STORY

Skyfall

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Skyfall is located within a private gated mountain-side estate, about 20 minutes from the Kodaikanal lake. A common-use road leads past two other houses, set well apart, to Skyfall at the end. A concrete sloped driveway leads you to the single-car covered garage and the front of the house has open parking for 1 more car. There is also clear parking for 2-3 cars on the common-use road above.

Upper Bedroom

This bedroom, with an ensuite bathroom, comprises a queen bed, plenty of wardrobe space, portable room heater and a loft that sleeps an additional two young children or one adult. Beautiful views of Perumal Peak are framed by the large vertical windows that face the bed. What better way to wake up than to a wow view!

Lower Bedroom

This bedroom, on the left of the staircase, has a queen bed. Its floor-to-ceiling windows have a lovely view of the lawn, trees and Perumal Peak. Bedside tables and heating included. There is plenty of wardrobe storage and an ensuite bathroom.

Gardenside Bedroom

The lower garden leads to this bedroom, with beautiful twin antique beds joined together to form a double. A large thick carpet warms up the room, along with the portable room heater. This bedroom has a small pantry with a tea/coffee station, along with its own small LED TV with Tata Sky.

A wireless router gives you internet access. The ensuite contemporary-styled bathroom has its own hot water supply. There is a little private sit-out with chairs and a table — your own exclusive space for a morning coffee while you bring in the day.

Two-Level Lawn

There is a two-level lawn for gatherings. One is on the lowest level of the building and is accessible from the driveway via steps or through the lower-level sit-out. A larger upper lawn area is adjacent to the lower sit-out for larger groups. Outdoor furniture, a large garden umbrella and external outdoor speakers are available. The lawn is perfect for bonfires (a bonfire pit is in place) available. A Weber BBQ grill (BYO charcoal) is available in the Storage Room. Firewood available at an extra charge. A common-use toilet is accessible at the top of the driveway for visiting staff.

Dining Area & Bar

The dining area and bar separate the main kitchen from the covered balcony, A rectangular dining table with bench-style seating for six makes for casual, communal dining. Behind the dining table, the flue pipe of the living room Franklin woodstove brings radiating warmth to the dining room when it's lit up. Next to it is a cosy bar cabinet set up to welcome your BYOB and two single-seaters that invite you to an intimate drink.

Open Backyard

This backyard, behind the kitchen, has a long granite-topped table, suitable for sun-drying linen, clothes or kitchen utensils.

Study Nook

This room has art collected from the homeowner’s travel and life in the Orient. An antique wooden bookcase is filled with books on a variety of subjects. In the corner by a large set of glass-paned windows is a flat-topped writing desk and chair, for you to catch up on work.

Upstairs Mud Room

This room has two entrances: one conveniently via the garage (for rainy days) and one external. The mud room has hooks for umbrellas, coats and keys, a shoe cupboard and a little bench to take off and put on your footwear. The foyer leads off to the open-plan kitchen and dining area, a staircase leading down to the lower level, and a passageway to the upper bedroom.

Kitchen

The combined open-plan kitchen, dining area and bar lead to the upper balcony. The main kitchen is a home cook’s dream — large with wraparound counters, a high counter and an island in the centre. Its fully equipped with a microwave, three-gas burner, hob, toaster, oven-grill, UV water purifier, two-bowl washbasin, piped hot water, dishwasher and large refrigerator. There are oodles of storage and cookware, glassware and flatware to cook up almost any meal. A smaller wet kitchen with its own counters, wash basin, 4-burner gas stove and storage racks is designed for the heavier Indian cooking. The villa cook uses this.

Upper Balcony

Large foldable French doors open to the upper balcony and the skyscapes outside. The covered balcony has a 4-seater round table with extra chairs for larger groups. On the open-air extension, there are two low-slung cane chairs for that cup of coffee & book to take in some warm sunshine. A beautiful old Franklin cook stove can heat up your food, bake bread or mini pizzas.

Laundry Room

The powder washbasin and laundry room are next to the dining area. The laundry room has a front-loading washing machine and dryer. An ironing station and steam iron are provided.

Media Room

Settle into the comfortable seating with Wi-Fi, flatscreen 4K Android TV with Netflix and other OTT channels built in. All you must do is log in and catch up on your favourite shows. There is Tata Sky too. For music, there is an audio system with external Bluetooth, and an acoustic guitar for bonfire nights. A Franklin woodstove in the corner will warm up the room instantly, when lit up.

Living Room

Enjoy this room’s comfortable 3-seater sofa, two single-seaters and a rocking chair. Coffee table books on Kodaikanal, antique chests and soft lamps make this a lovely space. There is a nook with a cabinet full of rare old books. A Franklin woodstove really makes the room toasty! French doors lead to a lower sit-out with a picnic table and two benches. Superb views!
