The combination of the traditional plantation type houses native to Indonesia and Ross Franklins family home, the Black and White House, brings a time-honoured yet contemporarily finished home, surpassing most expectations! A white colour scheme has been adopted throughout the house, on the walls, floors and furniture and contrasts beautifully against the black and brown wooden finishes that mix within the interior and exterior of the villa. The villa has been designed with an open plan layout and on the ground floor, which means ample room to move and gather! The beautiful dining table is big enough to host large families and after delicious meals, a seating area with comfy sofas sits directly behind the table, so enjoy intimate talks by the outdoor fish pool as your food digests! For moments in the house together after days of fun, unwind in the living area on the ground floor. Two of the six double bedrooms are situated on the ground floor and come with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning! Upstairs Dharma House continues its brilliance! A terrace wraps around the upper level, so the two air-conditioned, en-suite bedrooms on this floor benefit from balconies with views of the pool and beautiful outdoor area. Another living area can be found on this floor with another television! The outdoor area will allow you to fully appreciate the luxury that surrounds you in Dharma House. Walking from the dining table and through the double doors across the ground floor which open up to a beautiful veranda! Enjoy, complimentary breakfast every day provided by the villas chef on the outdoor tables and seating by the pool! The pool itself, as with the rest of the house, is huge and superiorly designed but if you dont want to get in, sun-loungers, parasols and cosy furnishings have been placed all over the exterior so you can truly kick-back and get into your zen mode! The last two of the six bedrooms in this villa can be found here. Massive and air-conditioned, the en-suite bathrooms for each room have been expertly designed to be a half inside and outdoor bath and have open access between each other! #### Location Bali is often described as one of the more precious islands that collectively make up the country of Indonesia.
