Chapter 1217 1217 Luxury Villa

Malibu, which was established in 1991, is located in the west of Los Angeles. It is a typical resort beach city. The Santa Monica Mountains consist of several parks and canyons to the south, and the twenty-seven-mile-long Pacific Coast main line to the north. The beachfront stretches, countless sandy beaches, uninterrupted views, clean and private living environment, all of which make it the first choice for celebrities to live or vacation.

Although Malibu has not been fully developed at this time, it has gradually formed an industrial chain. Not only are there several resorts, countless restaurants and bars, but even David Geffen has opened a hotel here for a year. There are people who come here for vacation and enjoyment in all seasons.

Two years ago, Hugo also came here for vacation, but that is a long memory. When Hugo came to this town again, both sides of the spacious road were surrounded by shady palm trees, and the occupancy of large supermarkets and shopping malls made the surrounding life gradually thicker.

Although it was only in May at this time, young people who came to surf could already be seen on the road. Under the dazzling sunlight, it seemed that the water vapor of the waves had already rushed toward the face. Different from Los Angeles, and even different from Santa Monica Beach, it always looks more laid-back and casual, and the sparse crowd makes the air feel comfortable and loose.

"Dear Mr. Caswell, please get off here." Dan. Romer adjusted his tie and invited Samora Caswell, who was sitting in the passenger seat, with a smile on his face. The car, but his eyes were always involuntarily looking at the two people sitting in the back seat, because he was always guessing whether one of them was Hugo Lancaster.

Dan is a real estate agent in Los Angeles, but he has very little experience, and being a real estate agent often means being oppressed. Now this business is not taken over by him at all. When Samora Casvey came to their company to inquire about the Malibu villa business the day before yesterday, he just happened to stand at the front desk and received a little inquiry. Afterwards, the golden brokers of their company came up to grab the guests. These golden brokers always have a lot of tongues, and they can easily take away the attention of the guests.

But unexpectedly, at the insistence of Samora, the case was not only handed over to Dan, but also the gold broker obediently handed over the company's senior housing information to him, which made Dan ruthless. startled. Because these resources have always been held on the top of the pyramid, it is difficult for a newcomer like him to break through the blockade. This also makes Dan begin to doubt Samora's identity.

In the past two days, Dan took Samora to see several houses in Malibu, but today Samora said that there are still companions who want to come and see the house together. Dan didn't think much about it, but one of them really looks like rain. If so, this made him have to think more.

However, Dan still forced himself to look away, parked the car on the side of the road, and then waited for the group of three to come over, and took the initiative to introduce, "This is the garage. According to the plan, the garage can accommodate three sports cars. If you want to expand the garage, the small courtyard on the left can also be used.”

This house Samora had seen once before, and today Hugo and Joseph came to confirm it in person.

Hugo carefully looked at the building in front of him. The villa was located right next to the road. It was about 60 inches wide (18 meters) from left to right. The garage was on the far right, and it was made of stone walls. It is made of piles of stones, and it is natural and primitive with a retro and rough feeling. On the right side is a small courtyard. There are some flower pots scattered in the garden, which looks a bit empty.

Behind the entire garage is a stone-brown wooden villa that looks only two stories high. A low hill can be seen on the side and on the right side of the garden, so the wooden villa looks harmonious as a whole. The dense woods on the hills became a natural barrier, blocking the sight of all strangers.

No wonder Samora loves this house when she sees it.

"If you have requests, this small courtyard can be redesigned, whether it is designed as a garden or a playground," Dan explained briefly, then walked towards the courtyard first, leading the way, "Please come with me. ."

Walking through the small courtyard, there is a carved iron door between the courtyard and the garage. Dan opened the iron door with a key, and a path leading to seclusion appears. There is a winding staircase between the main body of the villa and the hill on the right. As we went down, the stairs were still made of stone-brown wood planks, and on the side of the stairs near the hill was a ditch made of cobblestones, with clear spring water flowing slowly—according to Dan’s explanation, this was It is an underground spring left over from a hill that eventually flows into a lower reservoir and is used to water the grass.

After walking down the stairs, I found that there is a different world. It turned out that the villa is only three stories high, but about one and a half stories are built down, so standing at the height of the garage can only see about two stories. Going down the stairs, you can immediately see a deep courtyard in the shape of a "concave", which is divided into two parts.

