An architectural masterpiece, virtual viewing of Legorreta’s luxury villa in Sotogrande

In this video, Charles Gubbins introduces this mesmerizing geometric home design by Ricardo Legorreta, the first and only private home he ever built in Continental Europe. 

Location: Sotogrande Alto, Spain
Interior Design: LEGORRETA + LEGORRETA
Year: Completed in 2004
Price: 2.400.000 €

Designed by Ricardo Legorreta in 2002 and completed in 2004… this remarkable villa is the only private home ever built by the MAESTRO in a European country.

Ricardo Legorreta is of course the well-known Mexican architect and protégé of the great Mexican modernist, Luis Barragán.

This villa is located in the upper part of Sotogrande, and enjoys spectacular panoramic views over the green fairways of San Roque Golf Club and the Mediterranean Sea.

Once finished, it was quickly recognized by international media… and has featured in architectural magazines all over the world…

Immediately as you walk into the villa you are met with a spectacular patio or central courtyard, measuring 120 square meters and around which the house is planned. On one of the sides is a massive window come glass door from which spectacular views to the sea can be appreciated.

Typical of the Mexican influence are several water basins and feature fountains as well as then internally located swimming pool. However the most striking feature for me… is how he made colours such as red… pink and yellow feature so strongly… as well as the use of, light and shadow… All of course which are the defining characteristics of his work. Absolutely brilliant!

By the way, the accommodation comprises of five bedrooms, including a separate apartment for guests with a self-contained kitchenette, two large receptions rooms… a library… and a very ample kitchen…

This is what I call a trophy house… a real piece of art!
