Villa for sale in Tafira, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Gran Canaria

This exceptional home is located on a plot of approximately 1,630 m2, of which 780 are urban and the rest is rustic. It is sold together with two adjoining rustic land plots of 1,270 m2, suitable for growing fruit trees or typical vineyards from the Bandama area. Together, the sale includes three plots totaling around 2,900 m2.

Situated halfway up a hillside, at the edge of the Protected Landscape of Bandama-Tafira, the main independent plot—where the house stands—offers unique landscape qualities. Its volcanic soil made of picón, with a garden featuring native vegetation, establishes a natural connection with the surroundings. From every angle inside the house, you can enjoy wide views that immerse you in its natural landscape.

Two features define its character: the abundant natural light entering through its large windows and skylights, and open interior spaces and volumes that convey a feeling of spaciousness, warmth, and well-being.

Built in 1999, the home totals 240 m2 of built area, spread over two floors. On the ground floor, 125 m2, the main entrance—connected to the terrace-garden—leads into a large wood-paneled living room with double height, a library, and a fireplace. This area connects to an independent kitchen, equipped with a central island and top-brand appliances, and to the dining room. A service entrance leads to a laundry and ironing room attached to the kitchen. This floor also includes a guest toilet, a storage room, and a small closet under the central staircase.

The central staircase takes you to the upper floor, 115 m2, arranged around a family room that distributes the different areas and provides access to a rear terrace-garden. Here, you’ll find the three bedrooms and two bathrooms, all with windows to the exterior. The main bedroom, as a suite, includes a walk-in dressing area and an independent bathroom, while the other two have built-in wardrobes.

The home is built with first-rate materials and equipment: Technal aluminum frames, safety glass with acoustic insulation, and motorized aluminum shutters. The flooring combines parquet in the main living room, black granite from South Africa in the kitchen and dining room, Carrara marble in the bathrooms, and wood laminate in the bedrooms and the upper-floor family room.

An elegant pergola with a metal structure surrounds the main façade, protecting the outdoor area from excessive sun exposure and, at the same time, providing covered parking for two vehicles.

Oriented to the southwest, the home has domestic hot water from solar thermal energy and a recent installation of photovoltaic panels, resulting in significant energy savings and granting it the highest energy-efficiency certification: A. Its current layout allows for extensions in the outdoor area and reorganization of the interior spaces, if you wish to increase the number or size of rooms.

This modern design villa with urban comfort fits perfectly into its rural setting, ideal for a lifestyle connected to nature, in a quiet and relaxing environment, just 15 minutes from the city, your workplace, or the beach of Las Canteras. Sleep in complete silence and wake to the birdsong and the breeze of the trees surrounding the home. All services—supermarkets, pharmacies, schools, and a health center—are nearby, with close neighbors but without feeling isolated. You can also grow your own vegetable garden or enjoy walks and sports in the Bandama volcano landscapes without needing a car.

The home was designed by the architects Federico García-Barba and Cristina Vázquez de Parga, and was selected for the prestigious Manuel Oraa Regional Architecture Award 1999-2000.
