AX1226 – Casa Udo, country house with panoramic sea views, Cajiz/Iznate area

3/4 bed main house – 1 bed apartment – 7763m2 plot – breathtaking, panoramic sea views to south and mountain views to north

A very unique property, in a superb location in terms of the views, and yet just minutes from the village of Iznate and within 10/15 minutes of the coast.  RESERVED

This property was built in 2005 in one of the best locations in the area.  Sitting on a ridge, the property enjoys stunning 180º views of the coast and sea to the South, and to the North and West, wonderful inland, mountain views.

Access is good, with a steep concreted country lane leading to the property.  There are other houses dotted around, but all are within a reasonable distance, meaning total privacy and total peace.

Anyone wishing to buy it will want to finished off the project with details such as one ofthe bathrooms, and perhaps a slight change of layout on the lower floor of the main house.

The main house
A gated entrance leads into the gardens and an area that could be used for parking, which would need clearing.  The huge front door of the main house leads into a hallway harea which is open plan with the main living/dining/kitchen area (41.6m2, or 5.5 x 8m).  To the right of the front door is a large bathroom (3.2 x 2m) which is unfinished, but needs very little investment to complete, with a beautiful, top quality, arch shaped window, as there are in the entire house.  The main living area incorporates the kitchen, dining and living areas, with five sets of glass patio doors leading to a corridor balcony, and a the side patio doors lead out to what could be made into a very beautiful outdoor patio terrace with gardens beyond (all requiring some planning and imagination).

To the right of this huge room are two double doors leading into another room, (3.5 x 3.7m) with a further two sets of double patio doors.  This room could be a bedroom, or a second, separate living room.

Steps from the main living area lead down to the lower floor.  At the bottom of the stairs is a landing area, with a large bathroom (3.2 x 2m) and a lovely open area in the centre (2.4 x 4m) with two sets of patio doors leading to the lower garden terrace.  Under the staircase is a store room.  Either side of the open area is a large bedroom.  To the left, a huge room of 25m2 (around 4.5 x 6m), an to the right, a bedroom of 15m2 (4 x 3.85m).  Both rooms also have their own double sets of patio doors to the outside.  It would be easy to adapt the open area to create a third bedroom, and bedroom 1 is large enough to create its own ensuite bathroom within it.

Back upstairs, to the left of the front door, within the hallway, are steps that lead up to a small landing and a glass door to a magnificent roof terrace of 9.23 x 4m, including terrace access stairwell.  From here one can truly appreciate a 360º view, from sea, to the wonderful undulations of the distant mountain ranges.

The apartment
Just below the main house and set slightly to the west is the apartment, with its own garden area around it and separate side access from the main gates, meaning that it would be possible to drive a car down to the building.  The apartment  consists of a main door into a large studio room (14.45m2) and a large bathroom to the left (7.37m2).  And accessed from the rear is a tool shed of 2.54m2.  This would be an ideal place for offering to tourists for a little extra income, or for family and friends.

The gardens and land
The upper and lower floors of the main house both have access to outside, and the land at the moment has been left to nature.  Here, beautiful gardens, patios and terraces could transform this stunning property into a quite unique and breathtaking little paradise oasis.  Anyone thinking of moving here permanently or semi-permanently, with a love of gardening, has a blank canvas here to create magic!  Beyond the garden area, a path meanders down the hill to lower levels and plenty of natural vegetation and trees.  Near the bottom is a large open irrigation reservoir (14m2) with a storeroom of 5m2.  And everywhere, the views are quite beautiful.

To the East, just below the main house and on the same level as the apartment is a flat area that would be perfect for a swimming pool.  As a licence for an in-ground pool is not usually permitted, a quality above ground pool here, which could be strategically installed to be level with the ground on one side, would complete this beautiful property.  For ideas of stunning, quality above ground pools, check out this link: ItalianDolceVitaPools

This beautiful home, with just a little minor work, could be a perfect retirement or holiday home. Properties with such wonderful views are not often on the market and so now is the time to contact us about this one!
