VENTURING OUTSIDE TO THE CENTRAL COURTYARD, A DINING AREA IS FLANKED BY A LARGE PLUNGE POOL AND A LIVING WALL. A GATEWAY OPENS TO A LIMESTONE STAIRWAY WHICH LEADS DOWN TO A DISCRETE TROPICAL COURTYARD. THE COURTYARD MUST BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED. AN ACTIVITY ROOM ADJOINS. THIS WEST FACING ROOM CAN ACT AS YET ANOTHER BEDROOM, PLAYROOM, MUSIC ROOM OR GUEST ROOM. ON THE SAME LEVEL IS THE WORKSHOP. THE SERIOUS BUSINESS OF WOODWORKING AND TINKERING IS CONDUCTED HERE - IN COMPLETE COMFORT.
THE WORKSHOP OPENS TO THE GARAGE AND BEHIND THAT IS THE RAINWATER TANK. MOST HOUSES DO NOT CATER FOR STORAGE. THIS RESIDENCE DOES. THERE’S A WALK-IN PANTRY THE SIZE OF TASMANIA AND ADDITIONAL STORAGE SPACES FOR SUITCASES, GOLF CLUBS, BICYCLES ETC. THE FULL LENGTH DRIVEWAY LEADS BACK UP TO THE FRONT GARDEN. A BED OF ROSES, OLDER THAN THE HOUSE ITSELF, FRAMES A GRASSY AREA WHICH HAS AT ITS CENTRE PIECE A YOUNG POINCIANA TREE. THE TREE WILL FLOWER IN ABOUT FIVE YEARS. IN 2016 PEOPLE WILL DRIVE DOWN OAKOVER STREET JUST TO SEE ITS FLASHING RED BLOOM.
NOTHING CAN COMPARE.
