BEAUTIFUL MOORISH STYLE VILLA – MAGNIFICENT COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS

STUNNING SWIMMING POOL (20m x 5m) + STAFF APARTMENT & BARN

VERY LARGE PRIVATE PLOT (40 acres) ~ SUITABLE FOR EQUESTRIAN USE

PLENTIFUL WATER SUPPLY

A unique and majestic Moorish style villa in an elevated location with wonderful far-reaching views across picturesque valleys towards the cork forests and distant mountains of the Serrania de Ronda and Alcornocales Natural Park. Only 15 mins from the magical ‘White Village’ of Gaucin!

This extraordinary property is situated on a very large finca of 40 acres – fully fenced) that is very secure, private and tranquil and, from its prominent position on a private plateau, cannot be overlooked. This carefully chosen and privileged location is in the midst of nature, and would be ideal for equestrian use. The adjacent hills belong to the property and nearby mountain sides are protected land which cannot be built upon.

This architect-designed villa faces south and is very light, airy & spacious with double-height ceiling in the huge living room ~ the whole villa delightfully combines Andalusian charm with authentic Moorish character. The main living accommodation is all on one level, with the exception of two mezzanine areas accessed via spiral staircases from the living area. The villa is finished with an eye for detail, including arched doorways, original tiling and antique wood doors etc.

Access to the property is a short drive along a track from the road between Gaucin & El Colmenar. After driving through an electric gate (shared with other fincas), the track continues up to the villa with its huge & very impressive antique wooden entrance doors.

The Villa:

The antique doors open into a beautiful entrance hall – there is an ensuite guest bedroom on each side of the hall. An archway reveals the magnificent living room that is subdivided by pillars, creating several different living areas. The sitting area has a large open fireplace, the dining area is adjacent to the separate kitchen. There is also a reading/TV area and music area (or study).

The large glazed French doors can be used to create an ‘indoor-outdoor’ living style. They open onto a terrace that has spectacular views across the countryside to the mountains… a perfect spot for alfresco dining and entertaining.

The terrace is also accessible from the spacious country-style kitchen that has a wood-burning stove, an adjacent walk-in pantry (also accessible from the parking area) and plenty of room for a breakfast table.

From the living room, there are three further spacious ensuite bedrooms, all with a wood-burner and fitted wardrobes. Each bedroom also has lovely views, and main bathrooms have under-floor heating and decorative Andalusian tiling. In addition, there are two open plan areas at mezzanine level overlooking the living room, which can be used to provide further bedroom accommodation (or office/study etc).

Exterior:

The villa is surrounded by rustic landscaped gardens containing a variety of beautiful palm trees, cypresses etc.

A large terrace, with covered seating area, connects the main house with the marvellous pool area just below. The extensive swimming pool (20m x 5m) is surrounded by terraces and has a fully retractable roof and can be heated during the winter months. There is a pool house adjacent with shower/changing facilities, and can be used as a gym area.

Surrounding pastureland suitable for grazing (horses, sheep, goats etc) is visible from the villa. There are lots of outdoor activities available in the area, including biking, hiking, horse-riding etc., with an abundance of trails on the doorstep!

Staff/Guest Apartment & Barn (128m2 each)

A short distance from the main house is the guest/staff apartment and barn. It has a large modern high-ceilinged open-plan living space, with a comfortable sitting area, dining area & designer kitchen.

Two air-conditioning units keep the apartment warm in winter and cool in summer, plus there is a wood-burning stove in the main living space.
