Country House in Gaucin

Posted on March 14th, 2011 in Accommodation in Spain,Gaucin by editor

 

This exclusive retreat is situated on a fully fenced plot of 96,000 sq metres at the edge of the Ronda mountains and has south facing views across to the Mediterranean. The four bedroom finca has been extensively renovated and refitted by the present owner to create a truly unique home combining the finest elements of rustic Spain with the latest home comforts.

Designed for modern living, the finca is arranged on one floor, with differing levels to add charm and to accentuate key features and areas. The elevated position of the property offers breathtaking views of the Mediterranean and the coast of Africa, which can be particularly enjoyed from the mirador. Mirador is a Spanish term for a terrace constructed due to the stunning views that can be enjoyed from it.

The master bedroom is housed in the main tower and features a large en-suite bathroom and views down the valley to the coast. A further three en-suite bedrooms are located within the house. There is a separate fully self-contained granny or staff casita and an additional small gate house.

The interior of this property is packed with features to make life in the campo as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Satellite television is installed, as is a high speed internet connection. If, however, you crave seclusion, then the stone walled herb garden offers a fragrant sanctuary where the sweet smells of the herbs and flowers mix with the bubbling fountain to create a quintessential Andaluz experience.

The spectacular terraced areas allow you to live the outdoor lifestyle to the full. The terraced dining area makes a very elegant entertaining space. Whilst the magnificent Mirador allows you to sit in comfort and contemplate the rolling hills that lie just beyond the outdoor pool and bar area. For the days when the outdoor pool can’t be used, there is a sumptuous indoor spa area with Jacuzzi, heated swimming pool and sauna.

This is a unique home has a real WOW Factor. Lovingly remodelled and sympathetically decorated, it offers the rare chance to buy a completed luxury home near the picturesque village of Gaucín. From the indoor Spa to the authentic mirador, it really has to be seen to be believed.

Country House in Gaucin

Posted on March 14th, 2011 in Accommodation in Spain,Gaucin by editor

 

This truly magnificent country home is set in eight hectares of rolling farmland with wonderful views. It is about 5 minutes from the picturesque white village of Gaucin, 45 minutes from Gibraltar airport and less to the golf resort of Sotogrande. The quality of the design, the buildings, the furniture and fittings is of the very highest standard.

Entered from a typical Andalucian courtyard the main house contains five en-suite bedrooms. The large entrance hall leads out to an open air covered dining terrace and other terraces looking over the surrounding countryside. The sitting room gives access to the library and dining room. There is a very large fully equipped kitchen with its own dining area, a utility room and drying patio. Stairs lead down to the TV/ music room.

With its own separate entrance, there are staff or guest quarters of two en-suite bathrooms, a dressing room, kitchen and living room.

The land has little in the way of formal gardens being mainly planted with shrubs and trees dotted about.  The bulk of the land is being used and maintained by a local farmer.

This is a wonderful home in a wonderful situation!
