Description
4 bedrooms – 3 bathrooms – 50m2 pool – 44m2 garage – olive grove – stunning panoramic views – house on one level – no very near neighbours – easy access – plot 2063m2
One of the most stunning country villas currently on the market, with arguably the very best view!
Casa del Cerro is a single level, comfortable, 4 bedroom home (136m2) in immaculate condition, surrounded by beautiful gardens, a magnificent pool terrace, and nature all around.
The views, at least 180º of dramatic, panoramic landscape offering magnificent sunsets (see photos) and hours of sunshine.
A beautiful, concrete country lane leads up, through magnificent olive groves, to the house. It has an electric gated entrance conveniently controlled remotely, leading onto a wide concrete driveway with plenty of open parking spaces plus a 44m2 garage/workshop with electric garage door. From here steps lead up to the level of the house and gardens and one is immediately struck by the awe-inspiring views, including mountain ranges, valley and rolling hills – hours of fun with a pair of binoculars.
The house is set in lovely gardens created and tended lovingly over the years by the current owners, with a large variety of flowering shrubs and bushes, aromatic plants, olive trees and productive orange and lemon trees. The pool (50m2 with walk-in steps) is the perfect place to cool down and an ideal pool for decent swimming (not just splashing around), surrounded by extensive terracing plus a ‘mirador’ terrace at the far end.
To the far end of the property is a rear garden, with a petanca court and a path and steps leading down onto the olive grove, which has been left very much to nature and is home to plenty of wildlife. This is a peaceful place to contemplate this perfect, natural environment, to relax, listen to nature and the passing of the day. It might also be a good location to grow a few vegetables and perhaps further fruit trees.
At sunset, this is probably the best location in the entire Axarquia area to be, ideal for capturing on camera the most dramatic sunsets, or just watching the sun slip over the mountains, and as night falls, the twinkling lights of houses and villages on the hills and in the valley below, together with those of the firmament above, is the very best way to end the day!
The house has a terrace immediately around it, with a well equipped built-in barbecue area and dining terrace, and an arched, covered breakfast terrace. From here, the front door leads into the magnificent living area, with very high ceilings, beams and round windows at the very top bringing in extra light. There are double doors to the outdoor dining and barbecue terrace, and a fireplace with a woodburner for cosy winter evenings. The modern kitchen is open plan, with quality worktops and cupboards. It is an ideal kitchen for cooking enthusiasts. There is a dining area opposite the kitchen, for the rare occasions one might wish to dine inside.
An archway leads to a short corridor, where we find three guest bedrooms (2.5 x 2m, 3 x 3m and 3.5 x 3m), all with built-in wardrobes. Two of the guest bedrooms have double doors out to the gardens and one has an ensuite shower room (1 x 2m). The fourth bedroom or master bedroom is around 4 x 4m plus entrance area, with one wall entirely taken up by built-in wardrobes and double doors out to the front terrace with views, plus an ensuite bathroom (2.5 x 1.5m) with a window to the side.
All rooms have hot/cold air conditioning units (living room and all bedrooms) and the bathrooms have electric towel rails for extra comfort in this very comfortable house.
The windows and doors are all top quality, hermetically sealing imitation wood and all have quality mosquito blinds.
To the rear of the house is a useful lockable store room.
This property has mains electricity and mains water.
This wonderful property is sold fully furnished. It has been used as a permanent home for many happy years, but would also work well as a holiday home.
