If you like an unconventional yet coherent and authentic design, this property could be a real option for you – I certainly took an instant liking to it.
With a sure hand, the owners have transformed two adjoining houses into a spacious home that is a delight to live in.
The south-west-facing terrace serves as the main reception area, where you can sit together and dine, swim in the pool (17.5 m²) or sunbathe. A small but fully covered and shaded seating area adjoins the north side, meaning that in this outdoor space, a cosy spot is always just a few steps away, whatever the season or how you feel about the temperature.
Adjoining this terrace is a living room which is fully glazed from floor to ceiling on three sides. Roller blinds fitted to all the windows allow you to adjust the amount of sunlight to suit your individual needs, whilst the wooden ceiling and wooden floor create a cosy atmosphere. The steel framework of the glazed walls is somewhat reminiscent of late 19th-century industrial architecture: it is certainly unpretentious. This stylistic element is also reflected in the very large conservatory adjoining it on one side, which, bathed in light with its spacious dining area, seating and plenty of room, invites you to do all sorts of things: reading, engaging in artistic pursuits, or even celebrating and dining with a large circle of friends…
Here, too, the wooden floor allows you to walk barefoot without getting cold feet and lends the room a cosy feel. The house used to feature so-called ‘baldosas hidráulicas’ – a Spanish invention of handmade floor tiles that also made their way into Germany’s major cities in the early 20th century. The tiles that were still in good condition after the complete renovation were used here as a border around the wooden floor, as well as on an outdoor terrace adjoining the conservatory and on the two external staircases leading to the roof terraces.
Just a stone’s throw from the dining area lies the kitchen: equally unconventional and well thought-out. The wooden floor once again creates a link to the living and dining rooms; however, granite has been laid in the work area, which is also featured in the worktops and as a wall mirror in the hob area, where it is even backlit. Not a single right angle disrupts the harmonious lines – which was probably a challenge for the craftsmen involved, but a delight to the eye. A two-person dining area in the kitchen is certainly very practical for cooking together and enjoying a quick breakfast for two.
The conservatory, as the central hub of the house, leads on one side to a small guest bedroom or study and a guest bathroom, and on the other side to the very spacious master bedroom, which also features cosy, barefoot-friendly wooden flooring and a large en-suite bathroom. The master bathroom is fitted with a double washbasin, a shower and a corner bath with massage jets. From the conservatory, you can also access a patio (courtyard) that is almost entirely covered – partly with glass and partly with roof tiles – featuring planting areas and historic floor tiles.
At the far end of the conservatory, there is a floor-to-ceiling glazed exit leading to a small but well-shaded terrace, which serves as the access point to the roof terrace, from where you have a wonderful view of the Cumbre and all the way to the sea. The second building has also been fitted with a roof terrace, from which you can enjoy the view of your garden and the Tajogaite volcanic hill, which was formed in 2021.
On the north side of the house (159 m² floor area) is a storage or workshop room, solidly built from galvanised sheet metal.
The garden is well established with mature trees and beautifully landscaped. The garden paths and terraces are partly paved with Solnhofen slabs – a building material that may seem rather exotic for our island, but is very popular, as it is not only very non-slip (it does rain here from time to time, after all), but, above all, heats up much less in the sun than the local natural stone slabs made of blue basalt. In the garden, the planting and the well-thought-out layout provide plenty of very different spots for relaxing.
The property is fully fenced, with the exception of an outdoor area which is mainly used as a car park and also offers ample parking spaces for guests. A carport with a tiled roof (15.5 m²) has been built for the owners within the fenced-in section of the property.
The property is connected to the public electricity grid and the private ‘Galerie’ water supply network. A water tank with a cover, constructed from natural stone and concrete, is available for garden irrigation; drinking water is stored in a separate, hygienically sound tank and is constantly replenished. Internet access is provided via microwave link; satellite TV is pre-installed and can be put back into operation.
The ‘Galerie’ water, valued at approximately 17.000 euros, is included in the purchase price. Some renovation work would certainly be advisable, depending on personal taste. Both factors have been taken into account in the purchase price.
