* A significant house in it's own grounds - a house worthy of its unsurpassed setting

* The best winter climate in mainland Europe

* 50 minutes from Malaga airport, much the  same from Granada city, and just over an hour from the country's principle ski centre

* 20 minutes walk from the beach at La Herradura and the picturesque Marina del Este

* Costa Tropical - real Spain, so much less developed, East of Malaga

*   Large detached property [500m2]. Orientation south west with almost every room having uninterrupted views of the sea.
 
*   INSIDE ---- spacious interconnecting triple reception rooms, fabulous kitchen, utility and elegant sweeping marble staircase. Six double bedrooms, five bathrooms, of which one bedroom and bathroom, together with a further sitting room is arranged as a separate apartment with its own access - internal and external; sauna and cellar.
 
*   OUTSIDE ---- wonderful gardens [plot 1740 m2], 14 metre pool, double garage and parking and approx. 145 m2 of marble floored terraces, of which  more than three quarters  is sea facing and over 80 m2 is covered. The whole property is enclosed  within stone walls averaging 2 metres high. Exceptionally private.
 
*   On a cul de sac [4 houses], off a cul de sac, on the most favoured hill on the Punta.
 
*   Spectacular unspoilt 240 degrees views of the sea, the Marina, La Herradura bay, and the mountains. Some 140 metres above sea level and 20 minutes walk [precisely] from La Herradura beach.
 
*   House built in 1972 to exacting specifications of American owners, since which time its outer stucture has remained unaltered. Attention to detail is exemplified by the roof overhang which keeps the upper terrace and principal rooms shaded in high summer and lets the winter sun, lower in the sky, flood in when it is so welcome. And by the terrace doors which slide open fully into recesses in the walls. With an unsparing refurbishment over recent years the house is one of genuine distinction.
 
*   A harmonious house of light --- all rooms with marble floors, all five bathrooms and cloakroom have matching marble walls, floor to ceiling. All internal doors are the same, and the decor is consistent throughout.
