shelves decorated with
vases, shells, and photos complete the homey feel. A bright foliage
painting on the wall brings to life the ensuite open-air bathroom,
complete with shower and beige terracotta features.
The second matching bedroom is located on the opposite side of the
house. Modern green floral paintings add an enlivening splash of color
to compliment the crisp linens of the king-sized bed. The ensuite
bathroom features a large gray terracotta bathtub, and a vase featuring
a collage of butterflies to match the lamps in the connecting bedroom.
The center of the guesthouse is dedicated to a large hallway and
sitting area decorated with prized antiques and artwork drawing
primarily from Indonesia. A small kitchen sits to the side, complete
with a refrigerator and stove top cooking area.
This exceptionally grand, privately owned villa, Karang Putih, boasts
one of the most breathtaking views and magical setting one can behold.
Complimented by the modern architecture and fine furnishings, this
makes the ideal vacation home for the discerning visitor who wants to
enjoy complete privacy and peacefulness in a luxurious yet comfortable
setting. |
