Villa en venta en El Madronal, Marbella €7.800.000

Approximately 9kms from the beaches of the coast this magnificent villa is situated on a flat south facing plot within a gated community of El Madroñal. El Madroñal’s appeal is found in its location, offering countryside living, tranquillity and peace, yet in close proximity to all types of amenities as well as the security within the estate. The property has recently undergone a radical refurbishment which has resulted in a strong contemporary feel to the property, whilst still maintaining many of the original features of the "Spanish Cortijo" design. The property built around a central courtyard with a fountain comprises on the ground floor the lounge with high gabled ceilings decorated with wooden beams, gallery and formal dining room with a fireplace, covered terraces, a fully equipped kitchen with adjoining family room and access to terrace, three guest suites, guest cloakroom, and stairs up to a further guest suite in the tower. Stairs lead down to the lower ground floor with gymnasium, sauna, steam room, games and t.v. room, a further bedroom and bathroom for guests or staff, laundry and ironing room. On the first floor there is the master suite with vaulted wooden ceiling, sitting and dressing areas, private terrace and bathroom with fireplace and whirlpool. Almost all rooms have patio doors leading onto covered terraces and the fabulous cobbled internal courtyard. Mature gardens have been set with a variety of fruit trees, herbal plants, and exotic trees. There is a small casita in the garden and a large 12m x 5m heated swimming pool. Private garage for several cars, under floor heating throughout except on the lower ground floor with air conditioning by split units.
