Named Tiromoana (house over water), it boasts stunning views over the Pacific Ocean from an elevated 1.8-hectare site in Winifred Street, Okitu. 'Echoes of renowned US architect Frank Lloyd Wright have been infused with the Balinese style pavilions to create unrivalled living spaces, along with three bedrooms and two bathrooms,' a Bayleys spokeswoman said.
