Stone Heart
A spectacularly restored home that was once the heart of a thriving tomato farm, this panoramic villa, with its generous walls of glass, offers the perfect marriage of ancient and modern—of historical bones graciously updated by contemporary finishes.
It’s a soothing haven of peace within a distinctly rugged, lava rock landscape, featuring trademark white walls, a gentle green lawn and glimmering swimming pool. Several of the 100-year-old home’s original volcanic rock walls have been left artfully exposed, and interiors are outfitted in a soothing, white-to-neutral décor palette enhanced by subtle, pale pastels reminiscent of sea glass.
Once a thriving tomato plantation that employed dozens of islanders, this abandoned farmhouse has been beautifully restored and stands as remarkable blend of tradition and modernity. Renovation began in 2016, and the home today features glimpses of its original stony volumes softened by contemporary glass and whitewashed walls. Panoramic views are abundant, and furnishings are sleek and modern, yet the home retains an easygoing, ultra-comfortable beach house atmosphere.
The home’s common areas—living rooms, office space, and kitchen—are characterized by sweeping views onto the dramatically austere seascape. The dining room of this villa for rent in Lanzarote is enclosed in glass, giving the impression of eating outdoors, and an outdoor dining table is also available for sun-soaked meals. The galley-styled kitchen features a central island with bar seating, and a dominant, exposed-stone wall anchors the kitchen space, hearkening to the home’s historic past. Two roomy bedrooms sleep four guests, and their spacious en-suite bathrooms are sleek and contemporary, one featuring a unique double shower and more exposed rock wall detailing. Plants are abundant indoors, adding to the softening of the volcanic landscape visible from every window, and billowy white curtains also lighten up the space.
Outdoors, the pool and its terrace are landscaped, featuring both rock gardens and wide stretches of reflective, whitewashed decking and pathways. A spacious shaded pergola nearly as wide as the home itself is located steps up from the pool, offering a fitness room with sea vistas to look at while working out on the free weights and treadmill. The fitness pergola opens onto the expansive lawn, and there are several outdoor seating areas, both sundrenched and shaded.
AROUND
This villa for rent in Lanzarote is located on land that was once housed dozens of families and the nearest village offers supermarkets, cafes, taverns, and pharmacies in addition to a butcher, fishmonger and fruit stand. The island’s popular Puerta del Carmen resort town is only2km away with its beaches, Playa Grande and Matagorda, and its lively fishing port El Varadero. Timanfaya National Park is only 8km from the home, with its iconic Lanzarote landscapes—volcanic, mostly devoid of trees, and ultra-rugged.
The otherworldly island’s notable lava rock national park formed as the result of volcanic eruptions in the 1700s, and the isle’s caverns were formed by underground lava flows. Hundreds of volcanic peaks give Lanzarote its almost lunar landscape, and the island’s beaches offer volcanic sandscapes in white, black and even orange.
