This theme then, so cleverly, continues inside, with an integrated fish tank, part of which affords views through its water to the lush, tropical greenery outside. The underwater fish tank viewing windows which form part of the wine cellar are also repeated in several other rooms of the house. It all makes for an enticing and magical blend of the elements, experienced in a vibrant domestic hub in a way that few other houses we have seen before manage to achieve.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/southafricatoday.net\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stonewood2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7888\" src=\"https:\/\/southafricatoday.net\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stonewood2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southafricatoday.net\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stonewood2.jpg 600w, https:\/\/southafricatoday.net\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/stonewood2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">What\u2019s more enticing than a large pool with its own water slide, together with ropes, swings and a zip-wire?
