A-frame Duplex

A-frame Duplex

This property is a blend of modern American A-frame architecture with traditional Himalayan aesthetics.

It’s a sprawling 1200 sq ft duplex. There is one bedroom on each floor, with attached bathroom-toilet and dressing areas. Both bedrooms have king-size beds.

The ground floor has a kitchen-diner and living area with an iron fireplace/ Bukhari. Additionally, it has a 25x4ft balcony. The top floor has a spacious terrace and A-frame window with magnificent views.

The Space

This stay is a labor of love designed for homely comfort in the middle of lush green Himalayan mountains. An ‘A’ frame duplex with two rooms on two different levels ensures a comfortable and luxurious stay with your family and friends. Both rooms have separate washrooms, dressing areas, and balconies.

Bathrooms are equipped with hot showers to wash away your blues. The ground floor has a kitchen and a sumptuous dining area. This floor also has the living area around an iron fireplace.

The windows and balconies open to breathtaking views of Panchchuli, Nanda Devi, and Trishul mountain ranges on a day with clear skies. Its striking 180-degree Himalayan views have earned it its name, a Spanish term for a balcony or tower with a viewpoint—an architectural blend of the East and West.

The panoramic vistas of verdant hills around, dotted with quaint village homes, adds magic to your stay even on a rainy day when the mountains are clouded. You can see wisps of curly white clouds rising from the green treetops, sometimes floating like a white sea in the valleys ahead.
