Originally designed as two separate houses, the villa is thoughtfully built over two levels. The main entrance opens to a spacious, open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area with elegant wooden flooring, a double-sided fireplace, and panoramic windows framing captivating mountain views.

Descending to the lower level of the first house, you’ll find two bedrooms and a bathroom, each providing direct access to the outdoors with inviting decking and terraces surrounding the house. This level also includes a convenient laundry and boiler room.

 

An office space serves as the connection between the two parts of the house, leading to the second section where three more bedrooms, a bathroom, and a shower room await. This area also features a generously sized lounge with a fireplace, a former enclosed terrace prepared for conversion into a second kitchen, and an expansive indoor area perfect for yoga, wellness activities, or creative use, complemented by a charming mezzanine.

 

The exterior boasts a garage and carport with two workshops, wood storage, and a flat lawn surrounded by a picturesque cork oak forest, fruit trees, and vibrant gardens. Additionally, the property includes a ruin on a separate plot, which offers excellent potential for future development.

Whether you envision this retreat as a private family home, a shared holiday escape, or a successful rural tourism or wellness retreat, the possibilities are endless.
