This is a beautiful country house style villa that has been built to the highest standards with thick walls, high ceilings (3.2m), tall windows and doors, handmade terracotta tiles and stunning views to the sea and the Cabrera mountains.

From the terrace with panoramic views you walk into the terraced garden filled with indigenous plants such as broom, lavander, rosemary, fennel, ivy, prickly pear cactus, asparagus, galan de noche and esparto grass. This is all fitted with a watering system. The owners´ intention was always to keep the garden filled with indigenous plants so as to be as much in keeping with the surrounding protected countryside.

The land is planted with 265 olive trees (125 arbequinos and 140 mediterranea or del país which produce roughly 2000 kilos of olives). There is a water deposit (100m3) that is filled from a natural water source in the mountain and the finca is alloted 2 hours every 24 hours from 11 to 1pm (about 50,000 litres of water). The water can be stored in the water deposit of 100 m3. The property is also connnected to water on the mains.
