The entire house is surrounded by natural stone walls. Natural stone ramps connect the respective terraces, all of which are equipped with an irrigation system. Lovingly landscaped garden terraces harmoniously complete the overall impression of this house.

The guest house consists of kitchen, living room, bathroom and a double bedroom in a tower, which is accessible via a staircase from the living room. The living room is equipped with built-in wardrobe, underfloor and gas heating. The terrace is partly covered and equipped with a jacuzzi, which is shaded by a large awning.

Location & surrounding area:

Icod de los Vinos is a historically significant city that reached in the first period of Spanish colonization power and wealth for the local population by its fertile location with abundance of forests and water. Namesake was the wine that has a great tradition in this locality surrounded by extensive fincas, but also the cultivation of sugar cane and corn dominate the history of Icod de los Vinos.

Today, the beauty of the well-kept houses and colorful gardens combines with the coveted flair that comes from many wineries and wine bars, but also many small and larger shops. The landmark and tourist attraction of Icod de los Vinos is the Drago Millenario, the largest and perhaps oldest of the dragon trees on the Canary Islands. Around the central historical place, there are many beautiful houses and villas, which were built in the last decades. Their location ensures idyll and peace and yet at any time, trips to Icod de los Vinos, Puerto de la Cruz, in the mountains or the coast lures. A popular beach is located in the sheltered bay of San Marcos, which is surrounded by apartment complexes and hotels.
