Imagine living in a traditional Spanish hacienda estate in the countryside. This finca for sale in Spain, located just 30 minutes south of Seville, is more like a palace and is surely one of Andalusia's finest country houses. Appropriately named ‘El Palacio’ (The Palace), the property offers absolute peace and tranquillity while still being close to the historic cliff-top town of Ronda, Seville International Airport, Malaga Airport and many other services.
This typical Spanish property is steeped in history, maintaining original period features throughout, such as impressive wrought-iron gates, a wonderful original cobbled courtyard and an antique stone fountain in the enormous walled courtyard. In recent years it has had extensive restoration work done to it, giving it the perfect balance between historical tradition and modern luxury living.
The main house offers palatial accommodation spread over two floors. There are a total of seven double bedrooms, five of which are located around the central courtyard and each enjoying the luxury of their own private terrace. All the bedrooms have their own heating with wood-burning stoves and en suite bathrooms. Both the upstairs bedrooms are enormous – over 100 m2 (1,076 sq ft) – and each have a private balcony.
It contains a farmhouse-style kitchen with a large Aga and a terrace outside where you can enjoy al fresco dining. There is also a huge drawing room with its own private terrace, a large landing area upstairs with fabulous views of the Andalusian countryside, with its miles of olive groves and sunflowers fields.
Out back is the main family swimming pool, measuring 13. 5m x 7.5 m (44 ft x 24.5 ft) and a pretty gazebo provides the perfect place to sit back and relax with a glass of local sherry. If that doesn’t do it for you, you can always get the luxury spa treatment in your very own stunning Moroccan-inspired Hammam and heated indoor pool!
Showcasing the best of traditional Spanish nobility and within easy reach of golf courses in Arcos de la Frontera and horse riding in the Grazalema National Park, the Palacio really is the perfect place to relax in the lap of luxury!
