NEW VILLA IN CALPE WITH SEA VIEWS New luxury villa located on the edge of the urban area of Calpe, next to a Mediterranean pine forest overlooking the rock, which you will never look at the same way again after knowing its legend. During the hot summer nights, you will remember this story and be grateful for the gift of living in the Mediterranean. The modern villa is located on a sloping plot of 1079 m2 that coincides with an excellent south-east orientation. The first decision is to place it in a respectful way, generating as few ground movements as possible. We adapt its volume to this topographic condition, integrating it and interacting with the surrounding landscape. This villa designed in the shape of an L was created by freeing up the maximum amount of space inside the plot. One wing has two floors, the other only one. All rooms face south or east and enjoy an extraordinary view of the sea and the Mediterranean forest. The property is so integrated into the slope that only the two heights are perceived from the center of the plot; from the higher adjacent level, the house seems to have only one floor. This L-shaped plan embraces the plot, creating an open central space meant to blend into the adjoining rustic landscape. The real exception of this plot is that it is on the edge of rustic land. So we have a house on urban land with the feeling of living in a Mediterranean forest overlooking the sea. This newly built villa is a contemporary Mediterranean house that combines all technological advances with a design that is in harmony with our landscape and our Mediterranean culture, a friendly and warm architecture that invites you to feel the Mediterranean atmosphere that we have in our imagination but that is so difficult to find in this region. The environment determines the architecture, and our climate and landscape scream “Mediterranean!” The light and the freshness of the shadows cast on the porches of the villas are the protagonists; the house has a strong connection with the outdoor spaces, the interior merges with the exterior, which introduces nature into the house. During most months of the year, outdoor spaces will be experienced as an extension of the home. In the east wing of the ground floor is the heart of the house, the kitchen overlooking the garden and pool, the dining room and the living room with fireplace, all these spaces being connected to the outside by light traditional Mediterranean porches covered in reeds. The south wing houses on the ground floor a beautiful and spacious living room that is very open to the outside but which also opens onto an English patio, which gives us exceptional cross ventilation and great spatial richness. This skylight also lights up a multi-functional space, ideal for a music room, gym, yoga room, game room... or the owner's dream. From the large living room, there is access to the master suite, which thus becomes independent of the other bedrooms on the upper floor. This bedroom has an attractive layout, where the dressing room and the bathroom connect in a circular way without having to go through the rest area, but without a doubt, the most attractive aspect is the private connection of this suite to a covered terrace again with a covered terrace with a Mediterranean porch and views of the pine forest and the sea. Imagine lying down one evening with the windows open, smelling of jasmine, rosemary and lavender... The junction between the two wings on the ground floor is occupied by a sculptural staircase that leads scenically to the night area on the upper floor, with two bedrooms and three bathrooms, connected to a continuous balcony overlooking the sea and the Rock of Ifach, finally, a living space (which can be converted into a third bedroom) with access to two opposing terraces, again cross ventilation passes through the house. The architecture of this house is serene, sensitive, with simple volumes and a dialogue with the environment As for the finishes and the natural vocation: Large windows with wooden carpentry that flood it with light and joy, sun protection on these windows with Majorcan blinds made of bamboo cane. The Mediterranean porches that cast irresistible shadows on the outdoor terraces with a Mediterranean atmosphere..., everything invites you to live, to connect with moments of joy, meetings with friends and family, intimate dinners or parties, whatever, it does not matter, what matters is the company and the feeling of being alive and enjoying life. Interior coatings with natural clay-based paints and colors Exterior cladding with traditional lime mortars and sandstone masonry executed by artisans. Continuous microcement floors evoking the old Mediterranean farms of the region. Some areas have vaulted ceilings with ceramic bovedillas. The landscape design respects the criteria of xerogardening and endemic plant material (Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia, Olea europaea, and of course, terracotta pots where to plant all sorts of culinary and medicinal herbs: sage, chamomile, and endemic plant material: sage, chamomile, plant) endemic plant material (Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia, Olea europaea, and of course, terracotta pots where to plant all sorts of culinary and medicinal herbs: sage, chamomile, plant).
