Twin Palms
Property Description
The Tryall Club requires all villa and condo guests to become members during their stay via a Temporary Membership Fee of US$160 (plus a 15% service charge). Children between the ages of 13 and 15 pay at a discounted rate of 50% (plus a 15% service charge). Guests can also pay per day, US$32 (plus a 15% service charge), for guests ages 16 and older who stay for one to four days. This can be either prepaid or upon arrival at the Club. For children 12 years of age and younger, our Temporary Memberships are complimentary. Surrounded by ten acres of rolling, manicured lawns and expertly landscaped gardens that contain many specimen trees, Twin Palms commands a strategic position on Barnes Hill with views that take in sixty miles of varying vistas including the ocean. The house is built on one level and the Great House influence is punctuated with accents of Rome through the graceful columns and shaded courtyards and here and there, subtle hints of a Moroccan palace. There is a seamless flow to this house that enables the breeze to constantly waft through; lofty rooms with casket ceilings enhance the sense of space; calming shades of blue, coral, and splashes of red create a restful and timeless ambiance and there is the distinct awareness of the outside being brought in from wherever you look. It is the details and attention to detail that so stimulate the senses and enlighten the eyes at Twin Palms such as the large luminescent crystal ball in the central courtyard, the exceptionally fine mahogany scallop shell-backed dining chairs made by a Jamaican master carpenter, the smoothness of the tactile cooling polished stone and the mysteriousness of suspended hand-beaten lanterns. There are seven bedrooms to choose from that are contained in three suites and approached along a columned covered walkway that leads off from the central courtyard. This clever and inspired design facilitates complete privacy, enabling families or friends to adjourn to their own space. The primary suite is entered through double half-glazed doors at the far end of the walkway that opens to a centrally positioned sitting room. To one side there is a primary bedroom and two further bedrooms on the other side. Each has a king four-poster bed and a lavish en suite bathroom. The primary bathroom is notable for the large sunken circular bathtub positioned to take in the views outside as well as the adjacent work-out room. Two of the bedrooms, including the primary, are painted in subtle shades of powder blue and white, which project the highly polished mahogany furniture to full advantage. The third bedroom has a deep coral hue that is both flattering and timeless. On either side of the walkway are two suites, one facing north and the other south, each with two bedrooms. The entrance to each leads into a sitting room with a bedroom on either side. One bedroom in each suite has a king bed, and the second bedroom has two double beds. The en suite bathrooms are of an exceptional standard and outside the sitting room of each suite is a private-covered veranda furnished with a sofa and chairs. This is a house that is designed for entertaining, be it on a grand or an intimate scale. The straight lines and elegant enfilade style are naturally conducive to the flow of people and there are many stylish areas where one can retreat to or congregate for private conversation, a game of backgammon, or a rubber of bridge. Standing on the veranda that overlooks the seven multi-tiered pools and far-reaching views beyond, it is easy to imagine turning around and seeing Ava Gardner and Joan Crawford, Dior-clad, Martini in one hand, Sobranie cigarette in the other, corks popping from bottles of Krug, the rattle of ice in shakers and the tinkle of laughter all about. The veranda is the centerpiece of the living space at Twin Palms, offering space to sit, a table at which to dine, a bar to sit at, and a pool deck for sunning. The seven multi-tiered pools are centered by a sixty-foot infinity-edge lap pool, with a children's wading pool and whirlpools on either side. Within the veranda are a series of rooms, both formal and informal. The pale blue and white drawing room has open architraves to both sides and the front; it is elegantly furnished with deep upholstered sofas and a fine Oriental lacquer cabinet. The dining room is anchored by a handsome mahogany dining table that was made locally using an exceptional length of deep mahogany that is rarely found today. From the ceiling hang three glittering chandeliers hand blown on the island of Murano in Venice and the Boiserie walls are lined with silk Chinese wallpaper, making the room reminiscent of the peak of eighteenth-century style and elegance. Close by is the palm court and a secluded fire pit, which is strategically placed to capture optimum views of the sunsets for which the parish of Hanover is so renowned. For those who from time to time need to catch up with the international news or watch a game of sport, the media room has a large TV and children have their own games room to retire to with table tennis, Foosball, TV and two seating platforms upon which to read.
