Direct from owner! Stunning apartment with Alhambra views, Granada, Spain

For sale direct from the owner!

This stylish apartment is located within the Santisimo area at the very heart of Granada’s Albacin district and enjoys direct, unfettered views of the Alhambra Palace – a magical scene at night where the Palace is floodlit to create a magical ambience.

All of the windows of this apartment look up to the Alhambra and the balconies create a connection with the historic Palace which can’t be matched. You might think a location like this is busy and noisy but you couldn’t be more wrong – a delightful courtyard and mature gardens and a secluded location make this an oasis in the heart of the city.

Everything that Granada has to offer is on your doorstep – a huge array of shopping options, restaurants and tapas bars, schools and the working district are all within a short stroll.  This property also comes with a secure underground garage space which means you do not even have to worry about parking in the heart of the city.  Just keep the car ready for when you want to drive up to the Sierra Nevada for skiing.

This beautiful property is set within a small block of 7 apartments which enjoy a mature courtyard garden with fruit trees and a central courtyard with swimming pool, very much in the style of the Alhambra Palace itself!

The apartment itself comes with a very large bedroom suite with views up to the Alhambra Palace.  The en-suite bathroom is behind a full width carved wooden wall which adds to the charm and character of the room.

The living room is a bright space with two full height sets of French doors opening on to balconies – the views over the courtyard and up to the Alhambra from this room are simply stunning.

The kitchen is set off the living room to add to the feeling of space and has plenty of floor and wall mounted units. Topped by a black granite worksurface and it comes with all the usual appliances including oven, hob, extractor, built in fridge and washing machine.

The apartment is located on the second floor of the building (enjoying the best of the views) however, this does mean there are two flights of stairs to negotiate.

Granada

Granada’s history is reflected in its many monuments and the atmosphere of daily life.  Below the Alhambra lies the grand Renaissance Cathedral and the exquisite gothic Royal Chapel, close by is the monastery of San Jeronimo, and the square of St Nicolas.  There are art galleries, and museums in abundance, all within walking distance from the beautiful Santisimo apartment.

Santisimo provides a unique opportunity to experience the very heart of this stunning city.

For day trips outside of the city and within easy reach of the apartment, there are delightful towns and villages to visit, and even the coast is easily accessible.  Montefrio is 30 min drive; Cordoba is 1-hour drive, Seville 1.5-hour drive. Malaga and the beach approx. 1.15-hour drive.

The Sierra Nevada, Europe’s second highest mountain range, towers over southern Spain and breath-taking views of the Sierra Nevada can be seen from so many viewpoints within Granada City.

Much of this dramatic landscape is a protected biosphere reserve, rich in wildlife and home to many endemic plant species. Here, and in the neighbouring Alpujarra region, we are rewarded with some of the finest walking in Andalucía; from ancient chestnut forests to lavender and broom-clad moorland and white-washed Moorish villages.
