Description
In the beautiful bay of La Herradura, in the area known as Peña Parda, less than a 10-minute walk from the beach (shortened by crossing a property) or a pleasant 20-minute stroll, with incredible views of the beach and sea, and just minutes from the Cerro Gordo Natural Park, a protected area with one of the most spectacular sunsets on the entire Andalusian coast, visible from the Cerro Gordo viewpoint.
A five-minute drive from the motorway junction that takes you to Granada, a historic and monumental city that is a must-see, less than 45 minutes away; Málaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol, a hub for tourism, golf, leisure, and shopping, 55 minutes away; and the stunning natural beauty of the Alpujarras and Sierra Nevada mountains, 90 minutes away.
In an exceptional location, as this house was one of the first in the area, its first owner chose a 940m2 plot that overlooks the surrounding area, offering spectacular views of the bay, the beach, the sea, the town, and the mountains. Here, he built this home of over 300m2, featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 1 toilet, a very spacious living room with a fireplace and breathtaking views of over 200m2 of terraces and a solarium, each with its own distinct atmosphere. The property culminates in a stunning heated infinity pool with a water surface of 40.25 square meters.
To describe the layout of the house in more detail, arriving from the beach or the main road (it has several different access points), you'll find a large, enclosed garage of over 40m2, with space for two cars and several more at the entrance.
We descend a short flight of stairs to reach the main floor of the house, 165m2. A small entrance hall leads to the very spacious main living room, with a fireplace and access to the terrace. There is also another living room with side access to the pool and barbecue area, a bar with a small outdoor kitchen, and sunshine all day long.
On this floor, we also have a guest toilet, the kitchen, and two bedrooms, the master bedroom with its own terrace and a large en-suite bathroom.
We then move on to the star attraction: almost 200m2 of terraces and a solarium, with the heated pool as its centerpiece. From here, in the water, with a drink in hand, we can enjoy privileged views, both day and night, with nothing to obstruct or detract from the beauty, and the exceptional climate of the Costa Tropical, with temperatures between 18 and 25 degrees Celsius year-round and more than 330 days of sunshine.
From here we can go down to the guest area, 118m2, where we find, in addition to a pleasant common area with a large table, two completely independent en-suite bedrooms with direct access from the street via a side staircase. There is also access from the adjacent property to the path that leads down to the beach in just a few minutes. The old wine cellar and billiards area are also located there, where another bedroom could be created if needed.
It's worth noting that there is a spacious garage for two cars in the access area.
As it is an older house, the bathrooms, kitchen, etc., need updating and some improvements, but this is secondary. What truly stands out about this property is its exceptional location, its accessibility, and above all, its privileged and exceptional views. With a southwest orientation, and perched atop the hill where it is situated, it enjoys sun all day long.
And what we cannot fail to mention are its beautiful, magical, and exceptional sunrises.
A property with a raw energy and powerful presence that captivates all who visit it, and we invite you to experience it for yourself. Just call us, schedule an appointment, and discover it for yourself.
