VF032  This delightful, individually designed and substantial three bedroom detached country house has its own private pool and a huge plot of land of almost five acres. It is one of a small number of properties in an exclusive gated estate, with beautiful rolling wooded countryside and wonderful views.

The house has its own gated entry and long drive, lovely rustic gardens and terrace areas. There is a farmhouse kitchen, complete with electric hob and separate oven, dishwasher, microwave and, in a separate spacious utility room, a large fridge-freezer and a washing machine.

From the kitchen there is access to the large, light and airy dining room with traditional wood-burning fire. Beyond, through double arches, is the living area. The dining room is furnished with a pine table and six matching chairs; it has large french doors opening on to one of the terrace areas and gardens. The living area is comfortably furnished with wicker sofa and matching chairs and is equipped with TV with access to SKY free-to-view channels, DVD and CD music.

Behind the dining area, a small corridor leads to a large, modern fully tiled family bathroom (new for 2008), and a twin bedded room, pleasantly furnished and decorated with cane furniture.

On the other side of the ground floor is a huge open-plan room with wooden floors and high ceilings. The first part of this cavernous room is arranged as a bureau/study area, and beyond are two single beds with bedside cabinets and fitted wardrobes. Floor-to-ceiling French doors provide garden access. This room, and the mezzanine gallery bedroom, have access to a fully tiled new bathroom with shower.

From the bureau area stairs lead to a charming mezzanine/gallery bedroom, furnished with a single bed and with its own new tiled shower room. This area can be used for a seventh person if required, though it should be noted that it does not provide complete privacy from the large bedroom below.

Off the living area a staircase leads to the upper level occupied by the master suite. This charming room is furnished with two twin beds which can be arranged as a double and has large french doors which open onto a private balcony. There is an open-plan wardrobe and dressing area, and a delightful and very individually designed ensuite shower room, which has been refurbished recently.

Externally the villa really scores top marks. There is a large shaded dining area complete with dining table and chairs; a central large terrace of natural local limestone, with small ponds and waterfall, with a water feature which links fountains, waterfalls and ponds, one of which teems with fish. There is a large block built BBQ with chimney. This area has a profusion of beautiful trees, colourful climbing shrubs and flowers.

The pentagon-shaped swimming pool is huge and has a very shallow wide ledge around all sides, shelving into the deeper area in the centre. The pool surround is paved in local natural marés (limestone) and beyond the paved areas are mature trees and landscaped garden areas, with a water feature which links fountains, waterfalls and ponds, one of which teems with fish. The totally private pool terrace is equipped with sunbeds.

The gardens feature an abundance of wildlife, including wild tortoises, hummingbird moths, butterflies and migratory birds. With its many water features and steps this villa is not suitable for toddlers. Friday change-over.

Resort information

The estate of Sant Tomeu is located inland, off a road which connects the historic local town of Alaior with the road from the airport to Cala en Porter. Despite its total seclusion, airport journey time by car (which is essential for this house) is just 10-12 minutes, and the resort town of Cala en Porter, with its lovely sandy beach and sheltered bay, is about 10 minutes. Many other beaches are within easy, quick reach, including Son Bou, the largest on the island, at about 12 minutes. The nearby towns of Alaior and Sant Climent offer a variety of good shops, bars and restaurants
