Alize is a spacious, well designed home, perfect for year-round living or vacations, the lower level is a self-contained apartment, for additional living space, rental income or office space/artist's studio.
Situated in La Pompe, on a hill 140 feet above the sea, it has fantastic views across the bay to St Hilaire Point, and across the sea where the outlying islands of Baliceaux and Battowia are on the horizon. The bay is shallow and has cross currents, the changing pattern of waves and bright reef colours are fascinating to watch, the full moon reflecting on the sea is also very beautiful.
The house was designed for casual indoor/outdoor living, Alize is easy to maintain, the interior has light coloured finishes to create a calm, relaxing atmosphere, with the added benefit that there are no dark corners for insects to hide in.
Facing east, the house enjoys fresh trade winds and morning sunshine, while later in the day the roof is shaded, keeping the interior cool during the afternoon. Large sliding doors bring the outside in, and high beamed ceilings help air circulation.
