A sun-seeking superhero could do much worse than move in to this Spanish cliffside lair – informally known as The Dragon House but officially called Casa Acantilado (Cliff House). Offered for sale through Astrida Real Estate with an asking price of just €1.25m, the spectacular free-form property has been featured on numerous TV programmes including the BBC's 'The World's Most Extraordinary Homes'.
Clinging to the side of the cliff, the house is both an engineering and architectural masterpiece. In contrast to construction norms, the topography of the plot meant that construction had to start at the top of the property and then proceed down the cliff, towards what is now a stunning infinity swimming pool. The result is a structure which feels both organic and futuristic. From afar, the property's zinc roof resembles a dragon's scales upon the head of a sleeping dragon whilst from inside, the spectacular, unimpeded views of Spain's Costa Tropical can be enjoyed from numerous entertaining areas.
A Spectacular Spanish Lair
Combining architectural ingenuity with its sea-front position in one of Europe's most sought after coastal areas, this spectacular Spanish lair has also been utilized as a successful vacation rental. In contrast to many vacation rentals which are subject to seasonal fluctuations in demand, it's clear that this hideout could be popular with budding superheroes the whole year round.
