Dear readers, today is a special day for us! We get to celebrate the 10th edition of our Rural Luxury Gem blog series! This project holds a warm place in our hearts, since we feel so honoured to be the representatives of these unique, beautiful homes in Andalusia. With this series it was our intention to give you direct access to the crème de la crème of the luxury country property market of Andalusia. So, let’s give our 10th Rural Luxury Gem a warm round of applause, and let’s welcome our Modern Country Villa in Casares.
A Market Refresher: Modern Country Villa
We absolutely adore the authentic, historic cortijos of Andalusia. They are often located in the most spectacular and strategic locations. It is simply a fact that in the old days, people just had a much better feel for what the perfect location was. The downside to these cortijos is that, in order to preserve the history and their authenticity, there is only so much you can do to really “modernise” them. We all love the romantic idea of living in an authentic Andalusian country property, but the reality is not always as practical.
So, through this blog we want to introduce you to the next generation of country villas in Andalusia. They are modernised homes that bring two worlds together. Whilst maintaining what we all love, the Andalusian essence, country villas like this one have cracked the code! They are not only investing in the “modern / minimalistic” style, but really making the changes that will make the difference. They have taken the next step to truly transform the house into a brand new concept.
The New Era for Transformations
So, what does this new era entail? It is not per sé about “the modern look” (filling your house with white and beige furniture, uncluttered spaces, clean lines). No, no. It’s not about showcasing unique asymmetrical shapes in your home. It’s not about converting your home into a designer museum. Instead, what the new era is a modern transformation is really about is perfectly visible at this beautiful modern country villa in Casares.
For example, it has energy efficient solutions with a solar installation of 10KW and a central heating system with convector radiators for both a heating and cooling system. When creating a modern country villa, you have to be practical in your way of thinking. “How can I make my own life easier?”. The answer: Smart Home Technology! From the same app you can pre-heat, or pre-cool your house. You can open up the gate for guests, switch on or off the lights… And a bonus: all lights are LED and dimmable!
The New Modern
The new modern is much more sustainable, with an integrated design with its surrounding nature. Let’s go through the list together, highlighting the best features of this modern country villa in Casares for sale:
- Open plan layout. A must for ultimate comfort.
- Natural light. The more natural light, the more health benefits. An added bonus is undoubtedly that you get to enjoy your magnificent views from every corner of your home through your floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors.
- Outdoor living spaces. Especially living in Spain, the most important feature is spending time outdoors. So the more this is facilitated through lounge area, benches, outdoor dining, etc, the better!
- Private pool. This one is obvious, but we’re mentioning it because not only do you have a private pool here, but also a private sauna! That is another level of modern comfort.
- Integration with nature. By incorporating organic features in your home, you will elevate the look and feel. Terracotta and natural stone floors are traditional in Spain, but also add the warmth and durability that are characteristic of a modern country villa.
