This modern luxurious villa commissioned as a family home by V-Studio Architects, Tel Aviv was completed in 2009. Whilst cutting edge and minimalistic in design, the villa, even with its sharp corners, high ceilings, broad windows and bright pastels, by virtue of its unique architecture built upon varying interconnected spaces and limestone floors, offers a warm and even surprisingly intimate atmosphere to its occupants. The 650 square meters of living space include a huge master bedroom suite, three private guest suites, a state of the art “floating” kitchen and a charming, completely private, second living unit built on all three floors of the building.
Much of the home’s interior was designed especially for the project and includes CORIAN topped bathroom cabinets from Cosmic and lighting from internationally renowned designers such as Artemide and Mobiluce, as well as unique one-of-a-kind designs created by the owners. Most of the major items of furniture were commissioned especially for the project by some of Israel’s leading furniture designers, and include an amazing centerpiece, a huge French oak dining table that seats four as comfortably as it does eighteen. All of the furniture is available for sale.
Throughout the villa are interspersed original works of art, which contribute greatly to the atmosphere and which will provide substantial added value should the next owner choose to purchase them with the Villa.
Although basically designed as a single home, it was decided early on in the planning stage to offer the option of a secondary unit which has been very cleverly designed to include its own entrance and garden, and offers complete privacy from the main living area.
The villa is very well located, less than a five minute walk to the synagogue and tennis courts, and a five minute drive to the township center.
