About this listing
First Impressions of No 79 Leyn Baan Street
The entrance hall of No 79 Leyn Baan Street leads you to the open plan dining and living space. A turquoise pathway divides the area. An open courtyard provides natural ventilation.
The dining area houses six seater a dining table as well as a bureau. A super comfortable Javanese sofa and a turquoise armchair furnish the lounge area. Enjoy digital television or DVDs while relaxing on the sofa or the armchair. A cream wooden bookcase houses a large DVD library.
A small wooden door opens into the two bedded bunk room for those with little folk. Further, it doubles as aย study featuring a vintage leather topped desk. The antique desk is beneath the shuttered window overlooking the pond and courtyard.
A sprinkle of turquoise and various shades of blue touch every room. The entrance hall greets you with a large blue circular light shade. Consequently it draws your eye to the stained glass mantel above the three doors.
The first door opens into the large bathroom. It has a cream stone bath/shower, and Victorian-style WC. Opposite the bathroom is the blue bedroom. A four poster bed fitted with a mosquito net style this air conditioned room. Lastly, there is a window opens directly to the front verandah.
The Courtyards
Relax beside the ornamental pool stocked with tropical fish in the middle of the courtyard. Indonesian and Sri Lankan antiques are scattered around the courtyard. Finally, large wooden doors at the end of the pond open out into a stone tiled tropical garden.
Leading from the inner courtyard is the beautiful cream stone kitchen. The kitchen has everything you need to whip up culinary delights. In contrast to an antique sideboard is a white butler sink. Wooden doors open out to the solid concrete table with wooden benches and Union Jack cushions. The roof terrace shelters the downstairs outside living space. Furthermore, it extends the full width of the rear of the house.
The Rooftop Terrace
Steps to the left of the garden lead up to the blue stoned roof terrace. Firstly, enjoy the ocean view over the Old Fort Ramparts from the roofย terrace. Secondly, you will even have a glimpse of the Fort’s picturesque lighthouse. A marble-topped breakfast table and turquoise retro chairs sit under a tiled ambalama. This is most certainly the ultimate morning coffee and people watching spot. Why not indulge in sun worship on sun lounges screened by large turquoise pots plants?
The split-level master suite can be accessed from the roof terrace or pond entrance. First of all, a sunken stone bath/shower downstairs, while the shabby-chic bedroom is upstairs. A wooden blue staircase connects the bathroom to the bedroom.
Even more impressive is the master’s sleigh bed which overlooks the rooftop terrace and the ramparts beyond. Two sets of wooden double doors lead onto the quaint sheltered wooden balcony. Below the balcony is the pond courtyard. Two further shuttered windows allow natural light to flood this charming abode with light. A master through pure beauty.
Therefore, when you eventually leave No 79 Leyn Baan Street, you will feel honoured because you were welcomed into this family home into the heart of Galle Fort.
