A GRAND COUNTRY ESTATE
COUNTRY PROPERTY ON THE EDGE OF SOTOGRANDE To enjoy the freedom and space of a true country property yet be within a few minutes of Sotogrande , golf , shops , restaurants , beaches and an international school is a rare combination indeed .
Most country properties in these parts are found further inland in the valleys and ranges that extend inland from San Enrique de Guadiaro . Among extensive orchards and pastures you will encounter fincas and cortijos yet none are as conveniently located as this fine country property right on the edge of Guadiaro – just five minutes from Sotogrande itself .
NATURE AND CONVENIENCE IN ONE A true country estate , it extends over 13 hectares of undulating land on the very periphery of Sotogrande , incorporating hill country , gently sloping land and the largely level area that the main house and stables are located on . The latter is a stately country property with traditional charm and up-to-date amenities that is surrounded by natural beauty and lovely views all around .
The private gardens and driveways that envelop the 1,150m2 main villa measure a total of 8,000m2 , shrouding the property in greenery and shaded areas that frame the views down to the coast . A large forecourt provides a suitable sense of arrival , complete with garages and parking spaces positioned amid cork oak and palm trees .
Stepping through the grand entrance reveals a classic Andalusian courtyard around which the villa ’ s five bedroom suites are arranged on two levels . A colonnaded walkway surrounds the patio , which also provides access to additional studies and reading rooms , as well as the main living areas , which include a lovely country style family kitchen , a large drawing room and a grand salon on the first floor .
From the lounge , French doors open out onto an expansive terrace with a raised section that offers some of the best views in the property . It is an ideal spot for relaxing , entertaining , outdoor dining and making into a stylish chill-out zone .
Though essentially a contemporary country home , the property offers lots of scope to add modern style and amenities .
