The Bachelor of Newcrest
by Meeshelby

Season 1 ~ Episode 1
Welcome to the Mansion: Tour Part 1


Our Bachelor, Lance Curtis, has moved into the Bachelor Mansion and is quite anxious to show us around! This mansion is quite large and spacious, including a lounge/bar, gym/computer room, 2 kitchens, a large formal dining room, 3 casual living rooms, a formal sitting room, 3 full bathrooms and at least 7 bedrooms, although we sort of lost count. The grounds include a BBQ patio, a formal gazebo, a pool and gardens. Let's have a look!



The first thing you see when you enter the front gates is the large fountain surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Each of the four corners of the fountain are adorned with a bird bath, great for bird watching!



To the left of the entry, is a raised gazebo with a formal, romantic sitting area, complete with a fireplace for chilly nights.



To the right, and attached to the one end of the house, is a more casual outdoor dining area with a BBQ and bar.



Beside the BBQ area is a large, open air formal sitting area. This is where the more formal gatherings with our Bachelor and the women will take place. More photos inside this area will be shown later in this episode.



In the center front of the house, on the first floor is a long casual living area. Two smaller living rooms are connected by a hallway. All are open to the outside.



On the left of the property, between the formal sitting gazebo and the house, is a swimming pool.


And behind the pool, on the left side of the mansion is the lounge/bar for casual parties and fun evenings. Let's continue by looking at how this is decorated.




This lounge is an excellent spot for the women and Lance to hang out after a busy day. Great for relaxation and casual conversation, it gains a romantic vibe after the sun goes down and the low lights come up.


From this lounge, you can walk directly into the one living room that is connected by the long hallway. Here are some shots of this whole area.










These living areas allow for smaller groups and more private conversation.


From the other living area, we enter back into the formal meeting room.




And that is where we will end our tour for this first episode! There are already many photos to browse through. Next we will show the inside of the mansion. See you next episode!!
