Property details
- LAYOUT: The house comprises 3 connected bures built on one level and set on 2.58 acres of former coconut plantation 45 metres above the beautiful Maravu lagoon. More than 1.5 acres have been landscaped with a variety of mature palm trees, ornamental shrubs, fruit trees, papaya trees, and many kinds of bananas, passion fruit, pineapples and abundant tropical flowers which are visited by the local birds (including sea birds), butterflies and bees.
- UNIQUE DESIGN ELEMENTS:The building design features a strong Fijian theme. Soaring 26 feet ceilings beneath insulated galvanised colorbond roofs are overlaid with kuta matting proudly woven by skilled local women. Traditionally made and naturally dyed magi-magi (coconut fiber) is woven around the main ceiling supports and finished with custom-produced masi (tapa) decoration. Extensive architect-designed lighting enhances the features inside and out and there are outdoor power points handy on each verandah and in the gazebo for added convenience.
- Bi-fold doors along the seaside of the three bures and entrance foyer open up the entire southern side of the house to the sea breezes and magnificent ever-changing views.
- Air conditioners are located in the bedrooms as well as ceiling fans in each bure. The bures are carefully positioned to catch south-east trade breezes and to optimize the views.
- The great bure houses the kitchen, dining and drawing room with pantry, powder room and laundry at the rear.
- Clerestory windows high around every bure provide natural filtered light. Cyclone glass is installed in the windows throughout for added safety.
- The master bedroom suite is situated on the western side with a large foyer connecting it to the great bure. The foyer opens to sweeping views of the pool, lagoon, reef, sea and islands. The guest bedroom/study suite is arranged on the eastern side and is approached via a breezy louvre-enclosed walkway with views of surf crashing on that reef.
- Each bure has its own bathroom. The master bathroom has a bidet, two basins and double shower. A powder room is also located in the great bure and a large hot and cold outdoor shower overarched with tree ferns enjoys views across the sea and to the mountains.
- The bench tops and splash-backs in the kitchen are granite. There is one double stainless-steel sink plus one single stainless-steel sink, glass stove top with retractable exhaust and light, dish-drawer and portable oven (the wall unit is wired for a full-sized electric oven if needed).
- POWER:The property is on mains (city) power and also has a backup generator.
- ENGINEERING:The house is designed and rated to withstand an ultimate wind speed of 66 metres per second or 273 km/hr and has full certification for cyclone-protection issued by an insurance-industry recognized Engineer. The house withstood Cyclone Winston, a category 5 cyclone, with no ill effects. The fully fenced property is well drained with generous concreted spoon drains to cope with sudden torrential tropical downpours.
- INSURANCE: Property insurance is assured by a Certificate of Design and Construction Compliance to Australian and New Zealand standards from the respected firm Engineered Designs of Suva and by the Engineer's cyclone certificate.
- COMMUNICATION:Vodafone Wifi, landline telephone plus good mobile reception ensures reliable communication.
- Swimming pool, Snorkeling and Diving SitesThe 15 metre by 7.5 metre freeform chlorinated horizon-edge pool has depths ranging from 1.2 metres to 2.4 metres and remains cool enough to refresh throughout the summer. The pool replicates the shape of the original rock from which it was excavated so that its horizon edge appears to blend with the waters of the lagoon. It is the perfect location for watching the sunset with a cocktail then lingering on for some tropical stargazing.
- The gazebo overlooking the pool is roofed in a fine version of Palmex synthetic thatch imported from Canada. It is fire resistant, maintenance free and very natural in appearance. Best of all, it makes no mess in the pool. The new blue LED pool lights look so amazing at night, with cocktails under the star filled skies that Savusavu is famous for.
- FRESH WATER: Water is supplied from a natural spring further up the hill. The water filter is a multimedia filtration filter (sand, anthracite, garnet and gravel support media).
- HOT WATER: Abundant solar hot water is supplied from a double paneled solar collection panel and storage tank. There are also two 5000 litre rainwater tanks and pumps.
OPTIONAL BONUS OPPORTUNITY: The adjacent FREEHOLD property can also be offered For Sale, which is 7724 square meters of additional FREEHOLD land (over 1.9 acres).
