At ground level is the open-plan living area and kitchen, all created to be compact yet spacious at the same time. There’s also a twin bedroom on this level. The wooden floors create a warm, cosy feel and the cast-iron wood-burning stove invites you to curl up and cocoon in winter. Outside, in an intimate courtyard, is a sun-drenched plunge pool and leisure area. Here you can kick back and chill out, or even do a spot of work if you must. The front of the house also has a little verandah with views over the surrounding rooftops all the way to the sea. Early morning coffee here is a gentle way to start the day.

If you go down a level from the ground floor, there’s a bedroom with a queen-size bed tucked away and offering the ultimate in seclusion – with its own bathroom too. Up a level from the living space, the en-suite master bedroom, also with a queen-sized bed, is the ‘eagle’s nest’ of the house. The views from here are expansive, and swivel seats in the leisure area with its picture window, give 360-degree options: look at the world outside or chat and commune with someone inside.

Throughout the house, décor is neutral and natural. Colours of stone and sage, textures of woven grass mats and pottery, with touches of living green in plants dotted throughout, make for an air of soothing calm. It’s a place to freely exhale, enjoy lazy sundowners around the pool with family or special friends, or simply breathe and let your mind roam free. There’s off-street parking and good security too, ensuring Number 17 really is the full package.
