_Holiday home of the week: Versatile eight bedroom villa in Seminyak, Bali

Eight bedroom flexible villa in Seminyak

Asking price: £908,596.43

1300 square metres of lush tropical gardens come with this multi-functional property which has been designed to maximise rental versatility.

Three independent and completely private villas can be created through a clever system of retracting garden walls which can be opened to create five and eight bedroom/bathroom combinations.

The current owners have had fun with the interiors; traditional Balinese stone and teak wood carvings combine with Swarovski crystal chandeliers, vibrant patterns and lush textures to create a modern and playful twist on tropicana and local Balinese architecture. At the heart of the house is a vast living space with traditional teak limasan roof.

Tropical living spills outside onto palm-tree-dotted lawns where guests can lounge on pool decks or enjoy outdoor dinners lit by flickering fire bowls among the lush vegetation.

Hailed as the 'coolest corner of the island', a large expat community clusters around sophisticated Seminyak, grown-up neighbour to Bali's party centre of Kuta.

Holiday makers in-the-know are drawn to Seminyak's glorious beaches, legendary sunsets, hip hotels, high-end spas, restaurants and colourful nightlife. 

With tourist numbers visiting the island edging towards seven million a year, this property would make a savvy rental investment especially given its versatility in set up and layout.
