THIS massive five-bedroom home in Yankin township strikes a comfortable blend between grandeur and family living with imposing pillars and a huge, towering balcony offset by an attractive yard of palms, lawn and decorative paving.

The luxury and privacy offered come with a whopping K900-million price tag, however, reflecting the rare nature of the one-and-a-half-year-old property.

Twelve-foot-high ceilings and large rooms make the house ideal for big families, with living rooms on each floor and a dedicated TV room upstairs ensuring space for everyone. A spiral staircase from the TV room leads to three rooms on the third floor, possibly suitable for storage, and the house’s largest, sun-soaked balcony.

Each of the bedrooms has its own bathroom attached, with one of the rooms also containing a spa bath for one.

A spacious, open-plan kitchen on the ground floor incorporates a dining area and, interestingly, an outdoors cooking space also. Just outside the back door is the gas stove; great for preparing smelly feasts, less great in a thunder storm.

The 14,300-square-foot compound has three exits – two driveways leading to Moe Kaung Street and one opening onto Botaryone Street – and garaging for two cars.

Above the garage are two single rooms, a bathroom and a toilet designed as staff quarters. These rooms are accessed externally and not through the main house.

The owner, who says he is moving abroad, can provide furniture through negotiation.

A 45 KVA generator and 13 air conditioners are included in the sale.
