Surrounded by montain peaks and greenery, this newly-built home has all the conveniences of a modern villa. Most notable for its beautiful outdoor living space, with an infinity pool that blends with the horizon, abundant lounge furniture and an outdoor barbecue, it is also notable for its spaciousness.
There is room to accommodate eight guests, but plenty of space for everyone to relax without constantly bumping into each other – making it ideal for a large family vacation, or two families getting away together.
The villa has a combination of old and new – strong lines, large panoramic windows and a bold color scheme, combined with local tiles, rugs and furnishings. But it’s the views that steal the show.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
On the ground floor the open-plan living/dining room has satellite TV, DVD and iPod dock, with three sets of double doors that open onto the pool terrace. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, microwave, dishwasher and water cooler. The double bedroom also has doors leading to pool terrace, and an en-suite shower room.
On the first floor, the master double bedroom and an additional double room both have en-suite shower rooms and doors to a shared balcony. The twin bedroom also has a shower.
There is a washing machine and dryer. The house is air conditioned.
AROUND
Islamlar is a tranquil, unspoilt town famous for its family-run restaurants that specialise in freshwater trout. One of the oldest and best, Mahmut is just 1.3km away, with a good minimarket 1.4km away. The nearest beach is 9km away.
Kalkan is only a 15 minute drive downhill from the villa. A small resort and fishing town, Kalkan is for the most part untouched by mass tourism and appeals to travelers looking for more than a beach holiday. The Guardian newspaper describes it as “the Italian Riviera minus the poseurs.” Known for its distinctive Ottoman Greek architecture, the town is said to have the highest number of restaurants and bars per inhabitant on the Turkish coast.
Slightly farther afield is Antalya, Turkey’s main coastal holiday resort with palm-lined streets, a lovely marina and a picturesque old town, Kaleici, with narrow winding streets and old wooden houses along the ancient city walls.
