Property description

Nestled within the prestigious La Zagaleta golf and country club, one of Europe's most exclusive residential estates, Villa Las Yucas stands as a testament to luxurious living. This distinguished community boasts two gated entrances secured by 24-hour surveillance, two 18-hole golf courses with clubhouses, an equestrian center, a heliport, racquet club, and dedicated concierge services for its residents. Originally a hunting reserve, La Zagaleta spans over 900 hectares, preserving its natural allure while providing captivating golf and sea vistas.

The property itself is a charming Andalusian-style villa, capturing panoramic mountain views. Thoughtfully laid out across two floors and a basement, the villa includes an inviting entrance hall, a fireplace-adorned living room that opens onto a semi-covered terrace with views of the pool and garden, an adjoining TV room, and a separate formal dining room featuring gabled ceilings embellished with wooden beams. The fully equipped kitchen with a central island adds to the allure of the main floor, complemented by two en-suite bedrooms, one of which enjoys direct access to the covered terrace and garden.

The upper floor is dedicated exclusively to the master bedroom, boasting a delightful dressing area and a spacious bathroom.

The basement level accommodates a staff or guest apartment, providing a private space for live-in staff or guests. This separate area also houses a wine cellar, utility room, substantial storage space, a generous multifunctional room adaptable for a cinema, gymnasium, or spa, and a capacious garage for 2-3 cars.

Step outside, and you'll discover an inviting poolside haven. The sparkling pool beckons for relaxation on sunny days, while the gazebo serves as an ideal venue for entertaining guests. Whether hosting a casual barbecue or a gathering with friends, the gazebo is fully equipped with a built-in barbecue, sink, and cupboards, simplifying the art of hosting.

Meticulously designed living spaces feature terracotta floors, creating a warm and welcoming ambiance. Wooden sliding double-glazed windows not only ensure excellent insulation but also frame breathtaking views of the mountains, golf course, and countryside from every vantage point within the house.
