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.
For centuries , humans have used fish oils, orally or topically, to treat a wide array of ailments, from aches and pains to rickets and gout. The popularity of this supplement has shifted over the years, as have its primary uses. But over the past couple of decades, the hype around fish oil has arguably reached an all-time high. According to National Institutes of Health statistics , in 2012, at least 18.8 million Americans used about $1.3 billion dollars worth of fish oil, making it the third most widely used supplement in the nation. (Sales reportedly flattened out at about that level around 2013.) Today, many use it because they believe it will broadly help their heart health , but others hold that fish oil can help with renal health, bone, and joint conditions, cognitive functions and mental wellness, and any number of other conditions. But is fish oil really as good for you as millions of Americans believe it is? Who should be taking it and when? We dove into the research and

SEE ALSO: James Corden tests out gymnastics class for his son and is instantly showed up by children "I don't know whether to be proud or embarrassed that my 5 year old son knows this," Rohleder wrote. "Julian drew a family portrait. I said 'What's that red bit on me?' And he replied, real casual, 'That's your period.'" Well, at least he knows. To give further context, Rohleder revealed she had pulmonary embolism in October 2016, and was put on blood thinning treatment which makes her periods "very, very bad," she explained to the Daily Mail .
