Desirable authentic finca (circa: 1904) located in a private setting, just a short drive from the village of Competa. Previous owner in 1980's was a member of the Waldorf family of America, the house was then named and remains Finca Astoria as a nod to the famous hotel Waldorf Astoria in New York.
The house has accommodation distributed over two floors comprising, three double bedrooms (two with en-suites), a dressing room and a guest shower room. All bedrooms have access out to a large roof terrace. To the ground floor is a spacious open plan family living & dining room, two seating areas with a log burning stove, a bar and an Andalusian style fitted kitchen with entrance/dining hall. In addition, there is a useful utility and storeroom.
Previously owned by the Astoria family, the second richest family in the US, this unique property displays original character features, including thick walls, beamed ceilings, nooks & recesses and wood windows with shutters. For comfort throughout the seasons the house benefits from air conditioning & heating, ceiling fans and a log burning stove within the main living area.
Opening out from the finca, the large covered and arched terrace offers an idyllic spot to either dine or relax and while away the hours in the amazing climate. This overlooks the established lush garden well stocked with Mediterranean shrubs, elegant cypress, olive trees & palms. To the side of the property the inviting swimming pool (solar heated) and expansive sun terrace ~ together further enhance the ‘al fresco’ way of life here in Andalusia.
Standing in an elevated position with a south facing orientation capturing the verdant countryside. The property has easy access from the village. Its approach via a concrete track takes you to a garage and ample parking space.
Offering an abundance of character, with many features, excellent secluded outside space and its convenient location, one would not fail to fall for its charm. Properties like this rarely come to the market, so early viewing is advised so as not to miss the opportunity of becoming the new proud owners.
