$1.4 Million Homes in Andalusia, Spain
Ubrique | $1.4 million (€1.2 million)
Set on 33 wooded acres, this seven-bedroom, four-bathroom property is in Ubrique, a village in the Andalusian province of Cádiz. The three-story home was built in 1940 and renovated in 2015.
One of 19 'pueblos blancos' in Andalusia — towns and villages known for their whitewashed buildings — Ubrique has been a hub for the manufacturing of leather goods since the 18th century. Jerez Airport, which serves European destinations, is about 50 miles west. Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport, with daily nonstop flights to several American cities, is about 90 miles east. Several bus routes connect Ubrique with cities in the region.
Ubrique's cobblestone center is a short walk from this property, as is the Ubrique Leather Museum, housed in a former convent.
Size: 4,574 square feet
Price per square foot: $296
Indoors: The ground floor has a double-height living and dining area with ocher-tiled floors and original wood beams. The kitchen was renovated with tiled floors, Smeg appliances and an arched entryway decorated with blue-and-white Andalusian tiles. This level also includes a large bedroom divided into four sleeping areas, with one en suite bathroom.
Two bedrooms on the second floor have en suite bathrooms, and two more bedrooms share a bathroom. On the third floor, another bedroom features a cast-iron wood stove, an en suite bathroom and a terrace with sweeping views. The home is powered by solar panels.
The owner's father, a leather wholesaler, bought the house in 1972. His son inherited the business and the property, which rents for as much as $400 per night. The home is being sold furnished, except for heirloom pieces. Artwork, by local painters, is also included in the sale.
