OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS!!! PRICED TO SELL!!!!

This one-acre parcel (4,046 sq.m.) sits at 1100 feet elevation, and is just off the main road
to the top of Tapochao, Saipan’s highest mountain.

The main house has 2,100 square feet of inside living space consisting of one bedroom,
one and a half baths, a den and entry, and a great room containing the living /dining/
kitchen area. Just across the outdoor patio space lies a separate living unit with two
bedrooms, a living room, small kitchen and a bar, and a natural stone-tiled bath. Adjacent
to the main carport is a 600 square-foot two-car garage, with automatic garage door
openers and entrances to the kitchen and to the outside back stairway. The two living
areas are connected on the East side by a curved, stone-faced and glass block entry/
storage area with custom etched French doors opening onto the sweeping balconies and
deck spaces. Near this entry is a pool room, with the pump systems and more storage for
maintenance items and outdoor toys. This pool has its own solar panel directly connected
to a special direct current pump system; there is no need for outside power here but there
is a backup pump to be used when vacuuming the pool.

The river pebble deck and pool connect the two units and feature a variety of plantings,
several seating and eating areas including a long, built-in bench for sitting and watching
the pool and/or the sunset. Two freeform triangular teal sails serve to shade the center
area, over the 15,000 gallon custom-built 45-foot long pool finished in ombre dark blue
ceramic tiles, three in-pool lights, and two mosaic green sea turtles swimming toward
the deep end. The West side of the pool needs no railing, so this ensures a clear view of
glorious sunsets reflected in the pool. A large deck with room for dining and entertaining
is off the living room of the second unit. A small bar is built into the area above the pool
and deck; matching custom etched French doors open from the main house entrance area
to the deck. The stainless railing system utilizes cables that do not to block the expansive
view. And off the master bedroom is a wider deck area for more private lounging and
enjoyment of the view. The deck cantilevers out by the dining room in order to hold
a long natural ironwood table and bench, a great place to watch the evening or night
at Garapan. West-facing windows are eight feet high, in groups of four (with sliding
glass doors), giving the appearance of a window wall. All windows are constructed of
commercial grade aluminum frames with 3/8 inch laminated glass to eliminate the need
for typhoon shutters. Shades keep afternoon sun out, and roll up to practically disappear
the rest of the time. Stairways from the pool area, and from the master bedroom, lead
down to the lower plantation on the West side. Coffee, pineapples, betelnut, and other
crops as well as ornamental plants grow along these slopes.
