THE STORY:
- We enter the vast walled and secured estate of 7000 m² through the main gate and immediately feel that we have entered a green oasis. We see a sprawling lawn and various accommodations like a guest house, apartment and office. Following a small road we finally arrive at the main residence. We cross a courtyard and enter the hallway through the double antique front door. Here we are welcomed with a large old hand painted picture depicting the story of the House “Catifa” (literally meaning “the best of the picking” and are impressed by various colourful inscriptions.
- Off the hallway there are two large bedrooms en suite both with their own dressing area and patios with direct access to the garden. The hallway is overlooked by an internal patio with a fountain and seated area with an old bougainvillaea amass with colour.
- The kitchen is of French style boasting an open fireplace and an Aga cooker all fitted, with a table and seating for those family breakfasts around the cosy fireplace in the winter whilst in the summer the kitchen opens to a small garden with fountains and colours of bougainvillaea and jasmine lovely for an intimate al fresco dinner.
- The lounge being of a high domed ceiling with a fresco, has a large marble open fireplace, a couple of steps down to a dining room with an open fireplace. Both the lounge and dining rooms have direct access to the garden and Pool area. Leading from the Lounge you have another level to the study. With its original coloured stained glass it gives the appearance of a church with its arched windows and a Juliet balcony.
- Also, on this floor is the main bedroom, with an open fireplace, 2 bathrooms all with views including a patio overlooking the vast green garden.
- The pool area is easily accessible from all rooms on the ground floor and a real highlight of the estate. The Pool is heated and surrounded by a “Chiringuito” with a bar, dining, lounge and professional kitchen perfect for out door living and entertaining. There is a changing room, shower, two toilets, jacuzzi, steam room and a unique Andalucian arched seated area, all suitable for entertaining. Above the seated area is a gym overlooking the pool. During exercise there you can enjoy wonderful sea views.
- Just along from the gym is a 2 bedroom apartment, with a lounge, American style kitchen and a bathroom, views to the garden and a garage underneath. There is also an office which can be a staff accommodation as it consists of a studio with an open kitchen and bathroom. The estate also has a 2 bedroom guest house (“Casita”) with American style kitchen lounge, bathroom and an outside seated patio. It is ideal for a guest, granny or teenager as it is situated not far from the main gate and offers total independence from the main house.
- The estate also has highlights for HORSE LOVERS: there are 3 stables all with a proper tiled roof built with climate in mind. They have thick walls, so are warm in winter and cool in summer, special fly nets, hay feeder and automatic water drinker. There is a small picadero so the horses have direct access outside the stable and a large dressage arena. The riding out is excellent with little or no roads and easy access to beach and mountain riding.
- A real highlight is the garden of the estate as it makes it an unusually green oasis in a very hot country. It is filled with various fruit trees consisting of oranges, lemons, figs, plums, avocados, mangos, cherimoya, nisperos, and manderines. Extremely important in this hot country is the estate´s own water well.
