Gibraltar home wins best in Europe

29 Oct 2014

Look no further than the British enclave of Gibraltar for the ‘Best Property Single Unit’, according to the judges of The International Property Awards in association with Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.

Gibraltar’s New Aloes was handed the accolade earlier this month and will go head-to-head against winners from Africa, Arabia, the Americas, Asia Pacific and the U.K.

Sandra Lamplough, Marketing Manager for Fairhomes Group, the developer behind New Aloes, said: “It’s one thing to be acknowledged as having built the best home in Gibraltar but quite another to beat off competition from the likes of Cyprus, Italy, Spain and Montenegro, to earn the accolade of best property in Europe.

Built on the site of a former Ministry of Defence building of the same name, New Aloes is a substantial 21st century home of 9,526 sq ft. It enjoys some of the best views in the world including the Rif Mountains of North Africa and the busy Straits of Gibraltar. Floor-to-ceiling wall-to-wall glazing keeps the view alive from dawn until sunset.

Some of New Aloes’ highlights include a cavernous living-dining space, a kitchen complete with 25ft long all-in-one preparation-dining island, wet rooms with over-bath rain showers, a second-floor fitness suite with a Klafs sauna-with-a-view, a 12-car garage, and an Otis lift to all floors.

New Aloes is price at £10.9 million.
