3 bedrooms – 2 bathrooms – beautiful 32m2 pool and terraces – 37m2 garage (could be converted) -views – good access
A beautiful, modern 3 bedoom villa in immaculate condition, with a very spacious sun/garden terrace, pool, a separate garage and panoramic views over the village, countryside and mountains.
Situated above Iznate village and only around 15 minutes from the coast, Casa Elmist is perfect as a permanent home or a holiday home. The house is in perfect condition, is spacious and has easy to maintain outside space laid mainly to tiled terracing, with a gorgeous pool and land below.
Although you have to drive up a steep concrete road to reach the country houses built along the ridge, it is very close to Iznate village and well worth the climb, as the views are stunning! From this property one benefits from a 180º view across many Kms of beautiful Andalusian countryside, taking in many of the villages dotted amongst the hills and valleys, with the dramatic line of the mountain sierras in the distance, and of course, a bird’s eye view of Iznate village, just below.
The drive and garage
The property has a private drive and parking area for several cars, and the drive leads downhill to a very spacious, separate garage, underneath the terrace, and yet with a window (further windows possible) out onto the views. This excellent space (37m2) has a tiled floor, water and electricity. It works well as a garage, store room and workshop, and could be used as a studio for dance, teaching yoga, art, or even to convert into a separate annexe.
The house and pool terrace
The house itself is on a very spacious flat area, all on one level, that is fully tiled, and divided into different zones. There is a covered area to the front, a spacious open area, and the immaculate pool to one side, surrounded by an ample sunbathing terrace. Everywhere, one benefits from the stunning views. There is a door to one side that leads into the a beautiful kitchen (4 x 3.5m) which is fully fitted in quality finishings and in beautiful condition. Next door is a very useful, equal quality utility room (3 x 2.5m). To the right, along the passageway that follows, is the spacious living room (around 6 x 5m) with two sets of sliding patio doors out to the terrace. It would be very easy also to open a large archway from the corridor near the kitchen straight into the living room. Next to the living room is a hallway with a main front door, used mainly as a study area.
There are three double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes and one with a lovely en-suite bathroom and sliding patio doors to the terrace. The other two bedrooms share a spacious guest bathroom. All rooms have ceiling fans with lights.
To one side of the house are outside steps that lead to a lovely look-out terrace on the roof and from here, one can enjoy all the beautiful views to the north and a glimpse of the sea to the south, which is just the other side of the ridge (coast 15 to 20 mins drive). The roof terrace is also a perfect place to study the night sky.
The house is 161m2, all on one level, and built for comfort and quality living. It has top quality windows and doors, security gates and mosquito screens. A floorplan is shown on the photo gallery below.
The terrace garden wraps around the house, with a rear passage leading from the main terrace back out to the parking area.
The land
The plot is a total of 2929m2. Approximately half the plot is taken up by the house, garden and pool terrace, and the garage. The rest slopes down the hillside below, but it would not be difficult to make terraced levels here and create extra garden, should one wish, perhaps with fruit trees or even a vegetable patch.
This is a top quality house, with so many advantages (quality living, all on one level, beautiful views, low maintenance gardens, garage, proximity to village) that would suit anyone from an investor wishing to let the house to tourists, to a couple or family looking for a permanent home.
