'A' Frame Wooden Eco House with Stunning Views
This is a charming south east facing house built from Greenheart and treated timber in the traditional island style with a broad verandah facing the ocean set amidst 1/4 acre of tropical gardens. Made out of four main A frames and bolted together from the ground to the peak of the roof, this design makes for a very strong building.

Living Areas
The main house comprises an open plan kitchen and living area, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Open plan living/kitchen area – 24' x 8' Loft bedroom – 16' x 14' Porches – 24' x 8' plus seating area Bathroom – 8' x 6' Bedroom – 10.5' x 8' Pantry – 6' x 6'.
The open plan living area extends onto a large sun terrace via a unique series of drop down panel / sash walls.

Sash Wall System in Main House
The open plan living area extends onto the sun terrace via a unique series of sash walls. This clever system doubles the size of the living area of the house, allows the natural breezes to flow through and lets the beautiful gardens and views onto the Windward reef and eastern coast of the island be enjoyed from everywhere in the property. There is a series of 5 photographs at the end of the photo gallery which show how the walls lower on a simple, but highly effective and easy to operate, counter weight system.
