Marbella
If you
have a yen for Picasso artefacts and cascading water falls,
then look no further. On the Costa del Sol at the foot of
La Concha mountain overlooking Marbella is Casa Grande, a
development of two villas and 56 ‘top end’ two
to four bedroom apartments, all with expansive views. Each
unit has its own swimming pool. Completion is expected by
2006. Prices start at E1.2m from FPD Savills.

Sotogrande
Looking
at the picture, you may think that this ski-chalet-style property
sits somewhere on a high alpine plain, but you would be wrong.
It is located in Sotogrande on the Costa del Sol. The house
comes from a specialist company in the United States who shipped
it across the Atlantic in two containers. An assembly team
followed three days later. Six weeks on and the house was
ready for occupation. Nestled among the more traditional Spanish
villas and cortijos, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom ‘post
and beam’ property is light and spacious and offers
expansive views.
