Kunstvolle 6-Zi. Villa, 12m Pool & ummauerter Garten – Layan, nahe Bang Tao

A private house in Layan, built around an art collection. Six bedrooms, a 12 m pool with a sunken lounge, and a walled tropical garden that belongs to you alone.

Villa Mumu is named after my late mother. I am an art advisor, and I built it as the house I would want my own family to stay in.

THE POOL AND GARDEN – 12 x 6 m private pool with a sunken lounge and in-water sunbeds. A separate jacuzzi. Flat walled garden of about 1,300 m², a covered sala for long lunches. Pool and jacuzzi open 24 hours.

THE HOUSE – About 780 m² of living space. Double-height living room open to the pool. Floating stairs, stone and onyx walls, black marble. Works from my own collection: Invader, Hom Nguyen, Jisbar, Kostar, Chloe Kelly Miller. Two fully equipped kitchens, one indoors, one in the BBQ pavilion.
