It is situated in the Municipality of Alhaurín el Grande, at a point of equal distance between Málaga, Marbella and Fuengirola and 25 minutes from Malaga airport, as indicated on the attached maps.
The plot is generally flat and on two levels, with a very gentle slope between them, and is graced by beautiful views of the Valle del Guadalhorce. The main view facing southward, looks towards the picturesque white town of Alhaurin el Grande. The grounds are lovingly planted with over 50 century old olive trees, many orange trees, lemons, peaches, and other seasonal fruit.
The construction was planned and supervised by a very well-known and much applauded architect from Marbella, (D. R. E. G.) The building was supervised from start to finish by Bureau Veritas, who issued the prescriptive ten-year insurance guarantee. It was also overseen by Malaga technical architect (D. J. M. G.

There is a double exterior garage, a greenhouse, a Bonsai exhibition area, as well as a building with full bathroom facilities and storage area to house the automatic pumping station for watering. This two room building could be used as living quarters for a gardener or a stable hand. There is also a resting area with a large gazebo.
The main house is built on three floors. Throughout the house the floors are laid with Portuguese pink marble. On the lower ground level, there is a four car garage. This level houses the live-in quarters for home help or guests.

In June 2013 the original boiler was replaced with a new, more efficient and more economical model of the same make, the new guarantee is running from this date. Outside, near to the main entrance to the garden, and to facilitate refilling, there is a 3.000 litres underground diesel tank connected to this boiler, to last the whole year.
At the ground floor level, the house consists of an elegant entry. Accessing by the main front door, this floor comprises a hallway with toilet for guests, a modern Danish style kitchen, a living/dining room, and a bedroom with en suite bathroom, wardrobes and dressing room area.
