This delightful spacious 180m2 riad really stands out from many of the restored Medina properties on the market.

It is owned by a lovely creative English couple – (one of which, interestingly, is a record producer, who has built a small recording studio in one of the rooms).

They have lived in the riad for the last five years and during this time they have been steadily improving the home with their own distinct homely design touches.

Recently they decided they would like to move out to the country and are subsequently motivated to sell. The price they want for the riad is competitive and stands out.

I believe it is always reassuring for buyers and a really good sign when owners live full time in a riad and have lived in their Medina property happily for a number of years. It generally means everything has been well looked after and that the house functions well.

Importantly buyers know what they are buying and there is little risk of nasty surprises.

The riad is situated in one of the most atmospheric areas of the Medina, by the stunning Zaouia mosque, on the border of Hamid Soussi and Bab Dhoukkala, and is in close proximity to the famous Moroccan restaurant Dar Yacout.

It is in amidst a wave of newly redone riads and large private residences.

One of the attractions of the location is its accessibility. Unusually there is parking close by, as well as immediate car access out of the Medina via the nearby Bab Dhoukkala gateway.

It is worth noting the property will soon boast stunning views over the Medina ramparts out across the massive Zaouia park, which is currently being redeveloped.

One of the real selling points to the riad is the fact there is flexibility with its size and space.

At present it is a nice generous four bedroom private family home, but it could easily be converted into an attractive five bedroom guest house, which would comply to all the necessary regulations to ensure it was fully licensed.

Some of the more notable features of the riad are the original Moroccan double doors and feature windows with fanlights, the spacious courtyard that is brimming with trees and scented climbers, the original wooden ceilings, the bathrooms tiled in designer Popham tiles, the open mashrabiya balcony on the first floor and the expansive terrace views.

The owners are motivated to sell and cut a deal. There is flexibility with the 2.8m dhs price tag
