Blessed by the nearby hot springs of the Qianshan Mountain, Villa Xianning stands tall in the midst of National Forest Park, rising well above the surrounding trees, averaging 15 meters, offering spectacular view of the Luanhe River at the foot of the Mountain. The elevated villa is supported by the central core as well as the perimeter columns that echo with the surrounding bamboo forest. Internally, rooms are organized around the central core / vertical circulation over two main levels with the smaller, more private rooms such as bedrooms, private office on the lower level and the larger, more public functions such as living room, conference room, as well as a generously sized outdoor terrace on the upper level.
