Chalet 4 rooms, Sayalonga

Situated between the villages of Sayalonga and Algarrobo this superb country property has excellent access from a tarmac road. The views over the verdant countryside, up to the Sierras and down towards the Mediterranean are truly splendid.

On two levels, a gated entrance with automatic gates and video security opens onto the large parking area at the side of the house. Pathways wind through the gardens to the house which has been built on two floors. Entrance is via a trellised archway leading to a small terrace and from here one enters through the impressive 17th century wooden doorway into the hallway which opens directly onto the living area which is a large room with sufficient space for dining or relaxing around the wood burning fire. The fitted kitchen has a door opening onto a spacious terrace. On this level there are three bedrooms, one which overlooks the pool and another with a Juliet balcony. Two of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and there is very attractive bathroom. A stairway with wooden banister leads to the upper floor where there is a magnificent master bedroom suite. The bedroom has a fireplace, an adjoining dressing room and a split level bathroom with Jacuzzi bath. There is another room on this floor which could be utilised as an additional bedroom or sitting room. There is also a useful storage room and a fantastic partially covered terrace which has an Arabic style tower with wooden ceiling.

Terracotta tiles, original iron, natural stone and carefully selected ancient wood have been used in the construction to add to the rustic charm of this incredible property. The exterior is every bit as lovely as the inside of the house with a large terrace around the swimming pool which continues to the terrace and barbecue area which can be accessed from the kitchen and another terrace with fountain on a lower level . These terraces give a lot of privacy to enjoy the sunshine. From here one can access the stables (for two horses) and the exercise ring. There are two henhouses, a bodega and storage shed. The gardens are well maintained with many flowers, shrubs and trees and every turn of the pretty stone pathways offers one the opportunity to view another delightful area whether it is a palm tree or another fountain.

If your dream is a Spanish farmhouse that combines modern style with rustic ambience then this is the right property for you. Mains water and electricity are connected, as is internet and there is also a 10.000 litre water deposit.