At the far end is a huge swimming pool. The blue water reflects the dazzling sun and sparkles. At the end of the swimming pool is a green grass with a tennis net on it, and then there are iron railings at the far end. , if you go forward, you can see a small iron fence on the right side, push it open and a marble-stacked staircase will appear, which can lead all the way to the beach below.

"The beach below is separated by cliffs," Dan explained to Hugo and Joseph, who were standing on the railing as he walked over to the tennis lawn. He pointed to the gradually rising hills on his right, and there was no road. It leads to the sandy beach below, and the left-hand side of the sandy beach extends forward, and finally merges with the sea, "so it is a private beach."

The beach below is actually not big. It is estimated that it will disappear when the tide is high. When the tide is low, it is half the size of a basketball court, but it is indeed a good gimmick. Standing on the grass, the sea breeze raging in all directions is madly pouring in, and when you look up, you can see the sea and sky that are connected together, and the ignorant and endless blue can't find the dividing line at all. In the distance, one or two white sails can be seen floating on the sea, but the surrounding is more and more quiet.

Going back, the swimming pool is a rectangular lotus pond, a small pond surrounded by gray-brown stones, with three lotus flowers floating on it, but it looks a little decadent. I don't know if it's because of acclimatization or because it hasn't been taken care of for a long time.

The lotus pond divides the courtyard into two parts. The left side is connected to the stairs that just came in, and the right side is a stone path that allows a car to pass through. Blocks of marble slabs are placed above the sub, creating a path from the tennis court all the way to the indoor road. On the right side of the road is a row of palm trees that are not tall. Below the palm trees is a row of unknown shrubs. Behind the palm trees is a part of the "concave" shape. It is estimated that you can see it after entering the room. .

Walking behind the lotus pond, this is an open-air gathering place. On the left side of the cobblestone path is a low platform built with wooden floors. It is not a problem to accommodate at least 20 people. There are a few rattan wooden chairs and a rectangular wooden table on it. , and two azure beach chairs. It's a good idea if you need to have a BBQ or a party here.

Passing through this courtyard, you can directly enter the first floor of the villa. There are floor-to-ceiling glass windows that can be pushed and pulled between indoors and outdoors to prevent the invasion of sea breeze and heavy rain.

The first floor is obviously the reception hall. Entering from the outside, it is a dark gray carpet with a complete set of dark brown sofas. Opposite the sofa is a whole stone wall. There is a TV cabinet on the stone wall, but it is currently empty. Yes, there are places to place speakers on both sides, which are also empty at this time.

Behind the guest seating is a long bar, like a formal bar, at the end of which is the kitchen and then the dining room. On the opposite side of the restaurant are the gym, sauna and bathroom. The overall color palette is stone brown, off-white and light gray, which is simple and generous.

Between the dining room and the gym is a wooden spiral staircase leading to the second floor. The second floor is the housing. There are four rooms in total, all of which are equipped with separate bathrooms. There is even a small living room between the four rooms. There is a sofa and coffee table, so that people can sit here and chat before going to bed. The second floor is all decorated in light blue, mint green, lemon yellow and other refreshing and natural colors, and the materials also continue the style of the entire villa: wood and stone walls, which are integrated into nature.

Finally, there is the third floor. The third floor is completely entertainment space. The extensive use of dark blue and off-white color makes the third floor feel full of the atmosphere of the sea. The huge space is divided into two parts, and the interior is two rooms. Obviously It can be used as a study, warehouse or studio - Hugo's collection and musical instruments can be placed here, including when he composes scripts and music. It can also be fully used; while the outside is another world, a huge floor-to-ceiling glass Beyond the window is the panoramic balcony, which, in addition to the raised golf and pool table, has a hydromassage tub, a mobile bar and a small garden, plus a number of beach chairs.

Standing next to the small garden on the third floor, you can see the swimming pool and tennis court on the first floor across the palm trees under your feet. Saw the next door neighbor's house. The view from the ascent is truly amazing.

No wonder people always say that luxury life is incomprehensible to ordinary people, because it is a completely different world. The area of ​​this villa is so huge that Hugo strongly doubts that it will take fifteen to walk from the beach to the kitchen. It's been a few minutes, and the area of ​​a room on the third floor can be compared to the entire hall of their current residence, and this is the result of "simple decoration", and many household appliances and detailed designs can be modified according to their own style.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of life at Vanity Fair.
