Key Features

Gallery-style living room. From the main entryway you enter the large, living room with impressive two-story-high ceilings.  A wooden staircase and second story wrap around mezzanine creates a unique focal point for this impressive space.  Three sets of glass doors open on to the pool area which is surrounded by tiled terrace.

Custom eat-in kitchen.  The custom-built kitchen is a chef’s dream.  A well-designed, U-shape layout with exquisite wood cabinetry and center island which provides a generous amount of workspace. Granite countertops and all-new appliances make this  space shine.  There’s a large dining room that joins the kitchen with an abundance of windows, flooding the area with natural light.

Master suite #1.  Upstairs, the first master bedroom suite is spacious, occupying one of the turrets with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and downtown Atenas.  The bedroom opens to the ensuite bathroom, which features double vanities, a walk-in shower, and a large soaking bathtub.  There’s a spacious walk-in closet with a built-in vanity.

Master suite #2. At the opposite end of the second floor, there’s a second master suite occupying the second turret, with the same magnificent views as the first master suite.  A walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower complete this bedroom.

Guest bedrooms.  Downstairs there are three spacious guest bedrooms with a shared bathroom. Due to the ideal arrangement of the bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms could be added to each of the bedrooms, converting them into bedroom suites.

Upstairs gallery. At the top of the staircase, connecting the two master bedroom suites, is a large gallery with unparalleled views of the verdant green mountains and the church in the center of Atenas.  This space would ideally be used as a second TV room or as a home office.

Outdoor space. This home is an entertainers delight.  The exterior of the home features a 10.5’ x 26.5’ infinity edge saltwater swimming pool, which is surrounded by a tiled sundeck.  To the side of the pool is a 70m2 rancho complete with bar, wood-burning fireplace and half bathroom.  The entire area offers views that go on forever.
