The Alpujarra, up close: a 1964 modern house below Sierra Nevada
An overhanging roof, floor-to-ceiling windows and a pool facing the mountains: the story of a house ahead of its time.
In 1964, in a village of white houses with flat clay roofs, a doctor from Granada commissioned a house unlike any other: a single storey, an overhanging roof and floor-to-ceiling windows.
Sixty years later, the 2022 restoration has recovered the original joinery and opened the kitchen onto the garden of cacti and palm trees, without touching what made the house special: the mountains, always in front of it.
Casa Alpujarra is for sale exclusively with Planta Libre.
