One of this property’s greatest assets is its location: right in the heart of the village, yet with extensive grounds that promise an exceptional level of privacy and comfort.

The 1,000-sqm plot includes a charming garden with lawn, a spectacular covered swimming pool for year-round enjoyment and a covered porch with a masonry barbecue and wood-burning oven and fire. This particular spot is guaranteed to win your heart.

The house and grounds are fully enclosed by high granite walls for maximum privacy.

Inside, underfloor heating in the living room adds a luxurious touch, while the pool is equipped with a diesel heater.

The three-storey layout has been planned for optimum enjoyment of both social and private space.

On the ground floor we find the spacious living room, divided into two distinct zones each with a French-style fireplace, and a stunning central staircase neatly dividing the house into two complementary halves. Also on this level are the kitchen, with an office nook, a guest bathroom and a fabulous home spa with jacuzzi and Finnish sauna.

The first floor contains the double-height master bedroom with full ensuite, plus two further ensuite bedrooms opening onto a pleasant terrace with garden views. One of the secondary bedrooms is a duplex, with space for additional beds or perhaps a library and games area.

Up on the second floor, we find two invitingly cosy attic bedrooms with woodburning stove.

The property also includes a self-contained apartment with its own bathroom, suitable for guests with restricted mobility.

A wonderful family home, this remarkable property would also make an ideal tourist venture — it comes with all licences in place for a capacity of up to 16 guests.

The setting is hard to beat: convenient motorway access, barely 85 km from Madrid and the stunning natural backdrop of the Sierra del Rincón, a protected area surrounded by natural beauty spots such as the internationally important Hayedo de Montejo beech forest.
