Full Description
A spacious and impressive country house located very close to the village of Alcaucin, surrounded by beautiful gardens, views, and a stunning swimming pool.
Located just a short walk from the village (around 700m), Casa Grande is an impressive villa with four ensuite bedrooms on the ground floor and two extra bedrooms (or one bedroom and a living room area) on the upper floor. The property, consisiting of a fully fenced, gated plot of 3135m2, is on a quiet country lane, with neighbouring villas nearby, but with excellent privacy.
Automatic gates from the lane lead into the spacious car park, with a beautiful, cobble patterned entrance. There is parking for a number of cars and an entrance to the South leads into the gardens, while a wide walkway to the North leads to the main entrance to the house.
The main entrance consists of a gated covered outdoor courtyard, and a door from here leads into the hallway. From here, to the left is a separate WC, and a door to the kitchen. This lovely room is fully fitted in sold wood and has a back door leading out to a utility patio to the far end of the property, ideal for drying clothes, etc. And here we also find a built-in barbecue area. A door from the kitchen also leads to a useful utility, store room and laundry, holding the central heating boiler, a washing machine and a dryer.
A door from the kitchen, and also from the hallway, leads into the dining room, a bright room, perfect for indoor entertaining. From here, we move to the impressive living room, with tall windows and doors overlooking and leading out onto the covered terrace and the gardens beyond. There is a central, brick decorated, open fireplace for cosy winter evenings and ceiling fans.
Further along the hallway and corridor is access to four beautiful and spacious bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms, ceiling fans, and air conditioning units, some with doors to the gardens. The master bedroom has a spacious dressing room area.
In the hallway/corridor is a wide, sweeping staircase leading up to a large landing. From here is a access to another beautiful ensuite bedroom with a dressing room and a door out onto the upper terrace with beautiful views over the gardens, pool and countryside beyond. Next door, accessible from the landing, is an additional room, without a bathroom, that could be used as a second bedroom or an upstairs living area. This room also has access to the terrace.
Outside the gardens have been carefully designed and landscaped, with plenty of mature trees, bushes and flowering plants, a heart-shaped mini garden that is a haven of peace, and an orchard of mature fruit trees including oranges, lemons, mango, and many others. Central to the garden is the swimming pool, 50.55m2, with wide, walk-in steps and built in an L-shape. The views from the gardens are stunning, across to the high mountain ranges to the interior and out towards the lush lower valleys.
This delightful property has central heating , air conditioning and is sold fully furnished. It has as much potential as a spacious and luxurious family home or holiday home as it does as a B&B, depending on requirements. Its easy access and proximity to the village is a major asset. A beautiful and very special country home!
