Famous author's house for sale in candidasa

Land values in this street have increased by more than 500% in the last 7 years due to a number of expats choosing to build very tasteful homes here.

This house, designed and built by international bestselling Feng Shui author, Karen Kingston, has been her primary residence since 2002. She and her husband are now leaving Bali to start a new life in the West. The house is therefore available for immediate sale, at a bargain price, with many extra included.

Taken from the top of a coconut tree located just behind the back wall of the property, this photo shows the front two-thirds of the plot of land. The front gate opens to Puri Bagus Road (Jalan Puri Bagus), beyond that you can see a small hotel called Puri Pudak, then a stretch of ocean and Nusa Penida, a small island off the coast of Bali.

Puri Bagus (shown on the Google Earth image to the right) is a well maintained beachfront hotel just a 3 minute walk away, and a very convenient place for friends to stay when visiting. There are also a number of other hotels and restaurants close by.

The house was built in 2001, constructed of first class building materials with no expense spared. It is very well maintained and in turnkey condition for a new owner.

It's located in a very safe area of Bali. Incidences of theft or crime are extremely rare. The pace of life is very relaxed, and the local people are very welcoming and friendly.

The house has marble floors throughout, except for the kitchen and second bedroom (currently used as a meditation room), which are tiled. The two bathrooms have marble walls and floors.

The front terrace and hallway feature marble mosaics and ample marble terraces surround the house on three sides.

Measuring 10m x 5m, there is a foundation at the rear of the house suitable for building a guest cottage. It could also be excavated to create a swimming pool or removed to create space for a garden feature.
