Luxurious villa in La Herradura on a huge plot overlooking the natural reserve and the bay.
This beautiful, Andalusian mansion is located on a huge plot of pure privacy and exclusivity, overlooking the natural reserve of Cerro Gordo-Maro, the bay of La Herradura, and the Mediterranean Sea. Tucked away in the lush nature of the Costa Tropical, in between the coastal towns of La Herradura and Nerja, the location of this property is absolutely privileged.
The villa, south-oriented, is strategically positioned towards La Herradura Bay to maximize the views. Upon arriving at the property, a long, private driveway leads to the garage and the main entrance of the villa. Before arriving at the front door, you are welcomed by an inner courtyard decorated with a fountain and tropical plants. To the right of the front door, there is a guest bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.
When you step inside, you are greeting by a spacious hall with double-height ceilings. The open spaces and large windows allow you to enjoy the impressive views of the town, the sea and Cerro Gordo from almost every corner of the house. The semi-open living area consists of a lounge with a fireplace, a dining area, and a large kitchen with a pantry and laundry room. The living room opens onto a covered veranda with views over the pool and garden to the sea.
By the dining area, there is a bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Back in the entrance hall, there is a corridor that leads to two more suites with fitted wardrobes. One of these suites opens onto the covered veranda. The main bedroom is located on the upper floor and has fitted wardrobes, an en-suite bathroom and access to a small terrace with stunning views.
The villa is surrounded by a mature garden with lots of plants, palms and fruit trees, a waterfall and pergolas. The barbecue area is next to a grand round pergola offering magnificent views. The salt water pool (10 x 5 m), surrounded by lawn and a terrace, is set a little away from the house. By the pool area, there is a covered relaxation area with a jacuzzi, shower and a separate toilet. There is also a large room that could serve multiple purposes.
The house has a built size of 398 m2 + 300 m2 of terraces distributed on 3 levels: the main floor, upper floor and the garden level. It was renovated in 2017, including among others new floors, bathrooms and a new kitchen, therewith preserving the charm of the original finca. The house is cool in summer and warm in winter, thanks to the double glazing, the new modern fireplace and the air conditioning in every room, including in the kitchen and in the hall.
The property sets on a plot of 25.000 square meters (2.5 Ha.), of which 2.000 are fenced. It is filled with native trees and Mediterranean flora. There are tropical fruit trees, palms, pines, brooms, mastic, oaks, carob trees, cypresses, and more. There are also about 100 centenary olive trees with which the owners produce their own olive oil.
Situated in a natural reserve with no neighbours close-by, this beautiful finca for sale guarantees complete privacy and yet, it’s only 1.5 km to the town of La Herradura and 3 km to the beach. The property is currently a successful holiday home generating a generous yearly income.
