Okay, Woody's house's... his kingdoms! They really are spectacular, but I'll start here with the most humble house with it's most humble side showing. It's a classic villa. It's started at about half the width and Woody expanded east. The final colors of the outside of the building will be the top band of orange and a sunshine yellow.
Yes, the outsides humble, and has very little yard. But Woody's done pretty well with the little space he has. Here is the front yard:
Upstairs kitchen (one of two)
Balcony on the far side of the house. This is really a walk way with little use, but it looks cool!
Woody's back yard...
Now we turn to house number two which is very much under construction. It's on the far side of the lake from Woody's village house. There are no roads and it can only be reached by a very circuitous walk (maybe 5 miles), or a paddle across the lake. It's a major number of steps-- maybe 1000 up to the house from the lake. The path in parts has leaches. The first I'd ever seen. They look like little inch worms. Both mom and Woody picked off a few leaches after our visit.
Here's the top of the stairs and the entrance to Woody's domain... looks like a villa in tuscany no?
It may look like Tuscany, but California will be on tap as this house will mostly sheathed in glass...yes, glass! Any exposed walls will be plastered
Woody's spiral staircase is pretty amazing. Will it stand an earth quake? This is a very active earthquake and landslide area. Note one of Woody's two min-pins.
This is where the video is killer, but this house has 270 degree views over the lake. What you can't see in the background due to haze is the white topped Annapurna range-- They jut way above the hills on clear days. This is the view to the north from Woody's living room.

That's all for now!

Woody's house has an amazing number of arches-- in fact more than 32 arches. Here's a look through from the back of the house towards the front entrance. Notice the marble walls, and Wody's trademark, lots of glass...
From the same spot looking back out over the lake and back terrace. The house has three kitchens and baths so it can be used as a single family or a three unit. This is the downstairs kitchen. A bedroom shares the terrace to the right.

View from the upstairs bedroom:
Looking from the upstairs dining room through to the back of the house. There are also several circles in the house:

A view of the house approaching on the lake. I have some fantastic video footage, but it's too big to upload.
