A beautifully designed contemporary home with the best of both worlds – amazing sea views to the front over the Atlantic Ocean where you can enjoy simply breathtaking sunsets and to the back, far reaching views over the countryside and villages where you can enjoy stunning sunrises as you enjoy your morning coffee.

The house has four bedrooms, an office and a playroom, both of which could be used as additional bedrooms if desired, formal lounge and an open place kitchen, dining and sitting area. There are plenty of storage spaces incorporated into the design. The villa sits on a lot of over 11,000m2 and has access to the front and rear of the land. The house also has underfloor heating throughout which is heated by way of solar panels, an irrigation system for the garden and there is an 8 x 4 in-ground swimming pool, surrounded by sun terraces.
In detail ….......
The property is accessed by way of a single pedestrian gate or a double electric gate that leads down the driveway to the lower level garage. The pedestrian gate is fitted with a telecom system in order that it can be opened from the inside of the house.



The path from the front gate leads to the front door which opens into a wide and spacious entrance hall that is double height and has a beautiful staircase with glass balustrades that leads to the top level of the home. This whole area is flooded with natural light from the windows and huge doors that fill this home throughout.

There is, to the right, an open arch that leads into the open space kitchen, dining and sitting area, almost the modern day equivalent of a “great room.” Your eye is caught by the beautiful kitchen that has a centre island cooking area that is open to the dining room making this a perfect area for entertaining, especially as the huge patio doors here open directly onto the patio area and swimming pool. The kitchen area has a range of base and wall units and a centre island with work surfaces incorporating a double stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap over, a five ring gas hob with extractor fan over and a double eye level wall oven. There is a hook up for a dishwasher and an integrated fridge-freezer.

The laundry room has a set of base and wall units with a stainless steel sink with tap over. There is also the gas boiler and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also space here for an American style fridge/freezer. There is a window to the rear and a door to the garden.

The dining and sitting room area is large and has over sized patio doors that open directly onto the patio and swimming pool area.

From the entrance hall and to the left is a room used at present as a playroom but could be an additional bedroom, it features wooden floors and a full window and door to the front that looks out over the garden. There is a built in wardrobe/storage cupboard.

The next room has wooden floors, a large glass panel door that opens to the side garden. There is also an attractive inset strip lighting here. Again this room could be used as an additional bedroom but is used at present as an office area.

There are “hidden” spaces to either side where wood can be stored. A full wall of windows and glass panel door looks out over the front of the gardens and towards the sea. A further glass wall with large patio doors opens to the rear terrace and swimming pool area and affords views over the countryside.

The beautiful centre staircase leads to the upper level that opens to the top balcony that is finished with glass balustrades. This provides a lovely open feel and ensures maximum light to the area.

Off the hallway is a full glass panel door that opens onto a surround that leads around the upper level of the home.

The first bedroom is at the end of the hallway and features wood floors, full glass panel window and door that opens onto a front terrace that is fronted with glass panelling and looks towards the sea and a full glass panel to the rear that looks out over the countryside beyond – this tilts to provide ventilation if desired. There are two built in wardrobes and a ensuite bathroom that has a sink set onto a vanity unit, a walk in shower with soaker shower head and a toilet.

The hall then leads to the master bedroom. The master has wood floors, a full wall of built in wardrobes/storage and a three quarter wall of floor to ceiling window and glass panel door that opens onto a glass fronted balcony that looks out over the sea. The ensuite bathroom is accessed by way of a pocket door. The bathroom features a large sink set into an attractive vanity unit with two drawers and a large window over, a toilet and a large walk in shower. There is a heated towel rail and a full glass panel door that opens to the garden.

The family bathroom is spacious and features a full bath with shower off the taps, a large walk in shower, sink set into a vanity unit, toilet and bidet. There is a full glass panel door that tilts and turns – a glass rail is installed to the outside. The bathroom is fully tiled.

The third bedroom has wooden floors and double aspect tilt and turn doors with the front, in addition, having a full glass panel window – the door here opens onto a large balcony that is glass fronted and looks out over the countryside views beyond. There are built in wardrobes.

The fourth bedroom has wood floors and a full glass window and glass tilt and turn door that leads to the glass fronted balcony.

On the lower level is a under stairs storage space with a door off to the large garage. There is a remote control garage door and a door that leads to the side.

There is a room that is used at present for storage but would make a games/play room or inner office etc. The machine room is also on this level where there are the controls for the underfloor heating from the solar panels.
