Casa Cristina is a charming Andalusian house commanding wonderful views of the Sierras

Casa Cristina is perched high over the unspoiled Andalusian village of Restábal in the Lecrín Valley (which means “Happy Valley”), a 25-minute drive to the beautiful old Moorish city of Granada to the north and a similar short hop to the Mediterranean coast to the south.   It was built in 2000 in the Andalusian style, with terra cotta floors, wrought iron grilles, wooden interior shutters, and Moorish roof tiles.  A large oval swimming pool (15 x 6 metres) with blue tiled mosaics is located above and behind the house, from which you can enjoy magnificent views over the valley towards the snow-capped Sierra Nevada.  A shady eating/lounging area beckons when you have finished sunbathing.  The pool is about 175 centimetres at its deepest, yet shallow enough for supervised splashing at the other end.

 

Casa Cristina is a two-story house sleeping up to six adults.  It has one double bedroom, two twin bedrooms and one bed-sitting room, three bathrooms, a spacious open-plan living/dining area and a well-appointed kitchen.  Both bedrooms on the upper floor have ensuite bathrooms.  The house has gas central heating, satellite TV (BBC, ITV, Sky, etc.),VCR, iPod station, a CD/DVD player, broadband internet access and a printer.  An internal staircase leads to the lower floor where you'll find one bedroom with twin beds and a large bed-sitting  room with a double sofa bed.

 


 



The bathroom on the lower floor has a bathtub/shower while the upper bathrooms have showers.  The lower floor has its own entrance and a kitchenette for added flexibility.

 

Arriving at Casa Cristina, an outer staircase leads to the main entrance and a large front terrace, great for drinks and taking in the view.  The back patio is ideal for shady al fresco meals and drinks and our bocce (boules) court offers night lighting.  Orange, lemon and olive trees surround the house and a fig tree delivers delicious fruit.  A one-car garage on the ground floor level contains a washer and dryer.  The stairway to the pool area behind the house is gated.
