Details

Unique 7 bedroom 12th Century Moorish fort, which is ideally located right in the heart of the prestigious Marbella Club golfing resort, on the mountain behind the golf course.

With a Moroccan style and all modern amenities, this avant-garde home is immersed in nature itself, in excellent position with simply stunning 360 degree views over the surrounding golf course, mountains behind and towards the sea.

This palatial property was originally built in 2008 with carefully selected materials, handcrafted by carpenters, metal forgers and tile-maker artisans from the Alpujarras at the foot of the Sierra Nevada mountains.

As soon as one enters the sweeping cobbled driveway the impressive features of this property are clearly evident. The main entrance door leads immediately to a truly breathtaking Moorish-style atrium with handcrafted Alhambra plaster arches, overlooking a basement fountain. The automated sliding glass roof of the atrium allows to enjoy a cool breeze drawn in and over the inside-outside swimming pool.

Built over 3 levels, each floor provides bright and spacious rooms and of course in addition the full length atrium is swathed in the Mediterranean sunlight.

The ground floor has a particularly lovely living room with a double height barrelled ceiling, scored with an emerald green Indian marble floor, a grand statement fireplace and floor to ceiling windows which let the light stream in and open onto the full length and partly covered terrace with its stunning golf and sea views. To one side of this room is an elegant study. The bespoke kitchen and adjoining family room lead onto an outside dining area with a built in vented barbecue. The family cloakroom and 2 guest cloakrooms facilitate generous entertaining in this fully interconnected ground floor. Informal dining is facilitated with both table and counter seating in the kitchen which connects directly to the formal dining room.

On the first floor there are 5 spacious en-suite bedrooms all with breathtaking views from their private terraces. There is also a large roof terrace with a covered kitchenette and dining area which offers incredible 360-degree panoramic views.

The lower level is all about entertainment and relaxation. The large indoor-outdoor heated infinity pool is surrounded with luxurious Travertine marble and has an electrically operated solar panel pool cover. Owners and their guests will also enjoy a gym, cinema room ,games room and adjoining shower/changing room. There are 2 completely independent guest, or staff apartments with separate access via a sunken courtyard with fountain. There is also a generous double garage at the lower level with direct access to the house and a 2-vehicle covered carport at ground floor level, again with direct access to the ground floor.

There is a 4 person lift from basement to roof, but the semicircular stairwell with amber-tinted star windows and cascading antique lanterns is tempting to exercise and enjoy the vista across the atrium.

Other special features include: direct buggy access onto the golf course, grey water/rain recovery system with 2 x 2,000-litre underground tanks for garden watering and 3,000-litre freshwater storage tanks, complete domotics system for lighting, heating and air conditioning, underfloor heating and a fully zoned security alarm with camera system.

The Marbella Club Golf Resort is a 'next to nature' gated residential resort, with 24 hour security,18 hole golf course, an exclusive equestrian centre and a Balinese inspired clubhouse serving excellent cuisine.

Just a 20 minute drive from Marbella.

Spain Property Buying Guide

1. Putting down a Holding Deposit

On finding a property you wish to purchase you will need to negotiate the terms, price and conditions of the sale with the owner. This part of the process is not binding. We would recommend using an independent English speaking legal advisor. Once a purchase price has been agreed, normally a holding or reserve deposit will be required to ensure the property is removed from the market. The sum required will vary between properties and will be based on the purchase price. A time limit for the preagreement to be signed will be arranged and there will also be legal checks to be made.

2. Setting up a Pre-agreement (Contrato privado de compraventa)

The pre-agreement will set out the conditions under which the Buyer and Seller agree to complete the purchase of the property and the price they have agreed upon. Relevant details will generally be included for example the property details, purchase price and the date for completion. A deposit will be required at this point, this will vary, but will generally be 10% of the agreed price. This agreement will include a penal clause if the sale does not go through. If the seller pulls out of the sale your compensation will be double the deposit you have paid, but if you decide not to go through with the sale then your deposit will be lost. Certain checks will need to be made before signing the contract, checks should be made against the title of the property, mortgage status and if the property has any debts held against it. The planning status should also be looked into. These conditions can be varied by the seller and the buyer and other types of agreement can be made.

3. The Contract (Escritura de compraventa)

Before a non-Spanish purchaser can buy a Spanish property they will need to have set up a Spanish bank account and obtained a Spanish tax number (NIE). The completion will take place in the presence of a Notary Public. This is a Spanish public official, by law the deed of sale must be witnessed by a Notary Public. You will also need your own independent, expert legal advisor to act on your behalf. On Completion the buyer must pay the balance, that is the price agreed after the deposit has been deducted, plus any other fees on the completion date. Both buyer and seller must sign the Escritura de compraventa contract, (this is the Spanish equivalent of the title deeds). The title deeds (escritura) will be given to the buyer, this will be done in the presence of a Notary Public, they will certify that the transfer has taken place. The tax office will be sent a copy and the property registry will be informed of the transfer.
