About the property

Set in the picturesque La Acedia valley close to the mountaintop town of Casares, a 20 minute drive inland from the popular Costa del Sol, Villa Bermeja affords every conceivable trapping for leisure and pleasure. Inspired by award-winning architect Aubrey David, a South African naturalized in Spain for over 40 years, the property showcases his unparalleled knack for maximizing space, light and locking in nature with double-height beamed ceilings and plenty of glazing. Outside, Villa Bermeja has a generous 10 metre by 10 metre heated swimming pool as well as a relaxing Jacuzzi tub and outdoor shower. Inside, Villa Bermeja has a health suite with 12 metre by 3.5 metre heated indoor swimming pool, sauna and selection of gym equipment. The seasons are no barrier to well-being at this property. Living accommodation is accessed by an oversized typical Ronda-style wooden door inviting guests to several living rooms with open fireplaces and an open-plan kitchen fully fitted and equipped with white units and a spacious dining area. A total of eight bedrooms and bathrooms feature in the 842m2 property, two of which are in a self-contained guest cottage, whilst the master suite is a delight with vaulted beamed ceiling and sumptuous four poster bed. Completed in the 1980s but completely renovated in 2008, the entire home is immaculately presented and tastefully finished, with furnishings included in the sales price. Once safely within the automatic entry gates and at the top of the tree-lined driveway, living at Villa Bermeja is completely private and cannot be overlooked by any of its neighbours. This, combined with a considered floorplan, means that the home is ideal for family living, entertainment, boutique hotel accommodation or indeed lavish country weddings. Yet rural does not mean remote, the coast is just 20 minutes by car and WiFi internet access, a mobile telecommunications booster and an emergency power supply in the unlikely event of a cut keep residents firmly in touch with the outside world. Villa Bermeja is priced at 2.35 million euros with all furniture included in the price.
