With a pool enveloping the living room and
traversing through the length of the study area and an Asian-inspired lily pond
and water feature in the putative master bedroom, water seems to be a constant
thread in this inspired take on modern tropicality on the East Coast.
This house was evidently built on superlatives - supersized rooms (all en-suite) that would pass off as luxurious master bedrooms
in most properties, characterize every room in this house. The largest room on
the top floor overlooks a water feature (and views from the chic concrete screed
sunken bathtub in the master bathroom are similarly inspiring). On the same
level as the rooftop garden, this room reconciles elements of water and greenery
into an inspiring, tranquil space.
Almost all the bedrooms on the second floor are
large enough to be master bedrooms. With his and hers sinks in the bath and a
walk-in wardrobe and a view of the pool- this makes for a second master bedroom.
4 bedrooms in all, with a study room on the first floor.
A wet and dry kitchen done in fashionable zebra
wood, Corian countertops and non-slip granite flooring makes this house a
sensorial delight as one notices the concrete screed/zebra wood/mosaic/earthy
granite flooring combinations- materials so deftly put together by the owners.
An orchid garden (with a timed-release water
spray) runs through the three floors of this semi-detached, presenting another
unique feature in this house.
