Description
Exceptional architect-designed home on the highest edge of Montejaque village.
A rare opportunity to acquire an architecturally unique, newly constructed detached residence set at the very top of the beautiful white village of Montejaque, one of the most picturesque pueblos in the Serranía de Ronda. This remarkable home, completed in 2005, masterfully blends the charm of a traditional village house with the freedom and privacy of a country finca—delivering the best of Andalucian outdoor living combined with absolute comfort and style.
Positioned on the highest point of the historic quarter, the property enjoys an atmosphere of peace and seclusion while remaining just a short stroll to the village’s quaint cobbled streets, cafés and local amenities. Homes of this calibre—both in setting and design—rarely come to market.
Outdoor living at its best.
Framed by dramatic mountain scenery, a fabulous landscaped garden sits directly behind the house. Filled with rockeries, pathways, and a series of enchanting terraces perfect for quiet moments or alfresco entertaining. A pergola-covered dining area, along with a refreshing plunge pool, creates the perfect setting for long summer days.
A private gate leads directly from the garden into the untouched natural parkland—your own slice of wilderness—complete with olive trees and an original shepherd’s stone hut, now thoughtfully restored into a charming guest retreat or meditation hideaway. Throughout the gardens and in the courtyards, there are delightful seating and relaxing areas, all furnished with quality British made teak furniture, all included in the sale of the property.
