Background
The Plantation at Sanur River Estate is a small, quiet revolution in the Bali property market.
It is the first and only development in Bali where the houses are built using solely solid hardwood timber and natural stone,the strongest and most durablebuilding materials on earth.
It is the first and only development in Bali with the classic Plantation House design;ideal for comfortable, elegant living in our tropical climate.
It is the first and only energy independent development in Bali; each house generates its own electricity from solar panels and LPG generators.
And with its quiet location less than five minutes from the heart of Sanur and one minute to the beach, we think you will agree it is also the ideal location for your home in Bali.
Setting
Set in spacious tropical gardens, in excess of 700 sqm each, these elegant contemporary Plantation Style villas offers tropical living at its very best, at a surprisingly modest price.
Each residence consists of a main villa with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living dining room and a massive covered wrap-around terrace. With all three bedrooms having its own private terrace space, and with the huge communal covered terrace on the front of the house for outside living and dining, the Plantation is ideally designed for easy, inside / outside living in Bali’s tropical climate.
Your villa naturally comes with a large pool and landscaped gardens. At the Plantation, covered parking is provided a few meters away from your house, thus giving you more garden space to enjoy.
A beautifully restored luxury Javanese Joglo can also be ordered on request as your guesthouse.
Quality Construction
In Bali, construction quality is often extremely poor, even in expensive developments, but glossed over with nice-looking finishes. Concrete and bricks are of inferior quality and crumbles after a few years. These houses do not use concrete or bricks at all. Uniquely in Bali, the residences at the Plantation are built using solid timber frames, steel brackets and natural stone, assembled by highly trained and skilled French Master Carpenters with extensive experience of building with tropical hardwoods.
The construction team has built luxury villas for the Four Seasons, Inter-Continental and Banyan Tree in South-East Asia, the Pacific and the Caribbean. Properly looked after, these houses will last for 400 years.
As for the finishes, the standard is the same as you will find in a Four Seasons hotel; top grade marble and timber flooring, the best quality bathroom fixtures on the market, expertly made cabinetry in coconut wood and bamboo, and the latest light fittings and kitchen appliances.
Energy
Bali suffers from a permanent electricity shortage, increasingly frequent power cuts and a poor electricity grid. Formal rationing was introduced in July 2009, and the situation is expected to get worse. At the Plantation, every house comes with solar panels and LPG generators as standard. Having no lights and no air conditioner in the middle of the night during a power cut in Bali is not a lot of fun, we can assure you. At the Plantation, you are
safe in the knowledge that this will never happen.
Obviously, we have only low-energy CFS and LED lights and the latest, low-energy air conditioners.
Green Building
Within this development environmental responsibilities have been very seriously. The solid timbers used for construction are all completely sustainable: we use engineered bamboo, coconut wood, re-claimed hardwood and engineered plantation timber certified by the Forestry Stewardship Council. Our timber supplier is the largest ecologically sustainable, FSC certified forestry company in Asia.
They have closed sewage bio-systems and water recycling, and even the wood varnishes are non-toxic and eco-friendly.
Just one minute from Padang Galak Beach. With just eight residences, surrounded by rice fields and the Ayung River, the estate is small enough to be intimate and exclusive, yet offers professional communal services and security.
Fully managed by a Dutch-owned villa management company with a ten year track record in Bali and another three luxury villa developments on the island.
Facilities include 24-hour security and a gated entrance, a reception and gym, and in-villa Spa and Private Chef services, as well as daily maid services, gardening, butler service, baby sitting and airport transfers, at your request.
