Upstairs, four oversized bedroom suites provide a superior level of accommodation with fireplaces and balconies. Detached for maximum privacy, the guest house reveals a gym and spa, while fragrant roses and an orchard, abundant with orange, lemon, lime, fig and avocado trees, in addition to organic vegetables, provides farm-to-table delights fresh from the garden year-round. An 11-car garage with workshop and television retreat is the ultimate car-enthusiast haven.
