La Mairena Magnificent Country..

BARGAIN !! A Magnificent country estate nestled within a forest of cork
oaks on a massive 32.000 m2 plot in the hills above Marbella, enjoying
breathtaking views of the Costa del Sol. The exceptional views are
enhanced by the design of the house by famous Architect Cesar de Leyva
which, although recently built, is inspired by classical Andalusian
architectural elements from the past in the style of a country palace
modeled on the historic Hacienda Benazuza in Seville. A private road leads
through a mountain ridge forest up to the stunning entrance to the property.
The main portal, with supporting lintel, opens into a cobbled patio with
central fountain which, in turn, leads to the main entrance of the residence.
Inside, life in the house revolves around two patios with fountains which,
with the gentle trickling of water, provide a relaxing atmosphere to the
adjoining rooms. The interiors are composed of elements drawn from
various sources: Arab and French-style drawing rooms, ten antique
fireplaces throughout the property, Mozarab coffered ceilings in oak, the
impressive Neo-gothic dining room and the library in truest English style.
Traditional forms combine with modern comforts and conveniences, such
as under floor heating, air conditioning, sound system in all rooms, etc.
Various terraced areas are strategically located within the property to
provide a number of ambiences, each with a different feel. With magnificent
gardens and hundred-year-old trees, fountains, and picturesque walks
surrounded by lush greenery, it is not surprising that this estate has been
awarded the Prize for the Best Private Garden on the Costa del Sol,
granted by the Jose Banus Foundation.
Price recently reduced again from €7.9m, making this a superb bargain
opportunity not to be missed.
