Villa Las Brisas

A new six-bedroom, sea-view villa close to bohemian San Carlos with a new lease of life by renowned island architects Blakstad.

Renowned island architects Blakstad were tasked with conserving the traditional character of this sea view villa, while bringing it into the 21st century.

True to the brief, clean lines, white plaster and floor-to-ceiling glazing contrast with stone arches and walls to add a rustic twist. Inside, an open-plan layout unites the refreshed interiors, spread over three levels.

A double height ceiling and window bathes the main living area in natural light. Positioned on the first floor to take advantage of the wide-reaching views, the sociable kitchen, living and dining space is configured for entertaining. A large island cladded in wood, ceiling beams and an open fireplace soften the contemporary finish. Outside, there’s an al fresco kitchen and seating area, with steps leading down to a pool surrounded by citrus trees.

Multiple terraces circle the villa, dotted with chill-out corners. All bedrooms – arranged between the basement and top floors – come with either terrace or garden access. In the master suite, soothing neutral tones bring an understated luxury and accentuate the generous space, which includes a dressing area and sleek bathroom.

There’s a unique opportunity for a new owner to put their stamp on the property.
