Grand but not ostentatious, this two-storey villa located in Saar is the ideal home for any family.

The gated villa is secluded enough from the hustle and bustle of Saar's busy streets but near a number of supermarkets, eateries and entertainment venues such as Saar Cinema. St Christopher's School is just a five minute drive away.

The semi-furnished Beaux Arts-style home boasts large windows, beautifully detailed tile flooring, hanging chandeliers and pillars galore. The beauty of the villa is that it offers residents an abundance of space and natural light to create a comfortable living environment.

On entering the villa, you are greeted by wooden shelving units, spot-lighting, a large dining room and an even larger living room. Sliding doors in the living room lead to a lush green space to the side of the front garden which also features a corner fountain.

The rest of the front of the house is laid out with granite.

The ground floor also features a customised country-style kitchen, guest bathroom and a sizable guest bedroom with en-suite bathroom and dressing area.

The kitchen is fully-fitted with a dishwasher and state-of-the-art home appliances. It also features a marble top island with further cabinet space and a pantry room with shelving unit and loft space.

The kitchen is accessed from both the living room and dining room.

There is also an outside kitchen with room for a washer and dryer.

The first floor features a second living room with a skylight and five bedrooms including the master bedroom. All bedrooms come with a dressing area, built in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom.

The master bedroom boasts a built-in safe, a Jacuzzi, walk-in shower and a long balcony.

The second floor, which leads to the spacious roof, features another room with built in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom.

According to the landlord, this room was created incase the tenants wanted to start a gym or needed a study. He said: "This home was made for a family. All the fittings and finishings in the house are of high standard and good quality.

"We also made sure that there was enough room for parking. The double garage can hold up to four cars and cars can also drive up to the house from the front gate.

"We measured the gate and made sure that even a Hummer can fit through if need be. We figured this would be useful for the elderly or the ill. That way residents can drive them straight to the house."

An intercom system can be found on each floor and central air-conditioning keeps the villa cool all day long.

A swimming pool can be found in the back along with the outside kitchen and maid's quarters. There is also a driver's room accessed from the right side of the house.
