Ground Floor
On the
ground floor is a dining room, family room, internal courtyard,
large sitting room with fireplace and a kitchen with 4-ring hob
and oven, large fridge-freezer and washing machine. The sitting
room leads onto a large, covered veranda overlooking the walled
garden, terrace and pool. The garden is a mix or traditional
orchard and lawn with shrubs and climbers.
First Floor
On the
first floor, the master bedroom has a super-king double bed and
spectacular views over the orchards and mountains. The en-suite
shower room has a large arab-tiled shower. The adjoining
bedroom has built-in bunk beds and can be used either a
children's bedroom or a dressing room. The second double
bedroom has a standard double bed, walk-in wardrobe and en-suite
shower room with tiled shower. The single bedroom retains an
original curved fireplace. The main family bathroom has a
shower in the bath and is accessed from the first floor
landing. There is a small terrace off this landing. The main
roof terrace is on the second floor.
On the landing,
there is a wireless access point for broadband. We do not
provide a computer, but access to broadband is free.
Garden
At the
back of Casa Larga is a large, walled orchard with a private
pool alongside and paved terraced area with citrus trees that
provide welcome shade in the Summer. The curved shape pool is
8 by 5 meters and 1.4 metres deep all over. The terrace links
the pool with the veranda. There are 5 sun-beds, 8 chairs and 3
round tables in addition to the tables and chairs that are
provided for the 3 other external terraces in the house. Close
to the pool, is a large, built-in barbecue under a pergola.
This Winter, we have started additional landscaping. We have
planted over 40 new shrubs and herbs as well as creating a
'dry-garden' space in the middle of the garden. We have had to
hard-prune many of the orange trees as they have been getting
over-mature. Due to the rain in the Autumn, the trees are
bushing out rapidly and we hope to restore the shape of these trees
within the next year.
