A perfect property for MM2H visa holders.
From the moment you enter through the remote controlled front gates
to Insanaga, you feel the heart and soul of this magical property.

It is difficult to believe that this modern Malay Style Villa is
just 7 years old. It sits into the lush tropical garden ( also just 7
years old ) as if both have always been there.
The British / Kiwi owners wanted to build a traditional style house,and meld the concept with the conveniences of modern living. So the open- plan
platform which houses the main living area sits 2 metres above the
ground level, to catch the sea breezes and views across the wetlands
to the sea and Mountains.

3 sets of 4 folding louvred timber doors 2.5 mtrs tall from the 12x
9 mtr verandah open the house so that the inside and outside become
one.

The living area has a double height vaulted ceiling which the
many exposed roof timbers accentuate, The roof design complements
the timber, Malay style, full height window shutters and allows for extra
air circulation.
The modern 'western kitchen ' is tucked discretely in back of the
living area .

The 2 bedrooms have both glass and wooden shutters in order for the
air con to be used if required.

Take the stairs up one more level from the verandah and you find
yourself on the 'Eyrie' verandah where you can enjoy the views across
the garden, the wetlands with buffalo grazing,the Andaman sea and
sunsets directly in front .
The timber cladding has faded to a soft natural hue, and is kept in good condition with special oils rather than paint .

Downstairs indoor / outdoor living truly become one. The tiled area
under the house has a Koi pond and dining area to make full use of
the outdoor, covered 'Asian / kiwi 'kitchen with gas hotplate, Charcoal BBQ
and woks .
Tropical foliage of the garden encroaches and adds ambience.

Then take a walk along the many paths through a garden which at every
turn creates a new atmosphere. More than 20 varieties of Palms,
Frangipanis, Orchids clinging and flowering on trees, Bougainvillea,
Hibiscus, Flame of the forest, Ficus, and many more species. Cross
the bridge of the outdoor Koi ponds to the sound of gently flowing
waterfalls, and head towards the swing seat hidden in a quiet corner .

This is not all- in the garden are also 2 self contained guest houses
- bathroom, refrigerator, granite worktop, air con, fans and large airy verandahs with overhead fan.
Ideal for giving visitors their own space or for holiday rentals.

Follow the path behind the houses to a secluded corner and there is
the 14x4 metre swimming pool, complete with a 'Pavilion' to
retire to in the heat of the tropical day.
Lounge with a book and a drink in this private paradise.

The garden has special creative touches- Walls and an entrance way
adorned with specially imported hand -made tiles from Vietnam

Pergolas with climbing flowering plants, views at the back of the
property to the Avenue of Neem trees lining the bank of the river
where the small fishing boats moor.
Rest a while in the shade of the huge Sea Almond which towers beside
the house smothered in bromeliads,orchids and other climbing plants.

The beach is just a three minute walk, and the many shops and cafes
which line the Pantai Cenang tourism area are right there.

Truly paradise in the country, so near to the town .
