The main estate is comprised of three buildings: the main house, the pool house, and the private guest house.

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 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 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.

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.

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.
