Located between the village of San Lorenzo and San Juan
and perched on a hill, 315 m. above sea level, the Buddha House is the ideal
-of the beaten track- luxury country house. Its priviliged position
offers magnificent views over the hills and countryside and guarantees great
sunsets.
Coming from
the main road, a 5 min. drive on a good country lane will get you to the
house. The distance to San Juan is aproximately 10 min. Here you will find
shops, banks, a post office, bars and restaurants. Several nice beaches
like Benirras, Cala Xucla, Agua Blanca are all within 20 min. distance.
Upon entering
the estate you immediately notice the great mixture of Mexican and oriental
influences adding to a friendly bohemian atmosphere. This colorful hacienda
like house is surrounded by natural stone terraces and a mature garden,
with Mediterranean plants and palm trees. The center piece of the garden
is the overflow pool with a beautiful waterfall, two kids pools, the big
Buddha statue and a Balinese pavilion next to it.
The house consists
of a big open plan living room, with a comfortable sitting area near the
fireplace and a big dining area. At the back of the living room is an open
fully equipped kitchen, a breakfast corner and a pantry. The kitchen gives
access to a cozy covered terrace at the back of the house. Along the front
of the house is a covered terrace with benches and sitting areas and a huge
dining table for al fresco dining while watching the sunset panorama.
At the right
side of the house are 3 bedrooms. The generous master bedroom has an ensuite
bathroom with bathtub and doors opening unto a terrace. The other two bedrooms,
one double and one twin, share a bathroom with shower place.
At the left
side of the house is a huge TV room. The flatscreen TV ( Sat TV, SKY, Channel+)
together with comfortable sofas create the feeling of a small home cinema.
In this room is also an office corner with a wireless internet connection.
At the back of the TV room is a guest bathroom with shower place, another
double bedroom, a small library with a sofa bed and the laundry with washing
machine, dryer and an extra fridge.
On a lower
terrace next to the pool you will find a self contained guesthouse with
an open plan living room, kitchen area, double bed and complete bathroom.
Hidden in the lush garden you will find a cute wooden cottage ‘the
love nest’. This place sleeps two, but does not have bath facilities.
