Description
Five / six bedroom, newly refurbished, luxury Sea view Thai style villa, located just above Surin Beach in a top class managed estate on the west coast of Phuket.
The villa faces due west and provides superb sunsets. The villa has 840 square meters of living space on two levels. Half of the living area is comprised of outdoor terraces, salas and a 5 X 12 meter infinity edge swimming pool allowing owner and guests to take full advantage of indoor/ outdoor tropical living. Indeed few if any other villas in the estate can boast the number of outdoor covered and uncovered sating and relaxing areas. There are four covered sala areas for massage, dining and relaxing as well as an undercover sofa area beside Coy Carp ponds and separate open air dining table and covered coffee spot with table and two chairs.
There are two access ways to the property through gated and secure estates, from both the front and rear of the property. The lower entrance way has parking for two cars and allows quicker walking access to Surin beach. The upper entrance is preferred for normal, and formal entrances as it brings guests into the splendour of the property through the well maintained gardens.
Entering the villa via this upper entrance and along the lush landscaped pathways to the main indoor living level, one is met with immediate views westwards to the open ocean beyond Surin beach, framed by the mature trees on either side of the property. The stylish teak interior finishes to the living area with highly polished flooring and carefully, hand crafted , vaulted teak ceilings are well lit with natural light which floods in from all sides as well as the clever gable end skylights. The sofa area with TV and audio system is super comfy and it and the formal inside dining area both enjoy sea views. The kitchen and breakfast bar blend with the living area and provide ample space to prepare meals. Behind the kitchen area is additional space to enlarge the kitchen or add a second kitchen if ever necessary. New appliances are being fitted in early summer 2013. Overall, one may describe the ambience as opulent, but relaxed, and especially well set off by the polished teak wood flooring and exposed teak ceilings.
The 2012/2013 refurbishment and improvement programme saw new teak flooring and redecoration inside and a new roof, all new patio and outside star ways and redoing of the pool by way of retiling and new systems. The living areas were brightened by the inclusion of professionally fitted skylights and greater use of glass panelling. The exterior of the house has been thoroughly made over to bring a contemporary feel to what is a design echoing traditional Thai architectural features. A back up 15,000 litre stare storage facility was also added. The gardens were re landscaped and restocked with tropical plants and trees.
All in all a well designed and maintained up scale ocean view property in the sought after Surin area and just a short walk to Surin's beautiful beach and renowned restaurants and boutique shops.
Priced competitively compared to other villas in the estate and area, and in excellent condition. Potential buyers are encouraged to visit and absorb the peaceful and welcoming feeling to be found in the villa. This is definitely a Thai style villa to enjoy the best of a tropical Phuket lifestyle
