As well as its very pleasing lounge, dining and open kitchen areas, and its flow to the garden and pool, the ground floor includes an inviting interior courtyard (perfect to retreat to with a good book for some 'me time'), and an idyllic, sun-washed space ideal as an office, studio or library.

Upstairs, the house has four very generously sized bedrooms, two of which enjoy ensuite bathrooms. The master suite, which has an extremely useful seating/home office area, open to the room but accessed ingeniously up a short flight of stairs, also enjoys a decadent sunken bath from which, with windows open and shutters back, your bathing is enhanced by an unparalleled mountain view.

With their lovely, rich-toned wooden floors and cupboards, every bedroom provides welcome, comfort and practical convenience to match the fabulous views over the pool and terrace, gardens or out to the glorious Tramuntana.

The whole house benefits from oil fired central heating and excellent air conditioning, and also has a separate laundry (with bathroom) to keep the inevitable requirements of family life during extended visits efficiently out of sight. There are two covered car parking spaces, and a well-placed elevator to make installing yourselves and your luggage into the house when you arrive fast and effortless. This is a stunning home, beautifully maintained, and in a quite unforgettable setting.
