Palacete Thebussem – classical elegance and modern comfort

Often purchasing a property involves making a choice between an old apartment in an established complex or falling for the charms of a super-new home in a high-tech building. Would you prefer the tried-and-tested solidity of a decades-old structure or are you tempted by the sleek, glossy surfaces of brand new construction?

Yet, as Palacete Thebussem proves, there is another way. Situated in the historic town of Medina-Sidonia on the Costa de la Luz, this beautiful 19th century manor house has been lovingly converted and now houses five brand new apartments.

Developers Steve and Lyn Breckon’s attention to detail has been painstaking, meaning that original features like antique doors, stonework, tiling, beams, arches, alcoves, ceilings bay windows, rosettes, bay windows and roof tiles have been carefully restored and retained to add character to the project. However, residents will also benefit from all the modern comforts that one would expect of a contemporary home, from state-of-the-art fitted kitchens to climate control and a centralised satellite TV system.

Each of the apartments measure at least 130m2 and feature an entirely separate layout, character and name: Musa, Hidalgo, Toro, Tierra and Mirador. Each residence includes underfloor heating in every room, tiled bathrooms with top quality sanitary ware and heated mirrors, fully-fitted wardrobes in all the bedrooms, double-glazed windows, fully-fitted kitchens complete with integrated hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine, waste disposal and granite working surfaces.

All apartments have distinct characters; for example Mirador contains a tower room with terrace and fantastic views.

The building also includes a rooftop terrace with heated swimming pool and is situated on a quiet street that bears the name of the illustrious writer Mariano Pardo de Figueroa, Doctor Thebussem.

Officially inaugurated at the end of last year by the Mayor of Medina Sidonia, this structure is the perfect combination of character and modernity.

Offered with in situ maintenance servicing, the apartments at Palacete Thebussem epitomise refined style, comfort and charm in an authentically Spanish setting.
