This home takes on a contemporary feel with simple forms and a palette of light materials. The front entrance door directly off the courtyard opens onto a 180 degree unobstructed view over the swimming pool, towards the golf course fairway in the foreground and sporadic distant sea views.
The double volume dining and lounge area is flanked by an open plan kitchen and scullery/laundry to one side and guest accommodation to the other. Ascending the suspended staircase to the private suites on the upper floor, the journey enjoys the experience of an ever evolving pattern of thin shadow lines projected by the large aluminium screens introduced to moderate the afternoon sun angles.
