Full Description
Located in the peaceful countryside of El Algayat, just 5 minutes from the town of La Romana, this beautifully renovated country home combines the charm of a traditional Spanish cave house with the comfort of modern living. La Romana offers all essential amenities, including supermarkets, bars, restaurants, and a sports centre, while the property enjoys a tranquil rural setting surrounded by farmland and valley views.
The house sits on a 5,143 m² landscaped plot featuring mature gardens, fruit trees, and inviting outdoor spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining.
Exterior
To the front of the house, an ornate wooden pergola provides a shaded seating area, ideal for enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Adjacent to this, there is another covered terrace perfect for alfresco dining, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens with fruit trees, flowering plants, and a decorative fountain.
Up a short flight of stairs to the side of the property, a solar-heated jacuzzi offers the perfect spot to unwind while enjoying panoramic views over the stunning Algayat Valley.
The entrance gate is electric, providing access to a large double garage with electric doors, offering plenty of room for two vehicles and additional storage. A second gated access is located at the top of the plot, above the cave section, and behind the garage you’ll find a greenhouse for growing plants and vegetables. The property also includes a rainwater collection system used for irrigation.
Interior
The non-cave section of the property is distributed over two floors, seamlessly connecting to the cave area that adds natural charm and excellent insulation - cool in summer and warm in winter.
Entering through the main door, you are welcomed by a bright conservatory with comfortable seating, leading into a spacious kitchen and dining area with tall beamed ceilings that give a warm, rustic character. Across from the kitchen, there is a large pantry with a fridge-freezer, and an adjacent toilet for convenience.
Through an archway, there is an office area, and to the right, the first living room with a log burner. A hallway from here leads to the first double bedroom.
Heading deeper into the cave section, another archway opens into a second living room / library, featuring built-in bookshelves and beautiful lighting.
Past this second living room / library, you’ll find the second double bedroom, which includes a gas fire built into the wall and a ventilation system that brings in fresh air and also channels natural light from above the cave through an external light tunnel.
Upstairs, there is an open-plan living area currently used as a sitting room that doubles as a guest bedroom with a sofa bed and pellet burner. This level also features a third double bedroom, a walk-in wardrobe that could easily be converted into another bedroom, and a modern family bathroom with a walk-in shower.
From this floor, doors open out onto a large sunny terrace situated above the cave, offering stunning views across the valley and over the olive trees planted on the property.
