On three acres of land with a commanding view of the Caribbean Sea, lush green mountains and golf course, Bumper's Nest was designed by distinguished architect Kasimir Korybut. Completed in 1995, it one of the newest and most glamorous homes at the Tryall Club. Here is an extraordinary private home with simply the best of everything.
The central atrium is like a park in Provence ... a fanciful fountain and water garden framed by pink bougainvillea and coffee roses. Interiors are enriched by fine art, Italian tiles, decorative verdigris, hand-painted stone walls and natural cut stone floors.
From the Great Room, 18 French doors open to 1,400 square feet of furnished verandahs. Deep, comfortable cushions cover sofas, chairs, chaises and a wonderful cedar swing. The view is spectacular day and night. Just beyond the verandah, the private pool spans the front of the house. Adjacent to the pool are the outdoor wet bar and shower, powder room, and private putting green and practice tee.
The handsome Family Room opens on two sides to the atrium and garden. A 27' television on Direct TV system provides 950 channels (movies, HBO, free Pay Per View, sports, etc.), VCR, sound system, and library of books and movies invite days and evenings of entertainment. A few steps away are the powder room and indoor wet bar and fridge stocked with soft drinks and juices. Child-friendly, Bumper's Nest provides children's videos, crib and high chair.
An extensive Bose speaker system creates surround-sound inside and out. Recessed speakers in each bedroom have individual volume controls. The system can operate throughout the villa and pool area ... or be limited to specific areas.
