13 Camino del Meridiano, Sierra de Altura
$24,500,000

Amenities
Location & lifestyle
Casa Meridiana sits at 540 metres on a south-facing parcel above Sierra de Altura, with a 320° aspect that carries the eye across the valley to a thin line of coast. A sheltered micro-climate keeps the terraces usable from first light to long after sunset — the reason the whole house is drawn to face west.

Private viewings are held by appointment with the listing agent. Bring your broker; we will hold the hour and the light.
We did not design a house. We designed the walk up to it.
