The builder calls this house ‘un capricho’, ‘una cosa caprichosa’ which translates to ‘a whim’ or ‘a whimsical thing’. Whether one interprets that as quirky, peculiar, whacky, funky or comical is irrelevant. This home is the collector’s item of the real estate world. Something you buy because you fall in love with it not because it is highly practical and functional. ‘Un capricho’ is certainly a perfect description of a home that is without doubt the most fantastical on the whole of the Costa del Sol.

It looks like a property commissioned by Fred Flintstone on behalf of the Teletubbies using the services of a stoned architect, but by golly does it work. Split into two, the main home with three bedrooms and a separate guest home with two bedrooms with the pool nestled in between; this curvy, childlike palace would be great for two families to purchase and share. Resting on a hilltop just outside the real-Spain village of Monda, just 25 minutes from Marbella, this crazy creation is surrounded by the most peaceful and stunning countryside. Gnarled trees laden with tasty olives, orchards of bright oranges set against a majestic mountain backdrop. Andalucian ‘campo’ at its best.

Aside from its head-turning good looks, the home also boasts the fact that it is absolutely not ready to move into. The builder has kindly left matters of taste up to the eventual occupant. Kitchens, bathrooms, tiling, flooring, even the exterior paintwork can all be chosen so, when finished, the home will fit like a glove. Add an estimated 100.000 euros to the asking price of 582.000 euros for these works, including landscaping, and you’ll have your own tailor-made frivolous folly. And with over 13.000m² of land, there’s plenty of room for pool parties, barbecues, lazing in hammocks and of course Fred, Wilma, Pebbles, Tinky Winky, Dipsy, La La and Po.
