Hello, I'm José Carrasco with you once again from the island of Menorca
it's just after the Christmas break and I would like to take the opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year 2013
and from this spectacular countryside just about 20 metres from where I am
we find this magnificent exclusive house which I am going to show you today
As I said, just a few metres from this unspoilt cove on the island of Menorca
I want to show you this magnificent house in a totally Menorquin style
built on a plot of 1.100 square metres
it has a built area of 200 square metres
plus the covered terrace, which you are looking at
it really is a lovely house
very homely, later we'll take a look at the inside
here we have a swimming pool in a rustic style, an infinity pool
and the location is unimaginably privileged
even at this time of year in January
let's enjoy the wonderful outside
as you can see, we have this large covered terrace
from here we can see that the surroundings are totally natural
as I said, it is all on one level
and I think it is something important to mention
there are no architectural obstructions or staircases
here we have a sitting room which leads to the dining room, as you can see
there's lots of light
the design is superb, as are the finishes
the carpentry is of the highest quality, it's made of teak
the floors are finished with rustic tiles, handmade ones
here's the pool which we saw earlier
it's a joy to be here enjoying the scenery, and as I said earlier, even at this time of year
however, in the Spanish peninsular, the climate at the moment is very different to Menorca
it is much colder there
let's have a look in more details
this is the kitchen
as you can see, the kitchen has an island and an eating area
and it has a laundry area too, which can be closed-off
and let's take a look at the bedrooms
I would also mention that the house has central heating
it is an oil-fired system
and let's start looking at the master bedroom, the master suite
there is a dressing area
with a wash basin
and here we have a shower and the rest of the bathroom
again we can see that we are surrounded by greenery
and from we can see here where the bed is, that the wall is finished in natural marés stone
the same finish as on the south facade, the house faces south - this is important
all this is also in natural marés stone
and as you can see there is a lovely view from the master bedroom
let's move on so that the video is not too long
I want to show you the most important areas
here you can see that the construction of the house is divided in two parts
here is the main entrance
I think I've confused you a little, but here it is
with this large glazed door
it's a very grand entrance for this Mediterranean-type house
here we can look at the other bedrooms
here we have a study
and a bathroom
let's look around the studio, which has access to the outside
this is the bathroom, and this is built in marble, with natural colours
the beams and ceilings are high in all of the house
and this bathroom is shared with this bedroom and with the one adjoining
it has in total five bedrooms and three bathrooms
this is the other bedroom
as you can see it is very bright
it has built-in wardrobes, here is one of them and here is another
what I should also mention is that the house has a flat roof used a sunbathing terrace
here is another bedroom
it is a very cosy house
the current owners live here all year round
and in reality they truly enjoy living here
it is a house that is not just wonderful in the summer, but also in the winter, as I said earlier
you can really enjoy the scenery of Menorca given the tranquillity that we find here
actually there are only a few houses here
here at the back there is a barbecue area
and the sun terrace I spoke about earlier, it's a pity that is not used so much in the winter months
they tend to use the covered terrace that we saw at the front
here we have as you see the barbecue area
there's a storage room, and here is the machine room and the deposit for the gas oil
and I mentioned about enjoying the house for the whole year
this area is used much more in the summer, this area up here, as a sunbathing terrace
and it has an assortment of cushions and sofas placed in this area, but not today
and let's take a look from up here of the landscape, which is so special
it really is a very privileged position
it is very quiet
and views of the sea, which is just a few metres from here
where there is the unspoilt cove which we saw at the start of the recording
without a doubt it is very select, and a real opportunity
these houses come on the market only once in a while
