The hidden singularity in the heart of Ecija

Engel & Völkers presents this unique property, designed for those who value tranquility, light, and the authenticity of a historic setting with that unmistakable Andalusian character. Located in Écija, known as the city of towers, where life moves at an unhurried pace, this home blends naturally into its surroundings, offering a serene retreat without renouncing the character and essence of the area. This distinctive property, a home with its own personality, is the result of a family’s care, dedication, and constant attention from its inception to the present day, which is reflected in its excellent state of preservation. Built in 2001, the property has a built area of 561 m² on a 714 m² plot. It sits on a floating concrete slab and load-bearing walls, ensuring solidity and durability throughout the structure. The building is entirely new, whilst retaining the style of the 18th-century loggias characteristic of Écija’s so-called Golden Age, which gives it a truly unique architectural character. Its original history, as a former soft-drink factory, has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind residence, where the industrial past coexists with warm, carefully considered architecture. Particularly noteworthy are its four coffered ceilings made from century-old antique pine wood, which lend personality and authenticity to the main spaces. The home is arranged over two floors plus a tower. On the ground floor we find a spacious double-height living room with fireplace, a large fully equipped built-in kitchen with direct access to an exterior patio, a generous pantry especially practical for day-to-day storage, a full bathroom, one bedroom, several auxiliary closets, and a spectacular staircase made of limestone blocks, complemented by a wrought-iron baluster railing—features that are difficult to find today. On the upper floor there are four generously sized bedrooms, all with walk-in closets, as well as two full bathrooms. The primary suite stands out for its greater size and for having an en-suite bathroom, providing a particularly comfortable private space. Outside, the home features a pleasant pool area with views opening toward the 12th-century Mozarabic wall, a historic element that adds unique value to the setting and reinforces the property’s singular character together with a fully furnished kitchen and a bathroom. At the entrance, there is a spacious, covered carriage house-style garage, a particularly distinctive feature that enhances the property’s unique character. The home stands out for the quality of its materials and the careful execution of every detail. It has very high ceilings, with various ornamental moldings, exceeding 4 meters, which provides a sense of spaciousness and character. As for finishes, it features underfloor heating clad in natural limestone from Gilena, bringing warmth and aesthetic continuity throughout the home. In the bathrooms, hydraulic tile flooring has been chosen, while in the kitchen high-quality Italian porcelain stoneware has been used. The climate-control system is provided by aerothermal energy with a single unit, with individual room-by-room regulation, complemented in the bathrooms by a split system for greater comfort. The interior woodwork is made of antique pine and cedar, reinforcing the home’s noble character. Outside, the enclosures are high-efficiency with a Climalit system and teak-wood profiles, ensuring insulation and durability. Overall, this is a meticulously maintained home with character from its origins, where every detail reflects care, comfort, and quality in a solid, unique, perfectly preserved residence, in a setting that can be enjoyed from the very first impression.
