1-2BR Villa near Melasti

Compare building area with the land you control

The two larger villas have similar building areas but materially different recorded plots. That changes the balance between indoor space, garden, pool deck, access and maintenance. The compact one-bedroom format uses a much smaller building and plot, so it should be compared by function and operating effort rather than by headline price alone.

Request the numbered villa schedule, cadastral plan and dated inventory for the exact home under consideration. Each document should use the same villa code and identify its building, parcel, private areas and access rights.

Location: Kutuh access to Melasti, GWK and Nusa Dua

The recorded address is 55RH+42P, Kutuh, Badung, at approximately -8.808713, 115.174980. The card associates the development with Melasti and the Ungasan side of the Bukit peninsula. It is not a beachfront site: the project database records about 5.8 km to the beach and lists drive estimates of 14 minutes to Melasti Beach, 11 minutes to Green Bowl Beach, 12 minutes to GWK Cultural Park, 20 minutes to the airport, 22 minutes to Nusa Dua and 22 minutes to Uluwatu Temple.

Closer reference points help test everyday convenience. Lawar Plek Bukit is recorded around 170 m away, PONTREN, RA, MI, MTs Al Jabar Bali 200 m, Pura Goa Gong 320 m, Lorong Waktu Coffee Roaster 520 m, Coco Mart Goa Gong 660 m and Alfamart Goa Gong 670 m. Plaza Wisnu is listed at 740 m and Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park at 830 m. Drive the approach at different hours and inspect road width, lighting, gradients, drainage, turning space and taxi access.

Use current villas in Melasti and the broader Melasti property selection to compare route, plot and title rather than relying on the area label alone.

Treat “completed” as permission to inspect, not proof of quality

The project record marks the development completed and confirms that real photographs exist. That lets a buyer inspect the actual villa instead of relying only on renders. Match the built home against the approved drawings, unit schedule, finishes specification and signed sales documents. Measure the building and plot, then confirm that the pool, garden, parking and service areas sit within the promised boundaries.

During inspection, test roof and terrace waterproofing, bathroom falls, drainage after rain, water pressure, hot water, electrical load, air-conditioning, doors, windows, joinery and pool equipment. Check privacy between neighbouring villas, noise from pumps or access roads and the outlook from the selected rooms. The project-level “ocean view” field does not establish an unobstructed view from every villa, so record the actual sightline and any land that could later be developed.

Ask whether housekeeping is optional or mandatory, what the fee includes, who employs the staff, how owner stays are handled and who approves repairs. For a rental plan, build a conservative cash-flow model using verified rates, realistic downtime, management, utilities, taxes, insurance and repair reserves.

Verify the freehold route for the actual buyer

“Freehold” is a listing label, not a complete legal answer. An independent Indonesian lawyer and PPAT/notary should identify the certificate type, registered holder, parcel number and boundaries, and check encumbrances, disputes, access rights, zoning, permits and taxes. The buyer’s nationality, residency and intended use affect which ownership or corporate route may be legally available. Avoid nominee arrangements or any structure that leaves control dependent on an undisclosed side agreement.

Anteya’s explanation of leasehold and freehold in Bali provides background, but the verified title and transaction documents govern. The sale agreement should also allocate furniture, equipment, defects, taxes, closing costs, possession, utilities and handover records.

Is this villa on Melasti Beach?

No. The address is in Kutuh, inland on the Bukit peninsula. The database places the beach about 5.8 km away and gives road-time estimates that should be tested in current traffic.

Which two-bedroom layout is larger?

One has slightly more building area at 176.3 m²; the other has the larger recorded plot at 286 m². The better fit depends on usable rooms, outdoor space, privacy, maintenance and the exact title plan.

What should be checked before reserving a completed villa?

Obtain the title search, buyer-eligibility advice, cadastral and building plans, permits, tax position, inventory, defect inspection, service terms, utilities evidence and a contract naming the exact villa and included assets.
