Situation
The villa is situated just outside and above Algarrobo village and enjoys commanding views over the coast to the Mediterranean and also lovely mountain views. Access is easy along tarmac and concrete roads and it only takes a couple of minutes to drive into the village or down to the coast. It is a quiet and private spot with no neighbours close by or overlooking the property.
Outside space
Gates open into the drive which splits into two, one leading to a parking area by the main part of the house and the other leading down to the garage.
The gardens that surround this property are a real delight. Extending over a huge area, they have been terraced and provided with a network of paths so that you can easily meander around the land and appreciate the wealth of planting that makes this such a special spot. There are literally hundreds of well established trees and shrubs including a range of fruit trees, bougainvilleas, palms, cacti, succulents of every kind and many more. The land is irrigated and very easy to care for.
In addition, the house has extensive terraces, mainly in front of the house with covered and open areas for sun and shade. Steps at the side of the house lead down to the pool which is in a sheltered spot with terraces around it.
Inside space
This is a very spacious property and the feeling of space is enhanced by the open plan layout of the main living and dining areas. The accommodation is arranged as follows:
- entrance into a large L-shaped hallway, part of which (2.9m x 1.5m approx) is currently used as an office and part as a dining hall (5m x 2.4m approx)
- an arch on the left opens into the living room which has an open fireplace
- the fully fitted kitchen is also open plan and is separated from the dining hall by a long granite breakfast bar. There are sliding doors from the kitchen to a patio at the side of the house.
- a utility room (2.9m x2.5m) off the kitchen is fitted with units and a sink and has space for a range of appliances
- beyond the dining hall you will find the master bedroom (4.2m x 3.9m) which has its own dressing room (1.7m x 2.6m) and ensuite bathroom (2.5m x 2.4m)
- two further bedrooms (4.4m x4.4m and 4.3m x 2.8m) and a family bathroom (3.3m x 2.4m)
- it is worth noting that there is an enormous amount of storage space in this property with ranges of fitted wardrobes in all the bedrooms, the dressing room and the hall.
