Property Description
This top-quality and thoroughly modern apartment is part of a recently completed private development (which comprises six luxury apartments and two houses in total) in the centre of lovely Gaucín village. All on one floor, it has three bedrooms and is the largest of the apartments in the little complex. Communal facilities include a gorgeous swimming pool and secure underground garage parking.
Its location, in the heart of the village, is difficult to beat. Gaucín is one of the classic and most beautiful of all the pueblos blancos commanding sweeping views over Gibraltar to the Rif Mountains of Morocco across the Mediterranean Sea. South facing, the apartment takes full advantage of the magnificent, panoramic view which unfolds in front of you.
One enters to the main (80 m2) open-plan living area, a huge and very welcoming space, its design and layout clean and crisp. White predominates with dark wood and colourful fabrics offering attractive contrast. One end contains a thoroughly modern and well equipped kitchen area with a comprehensive stock of electrical appliances (American style fridge/freezer, washing machine and drier, dishwasher, gas hob and electric oven) and plenty of uncluttered working space.
Beyond, to the left, is a large dining table which comfortably seats eight, with the sitting area to the right. Comfortable sofas and easy chairs are gathered around an antique wooden coffee table in front of the open fireplace (logs are provided) and the 32" flat screen TV/DVD player. As everywhere in the apartment, furnishings and finishes are of excellent standard. Light floods in from the sliding glass doors which lead out to the terrace and to that magnificent view.
Partly under cover and partly enjoying the sunshine which lights up the beautiful vista from dawn until dusk, the terrace is a great spot for eating out on long summer nights, taking in the view over the village roof tops to the castle (floodlit at night) and the dramatic Crestellina Ridge rising up from the surrounding hills. Ever changing, it's a view that is always inspirational.
There are three bedrooms, all of them leading off from the lounge. The master, double bedroom has direct access to the terrace, a king-sized bed and an en-suite bathroom (with both a large bath and a separate shower). A twin bedroom (the beds can be joined together if required) also has access to the terrace. This shares a bathroom (with a large walk-in shower and which can also be accessed directly from the lounge) with the third bedroom which has a double bed and windows looking to the street. Both bathrooms have under floor heating.
There are lots of extra touches which will make your holiday complete: everything has been designed to provide a beautiful living environment. Heating and air conditioning (in the lounge and master bedroom) and double glazed windows ensure year round comfort. One is struck by how beautifully quiet the apartment is, just one of the benefits of the excellent insulation. Wi Fi internet access is provided. The house manager lives nearby and is on hand for meeting and greeting, local information etc. And then there is the gated swimming pool, shared with the other apartments in the development, which is large, inviting and surrounded by a terrace with sunbeds, a pool shower and fridge.
Gaucín is spectacularly situated in the mountains behind the Costa del Sol in the Serrania de Ronda. There are fabulous views at every turn. With a population of 2,000, its narrow streets house four supermarkets and a traditional butcher, an organic food shop, banks (cash points) and a pharmacy. Within walking distance of the apartment are a variety of small restaurants and tapas bars, one of which hosts regular flamenco performances.
Set against the backdrop of the Ronda Mountains, you will enjoy, depending on the time of year, a brilliant palette of colour: red poppies, yellow mimosa, wild orchids and the pale pink of almond blossom. Whether you want to explore the wonderful nature and first class hiking, discover the culture and traditions of historic Ronda, or enjoy the beaches and golf courses of the Costa del Sol, there's something here for everyone.
Beautiful Mediterranean beaches are only 30 minutes away by car. The wilder, white beaches of the Atlantic coast, on the Costa de la Luz, are about 1½ hours drive away.
