Description
Charming rustic-style family villa set over two floors and located in the established residential area of Ricmar, in Marbella East, between Elviria and El Rosario. This spacious four-bedroom property offers generous proportions, unusually high ceilings and plenty of potential to create a wonderful family home with some updating and personalisation.
From the moment you enter the property, its character is immediately apparent, with a beautiful handcrafted wooden entrance door featuring the Marbella emblem leading into a welcoming hallway. From here, the ground floor opens into a spacious bedroom, which is currently being used as an office, as well as an impressive living area with exceptionally high ceilings. From the living room, you can look up towards the open landing on the first floor, creating a wonderful sense of volume and space. The living room features a fireplace and currently incorporates a dining area, with large doors leading out onto a covered terrace with a beautiful vaulted wooden ceiling, offering a lovely extension of the living space.
An attractive archway leads from the main living room into a separate sitting room, which could easily be converted into a formal dining room if desired. This room connects directly with the fully fitted kitchen, which also has a practical breakfast area. A guest cloakroom is conveniently located near the entrance.
The first floor is centred around a spacious open-plan landing, overlooking the living room below and enhancing the feeling of space throughout the property. The master suite enjoys its own private terrace and features a walk-through dressing area leading to a generous master bathroom with a hydro-massage bath, separate walk-in shower, WC and double washbasin.
The two additional bedrooms are also located on this floor and share a spacious bathroom equipped with a separate bathtub and shower cubicle, as well as a double washbasin. All three upstairs bedrooms benefit from beautiful vaulted ceilings, while the unusually high ceilings throughout the property add to its distinctive character and sense of space.
The villa was designed in a traditional rustic style and would now benefit from some updating and modernisation, including a new kitchen and general refurbishment throughout. However, the property already benefits from split air-conditioning units in the bedrooms, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and a wonderful fireplace in the main living area, retaining many of the features that give the house its original charm.
The plot is currently divided into two sections by a fence, which could easily be removed to create one large and more cohesive outdoor space. There is currently no swimming pool or landscaped garden, but the generous plot offers excellent potential to create a private swimming pool, landscaped gardens and attractive outdoor entertaining areas, allowing a new owner to completely transform the exterior to suit their own taste and lifestyle.
The property also benefits from a carport with space for two cars.
Ricmar is a well-established residential urbanisation conveniently located between Elviria and El Rosario, within easy reach of international schools, local amenities, beaches, restaurants and Marbella town centre. The surrounding area is undergoing significant investment and development, with improvements and new developments planned for the wider area, making Marbella East one of the areas of the municipality experiencing considerable transformation.
A property with genuine character, generous proportions and considerable potential, offering the opportunity to create a beautiful family home in an established residential setting while retaining the charm of its original rustic architecture.
