This luxurious villa lies on a sloping, three acre olive grove. The villa’s main level has an open, internal patio, around which there is access to the living room with fireplace, a terrace with beautiful views of the Sierra de Grazalema and Ronda, the dining room, a fully equipped designer kitchen, a powder room, and one guest room with bathroom.
A hall way on an intermediate level leads you to two additional bedrooms each with bathroom. The master bedroom is located upstairs. It has a large bathroom and private roof terrace with gorgeous views.
An additional bedroom which doubles as the TV and game room with sitting area and bathroom is on the lower level. There is also a a utility room for washer, dryer, additional freezer, and refrigerator. A separate basement offers sauna and gym with shower and toilet.
The villa is built in elegant, Andalusian style with marble floors, under floor central heating, antique Spanish wooden doors and high, sloped ceilings.
Each bedroom has a ceiling fan for warmer weather, although the house is always pleasantly cool due to thick double walls and typically cool over night temperatures in the summer.
The proprietors owned a well-known Spanish restaurant in Manhattan, so the ability to entertain friends and to enjoy fine cooking and dining were primary goals taken into consideration when this house was designed.
The sloping garden blends into an olive grove with over 80 old olive trees and a vegetable garden near a small creek at the bottom of the property. The private, sun terraced pool area with a ten by four meter salt water pool is located behind the house.
The pool has its own shower and bathroom building with kitchenette as well as a roofed bar area and grill for pool side barbecuing. The unheated pool is open from May till October.
Distances:
The villa is accessible through a remote controlled iron gate at the end of a small driveway. The house is located one and a half kilometers away from the charming, rural and still untouched village of Arriate and eight kilometers away from historic Ronda.
Ronda is situated one hour by car from the airport of Málaga, 45 minutes from Marbella and the Costa del Sol, as well as one hour and 15 minutes from downtown Sevilla.
