This 450m2 riad is situated in the ultimate prime location in the Marrakech medina.
As the old adage goes:- location, location, location.
Well this ancient riad is undoubtedly situated in an unbeatable location in the ultimate prime spot in Dar Bacha.
One truly can’t buy in a better place here. Its location rocks!
It is located right next to the Royal palace of Dar Bacha on the beautiful and gentrified pedestrianised thoroughfare there – in amongst the ancient palace buildings, the Dar Bacha museum and an array of super smart boutiques.
The house is a very old home indeed. It was gifted by the Pacha Glaoui to the previous owners – then bought in 2008 by the current owners and converted into a contemporary art gallery – hence its now clean crisp aesthetic.
The house was blessed with a wealth of antique detailing from its intricate woodwork that ranges from its old wooden overhangs, to decorative fanlights and slatted geiza ceilings, to some dazzling sculpted plasterwork and vintage cement tiles.
Interestingly, this Medina property compromises two houses married beautifully together and set between two equal sized courtyards.
The riad currently boasts on the ground floor a principal entrance and a grand entrance hall, a double kitchen, two patios each with ornamental bhous, eight rooms and salons, three communal loos, an array of passages, corridors and storage, and a side entrance. On the first floor there are six rooms and a spread of open balconies and seating areas. It is worth noting that there is potential to create additional rooms. Lastly, there are two different roof terraces – each with incredible views across Marrakech and the neighbouring palace with its sweeping gardens.
