Spain’s Casa Colina - Key-ready luxury on a golf course

Poised over the 14th green of Monte Mayor Golf & Country Club’s picturesque mountain course, Casa Colina is undoubtedly in one of the resort’s best locations for views. Verdant golf, imposing mountains and Mediterranean Sea make for a very pleasant outlook from the oversized infinity pool which seems to tumble down onto the green below. If the global financial crisis has you reaching for the Nurofen, a couple of hours at Casa Colina may be the chill pill you need…

Four bedroom four bathroom Casa Colina has a well-considered floorplan arranged around an octagonal hall with minstrel’s gallery which adds style and sunlight to the villa in equal measure. Continuing the ‘polygon’ theme, the owners have also installed an octagonal library complete with bespoke furniture, Dell home computing system and a few hundred novels to occupy the mind, only pausing to soak up the 270º views. Also at entrance level is a large sitting room with French doors onto the south-facing terrace and a modern take on a solid oak kitchen with granite worktops, refectory-style oak table and leading brand appliances including an American-style fridge freezer with essential ice dispenser.

The first floor brings four en-suite bedrooms, the master with vaulted ceiling and French doors to a private suntrap south facing terrace which is also accessed via the second bedroom. Each is fully air-conditioned and ready for rest with luxurious hand-crafted Vi-Spring beds. Meanwhile at the footprint of the house, a sizeable basement accommodates a well-equipped laundry room, additional wash room, pool pump room and large double garage with automatic doors.

Outside, where most of southern Spanish living is done, Casa Colina has that refreshing infinity pool surrounded by mature brightly planted gardens, full-length south facing terracing – covered and uncovered – and a sweeping driveway accessed by automatic gates with parking for at least three cars.

Undoubtedly Casa Colina’s best asset is its key-ready status. Providing you bring the swimsuit and toothbrush - this home will deliver the rest. Completely furnished from sofas to sideboards, softly finished from artwork to curtains and with closets filled with 100% cotton bed linen and towels, the hard work has been done for you, all you have to do is relax and enjoy…
