The key facts
Who owns whatLeasehold · 22 yrs left
Leasehold (Hak Sewa). You rent the property from the owner for a fixed number of years, agreed with a notary. Foreigners can hold a leasehold directly. When the lease ends, the property goes back to the owner unless you extend. An extension is only a right if it's written in the contract (with its price or how the price is set); it's never automatic. Check the years left and that clause. The value usually drops as the years run down.
This is general information, not legal advice. Check the title and the contract with an independent notary (PPAT) before paying anything.

Questions to ask before you buy
- Can I see the land certificate (SHM, HGB or the lease deed)? Is it in the seller's name?
- How many years are left, is the lease registered with a notary, and is an extension written in the contract? At what price?
- What zone is the land in (for example yellow or pink), and does it allow a villa or renting it out?
- Is there a building permit (PBG, formerly IMB)? A certificate that the building is fit to use (SLF)?
- Are the land and building taxes (PBB) paid? Any debts, disputes or family claims on the land?
- Who pays the notary fees and the transfer taxes?
- Is it rented now? Will that contract continue after the sale?
Ask these in writing and keep the answers. An independent notary can check the title for you.

Located in the lush and peaceful setting of Sayan — Ubud’s most exclusive riverside neighborhood and home to some of Bali’s premier luxury resorts — this remarkable 2-bedroom villa is truly unique on the market. What distinguishes this property immediately is its vibrant artistic spirit: vivid, original paintings decorate the walls throughout the home, bringing color, personality, and a distinct creative energy that perfectly complements Ubud’s internationally acclaimed arts scene. The architecture is sleek and modern, showcasing a traditional Balinese tiled roof, clean white rendered walls, and floor-to-ceiling black-framed glass doors that open wide onto the pool terrace — a design that allows the artwork and garden to take center stage. For buyers seeking a home with authentic character and a strong visual presence, this villa is a rare and exciting opportunity in one of Bali’s most desirable locations.
Upon entering, the interiors impress with their bright, open ambiance. The living room features slatted timber ceilings, a large modular white sofa, and a jute rug that adds natural warmth — all anchored by a striking large-scale artwork with bold orange, yellow, and gold tones that dominates the space. The dining area echoes this vibrant energy with a solid hardwood table, curved upholstered chairs, and another captivating painting that elevates every meal into a special event. The bedroom continues the artistic theme with a warm timber bed frame, layered neutral fabrics, and a stunning portrait set within a softly arched niche above the bed — a detail both surprising and unforgettable. Each interior space in this villa is designed with both function and feeling in mind.
Outside, the garden and pool area provide a serene tropical retreat. The generously sized private pool is bordered by rich timber decking and surrounded by oversized bean bag loungers, teak sunbeds, and lush tropical plants that guarantee complete privacy. A hanging egg chair nestled in a green garden corner adds a playful, resort-style element, while the carefully maintained mix of palms, flowering shrubs, and tropical grasses creates a multi-layered living backdrop that shifts with the changing light throughout the day. The outdoor environment is relaxed, secluded, and effortlessly elegant — perfectly matching the Sayan lifestyle of slow mornings, long lunches, and golden evenings by the pool. With its distinctive design, prime location, and strong appeal to the growing market of art-focused, experience-driven buyers and renters, this villa offers an outstanding investment prospect in Central Ubud. Properties of this caliber and character in Sayan are extremely rare — this one warrants your full consideration.
