From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by signature architectural details: breeze block privacy walls, lush citrus landscaping, and bold geometric lines.

Original walnut cabinetry, flame-finished granite counters, designer wallpaper, decorator tile, vintage wallpaper and retro lighting create an immersive experience with a distinctly groovy soul.
At the heart of the home lies a rare gem - an indoor, air-conditioned pool room that feels like a private resort.
