Welcome to Villa La Toca, a state of the art modern villa with a wrap around terrace and amazing panoramic views. Placed in a prime location within a private gated community, the impeccable home boasts a 1,941 square metre tree shrouded plot with a 529 square metre build area. The terraces stretch a massive 390 square metres around the house, where they support lawned gardens, a curvaceous 59 square metre swimming pool, and a stepped sun deck that illuminates at night. The interior of the enviable five bedroom home is designed to enhance the supply of natural daylight, and to impress with stylish modern simplicity.
A grand illuminated staircase descends around the outer walls of the house, dipping down between trees toward the impressive sweeping terraces.
Glass balustrades disappear around the edge of the property, where a lawned garden and pool deck rush up to the edges, teetering on the brink of a sheer fall.
The modern home exterior is alive with light. Golden glow leaks from the interiors, burns bright lines down every external step, and uplights beautiful palm trees and shrubs.
An outdoor conversation pit cuts a triangle out of the angular upper deck.
Another external staircase leads down onto a grassed terrace with a charming sitting spot by a pond.
A two tier pool design allows the main body of water to be set back from the edge, whilst the watery border runs tight to the limit of the main terrace.
Stairs that link the main living floor of the house with the pool terrace have been designed to accommodate multiple sunloungers.
By night, these staircase rest spots become outdoor party seating.
White concrete slabs are interlaced with black treads to build a striking high contrast design.
The black and white colour theme continues on the inside of the house too. Punchy black and white cushions sharpen a plain white sofa. A modern fireplace flickers from within a jet black chimney breast.
A rustic wood coffee table provides a moment of natural beauty in the crisp contemporary scheme.
Likewise in the dining room, a live edge wooden table is teamed with a set of black and white dining chairs. A modern dining room chandelier illuminates stunning cutouts in the table's top.
On a raised floor behind the formal dining room, a unique kitchen island cuts an angular black silhouette. A modern fruit bowl, shaped like a hand, punctuates the black countertop with a single moment of pure white.
Kitchen pendant lights are clustered over the island for larger effect.
A golden room divider separates the kitchen from the hallway and interior stairwell.
Another cluster of edison bulbs cascade down the ethereal stairwell.
Green accents lift the basement's grey lounge space, drawing inspiration from the garden view outside of its patio doors. Outdoor artwork provides a visual stop.
The green accented lounge is part of a games room, with a unique pool table and a card table.
White decor accentuates the natural light coming into the master bedroom suite. A white bed and matching end of bed bench are pushed up against a wall of mirrors that reflect the sun drenched view.
A bank of built-in closets make a stark black accent in the room, along with black window frames and a wall mounted faux horse head.
The bedroom leads straight into an open plan ensuite bathroom design…
… And a generously sized walk in closet off to the left hand side.
A floating black double sink bathroom vanity is enriched with copper accents. A freestanding tub brings the black and copper elements to the other side.
Including the master, there are three bedrooms on the first floor, and a further two bedrooms down in the basement. This one is a sumptuous balance of light caramel and jet black, all under the spotlight of extraordinary bedroom pendant lights and a chic floor lamp.
Each bedroom benefits from attached outdoor space.
Outdoor seating extends the basement games room.
A barbeque area with an outdoor dining set is laid out on the pool terrace to round off the entertaining area.
Up on the first floor, the master bedroom's balcony overlooks the main terrace below. A romantic lounge area with two outdoor chairs neighbours the cosy conversation pit.
The view from the outdoor dining table sees this architectural masterpiece standing like a small modern village that ambles up the hillside.
Planters decorate the modern home exterior.
All the way down at the bottom of the property, a round patio echoes the circular shape of the man-made pond.
Blue skies, blue swimming pool, and blue scatter cushions on the outdoor sofas.
Even the basement rooms get a sunny outlook.
A unique wine storage wall is backlit to showcase the best of the bottles, with others stashed in a wooden rack below. A display case boasts the most exquisite selection.
Dimmed lights, fresh rolled towels and copious amounts of candles create a spa vibe.
A huge house sign announces the presence of La Toca 10.
First floor plan, featuring master bedroom suite with luxury ensuite bathroom and large walk in closet, plus huge terrace with conversation pit. We can also see the two car parking garage on this level.
Ground floor plan, with main living room, formal dining room and unique kitchen design.

Uproxx Travel expands the mind, broadens your palette ( and your palate ), opens your worldview and, for many, drains your wallet . But travel doesn’t have to be expensive. In fact, it can often be a more enriching experience to show up with a budget, because it means you look more closely at the places you spend cash, you talk more with the people around you, and step outside the boundaries of a cruise ship or an “all-inclusive” resort. If you want to get out more out of travel, or just need to keep a close eye on what you’re spending, we’ve gathered a set of apps that will help you pack, travel, eat, and explore while keeping your budget manageable ( and helping you manage your budget ). Some are about saving money directly, while others allow you to circumvent costs like cabs or forgetting something important.

Today, 790 million people — 11 percent of the world's population — live without access to clean water. Two years ago, XPrize , an international nonprofit organization, announced a global competition enticing innovators to find a sustainable and affordable way to bring potable water to those who aren't privileged enough to have it now. Skeptics told the competition organizers that it was impossible. Nearly 100 submissions later, and XPrize found precisely what they were looking for — entrepreneurs who could design a minimalistic device that could reliably extract 2,000 liters of water from the atmosphere per day for no more than two cents per liter all using 100 percent renewable energy.
