The estate
Twelve hundred square metres of interior. Eight thousand square metres of grounds. One house that keeps its own weather — well, generator, battery bank, triple glazing, underfloor heat.
Beit Bottarga rests above the valley of Yafour, south-west of Damascus. Three storeys, five bedrooms, nine bathrooms, and beneath them an entire entertainment floor with its own garden entrance — cinema, private nightclub, wet bar, lounge.
A nine-metre atrium turns beneath an elliptical skylight. A piano room opens onto a brass-detailed sitting area. A chef’s kitchen passes through to a dining table for twelve, three-sided in natural light.
