In Contemporary, estate, island, Large grounds, luxury, Nature, seaview, Turkey

Spacious and beautifully-located villa presents an ideal holiday home in Turkey

This estate, tucked in a village in the foothills of the Taurus mountains, enjoys proximity to Kalkan Bay – and that stunning sea view – as well as a slightly cooler temperature than down on the coast, making this the ideal Turkish luxury paradise.

Six bedrooms fill the main house, while two additional buildings can be turned into additional accommodation

This estate offers 28,000 sq m of living space on 5,000 sq m of land, with a main house providing a luxurious six-bed dwelling and accompanied by two further buildings, both with accommodation.

The interior design of this impressive villa instills calm and peace

The main house has only recently been finished and provides a calming yet opulent sanctuary within these Turkish mountains. An open-plan kitchen and dining area is sure to become the hub of activity, with patio doors ensuring the glorious gardens are easily accessible for al-fresco meals.

The stylish kitchen is finished to a high specification and flows into multiple seating areas, with access out to the terrace

The grand, high-ceiling lounge area is another space that will dazzle guests, with semi-circular windows filling the space with light and inviting the eye out to the impressive, far-reaching land and the sparkling sea beyond.

The combination of an eye-catching, high ceiling and a semi-circular array of windows make this living area a delight to relax within

Bedrooms are just as large and elegant, emphasising the landscape through large, well-placed windows and ensuring each occupant has their own private slice of luxury within the villa.

Bedrooms are vast, providing ample space for seating and dressing areas

When privacy is exhausted, you may find the householders are drawn to the generously-sized swimming pool – complete with retractable windows for year-round dips – for entertainment or exercise.

The covered swimming pool has retractable windows, allowing for swimming year-round

The house is surrounded by terraces ideal for eating and lounging outside when the weather permits. These are ideal spots to soak up the dreamy views of the bay and enjoy the sense of space that such a large plot provides.

The views from the terraces and the grounds are simply spectacular

In addition to the main house, Stone House is a self-contained unit, complete with bedrooms and living spaces. It also has its own private terrace and garden area. Finally, the Homestead Farm house has accommodation options as well as stables. There is ample parking on the estate for the many occupants if the property were to be full (of all your friends!).

Greenhouses are cultivating salads and vegetables, while orchards and vineyards produce the associated goodies year round

The land of the estate is healthy and well-cultivated; there are green houses currently producing tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, beans, lettuce and onions, as well as an orchard with plums, peaches, apricots and olives growing. To complete the Turkish dream package, there is also a vineyard.

This estate could be just the escape you need in this Turkish beauty spot

Despite the winning sense of isolation, the villa is within the historic, vibrant village of Islamlar and just 15 mins drive from Kalkan Bay. For travelling further afield, the property is located 195km from Antalya where there is an international airport.

Ski-tastic 7-bed chalet in Courchevel (France), €24,000,000

On 1 August 2023

In alps, Europe, france, french, luxury, mountains, Nature

It’s a modern take on a cosy alpine chalet to provide the ideal place to warm and get pampered post-ski

Anyone who is a fan of skiing and luxury will be entranced by this glorious chalet that has become available in the up-and-coming district of Nogentil in Courchevel, France.

The dining area, complete with a bar, makes staying in the more luxurious choice

The area is a world-class ski resort and boasts access to 600km of marked pistes. The high-altitude activities are all sprinkled with glitter, from the state-of-the-art lift system to the Michelin-starred restaurants to fill your hungry bellies. There is also a vibrant nightlife scene during the peak seasons, although owners and their guests will find it hard to leave the snug yet exceptionally-glam chalet…

The seven bedrooms are all elegantly designed, with wood-paneling to enhance the comfortable cosiness

This seven-bed chalet enjoys a breathtaking view of the Vanoise massifs and is built from a mixture of old wood and local stone. It is also one of the largest chalets on this new development and can sleep up to 14 in alpine-accented elegance.

The chalet has a smart boot-room where bulky outerwear and slope paraphernalia can be neatly stored

Recreation rooms are ample for a full house and provide all the luxurious comfort one craves after a day on the mountains. There is a living room with a spacious dining area, a lounge with a roaring fire and a bar, and a balcony for the spectacular views that can be glimpsed through the windows.

The living and dining spaces are open and convivial, ideal for a large group

If you haven’t had enough exertion on your skis, there is an exceptional spa and fitness area, as well as a fitness room and a swimming pool within the chalet. For more relaxed pursuits, an in-house hammam is the place to decompress, or the home cinema and games room provide facilities for letting off some steam more metaphorically.

An indoor pool and spa facilities will be ideal for a weary, cold body to recover

All seven bedrooms are indulgently alpine-themed (why not?) and provide a comfortable respite from the snow outside. They all come with en-suite bathrooms that are finished to the same high standard as the entire property.

Bedrooms provide welcoming hideaways with superb views of the snowy world outside

The clincher has got to be the location – this chalet is just 50m from the Bellecote piste for rapid access to what is certainly the main draw at this ski resort. It is also close to the centre of town for ease when the slope activity is swapped for some shopping and dining – there are ample boutique shops, bars and restaurants to keep you entertained.

What a welcoming sight! This is a chalet to lose your heart to

Most visitors access the area via Geneva airport (170km away) but there is a closer international airport at Chambery – you can be on the slopes just after an hour from landing! There is also an altiport in Courchevel, close to this property, where you may prefer to land your personal helicopter…
