This beautifully light and airy house is set within exquisite landscaped gardens in a quiet situation, surrounded by nature, yet enjoying the convenience, facilities and security of a gated community. The property is centrally-heated and fully air-conditioned. At the entrance to the community there is a staffed gatehouse and barrier.

The house is surrounded by a fence and ornamental hedging and features three electronic access gates: one to the main house, one to the staff house and service area and one to the boathouse and lower garden.

One hour or so from the bustle of Madrid and its international airport, it provides a perfect serene antidote to life in the fast lane, whether as a weekend retreat, a holiday home or a permanent residence. Embalse de Entrepenas, more than 15 kms long, is extremly beautiful and offers unparalleled access to waterskiing, wakeboarding, sailing, windsurfing and fishing.

Relax on the large terraces, open and covered, from where there are stunning views of the lake, or work out in the gym, take a dip in the pool, or simply lay back in the Jacuzzi or sauna. Play outsize chess or paddle tennis, take a morning walk/run round the estate or jump on a quad for a ride along the many trails around the lake. There is a Topper sailing dinghy to test your sailing skills or turn up the revs on the speedboat and take the family waterskiing or wakeboarding. Pack a picnic and find your own idyllic spot for lunch on the lake, in one of the secluded bays, or on land, where you can explore protected bird sanctuaries and unspoilt nature reserves. Venture further afield and explore the Roman remains, the Alto Tajo Natural Park. Or visit various castles and monasteries and the many attractive villages and restaurnants where you can enjoy specialities such as the local good quality wines, cordero lechal (milk-fed lamb) or cabrito asado (young roast goat).
