Elegantes Haus Im Historischen Zentrum Von Cádiz. Das Vergnügen, In Einer Historischen Und Tausendjä

Engel & Völkers exclusively presents this stately and elegant 19th-century residence in the El Mentidero neighborhood of Cádiz, in the heart of the historic center, just meters from magical and typical places such as the emblematic Plaza San Antonio and the Alameda overlooking the bay.

With a built area of approximately 500 m², this beautiful house of historical and artistic value consists of two exterior floors and three interior floors, a fabulous attic where a complete apartment with a guest suite has been created, and a spectacular terrace with a fountain, urban garden, and chill-out area, providing a very relaxing oasis-like atmosphere in the middle of the city.

This exclusive house showcases the architectural style typical of the Cádiz houses of the merchant bourgeoisie of the time.

You enter through a hallway with important solid cedar security doors, after encountering the original oyster stone facade, a native material that gives the house the distinctive touch so characteristic of Cádiz buildings.

The spacious and comfortable house has been fully renovated, preserving the original historic character through wooden beam ceilings, hydraulic floors, and Flanders pine wood in most rooms, while integrating modern details of excellent quality.

Original elements rescued and carefully selected during demolitions have also been used, such as the spectacular main floor of Carrara marble, parts of the hydraulic floors, and the windows forming the courtyard and some doors, combined with excellent taste and craftsmanship.

On the first floor, there is a large hall or living room centered around a beautiful inner courtyard covered with a ”montera” roof, around which the house revolves. The blue sky and its ”salty” clarity slide in to bathe the rooms connected to the courtyard in light.

From the courtyard, you access a large modern kitchen equipped with Silestone countertops, naturally lit by two large windows, and a dining room adorned with exquisite antique hydraulic tiles, which also decorate the spacious dining room on the other side of the courtyard.

On the same floor, there is a discreetly integrated laundry area, pantry, gym, and a full bathroom. A mezzanine houses a bedroom with a built-in closet.

The second or main floor, once known as the noble area, features a living room with large volumes and elegant moldings. Important openings such as a balcony and windows give character and grandeur to its stately, symmetrical facade, receiving natural, perfect light infused with a sea breeze.

To the left of the beautiful Carrara marble staircase is the master suite, strategically designed to offer subtle privacy. This secluded area includes a hallway with a large dressing room, shoe rack, and spacious bedroom with a balcony overlooking the street, plus a wonderful bathroom with a large linen closet, compartmentalized and lined with travertine marble, Porcelanosa countertops, and mosaic tiles that add a touch of great design to the shower area.

Two additional en-suite bedrooms complete the floor, both with laminate flooring and built-in closets; their bathrooms are tiled with porcelain stoneware.

A beautiful wooden staircase leads to what could be called a magnificent guest apartment, featuring a cozy living area with an integrated kitchen, currently used by the owners as a music and entertainment room.

From here, you proceed to a small patio and a guest bathroom that connects to the impressive terrace with old clay flooring, where you can enjoy the best sunsets in Cádiz and pleasant evenings.

From this living area, you ascend to a charming double bedroom with large windows, air conditioning, a fan, and an en-suite bathroom.

All are located in a privileged area that complements this wonderful duplex attic apartment.

This unique house offers all amenities, including natural gas central heating in all rooms, Flanders pine wood frames with double glazing, solar panels for hot water consumption, security access doors, and an alarm system with video camera.

The exceptional location, spacious rooms, comfort, high ceilings up to five meters, decorative elements, large terrace, solarium, and chill-out area make it a unique home ready to be lived in.

Due to its exclusivity and the demand and interest in this residential, historical, and holiday enclave, the property could be used as a family residence, developed into a boutique hotel like others in the area, or as tourist apartments.

Past and present coexist in complete harmony in this traditional house in the center of Cádiz, whose renovation has respected the original essence without sacrificing modern comforts.

Cádiz is considered the oldest city in the West, founded over 3,000 years ago by the Phoenicians under the name Gadir, a seafaring town that gradually became an important commercial colony and was later settled by Carthaginians, Romans, Visigoths, and Muslims.

Intense trade with the Indies attracted pirates, necessitating the city’s fortification. Columbus chose its port as the starting point for his second voyage to the New World.

A cosmopolitan and open city, Cádiz has become one of the most sought-after tourist destinations for national and international visitors due to its fabulous and endless urban golden sand beaches, traditional festivals, gastronomy, and significant historical heritage.

The historic center, declared a Cultural Heritage site, is a charming destination with narrow streets and small squares featuring popular neighborhoods like El Mentidero, where this exclusive residence is located. Here, you can experience its culture and history, share its traditions, and taste its renowned wines and cuisine, highlighting fresh fish, seafood, and quality red meat.

Its excellent location captivates visitors with its history and beauty, allowing wonderful walks along the walled city perimeter, relaxation in the sunlit Alameda gardens overlooking the bay, enjoyment of Parque Genovés, or watching beautiful sunsets at La Caleta beach—magical and typical places just minutes away.

Besides its beauty, El Mentidero neighborhood stands out for exceptional services, including a wide selection of bars and restaurants offering delicious local cuisine, shops, supermarkets, pharmacies, schools, train and maritime stations, and public transport.

Nearby are shopping streets like the pedestrian Ancha and Columela, public parking such as Plaza San Antonio, and public spaces both on the streets and surrounding areas.

Two bilingual international schools are also noteworthy, located just 28 km away: The English Centre (El Puerto de Santa María) and The British International School of Jerez (Jerez), both offering private bus services transporting students daily from various parts of the province.

The millenary city of Cádiz, which also gives its name to the bay and province, is close to the stately cities of Jerez de la Frontera and El Puerto de Santa María, home to the main wineries producing the Sherry wine denomination of origin.

Other favorite nearby destinations include the ”White Villages,” notably Medina Sidonia and Vejer, less than 30 minutes away.

Few destinations offer the chance to combine beach, water sports, golf, kite surfing, hiking, leisure, and cultural activities, alongside long, famous white sand beaches throughout the province.
