This 180m2 Medina property is just about perfect. From an architectural perspective – the riad is an absolute text book classic.

In the evermore challenging search for historic riads, I am delighted that Chic Marrakech have managed to find it and take it on.

It is situated in the most convenient and atmospheric spot – next to a string of striking foundouks on a super cool street right in the heart of the Marrakech Medina – in close proximity to car parking and many of the main tourist spots such as the Musee du Marrakech, the Ben Youssef Madrasa, the Quobba Almoravid and the Maison de la Photographie – to name but a few.

Interestingly, the riad is not buried in a tangle of alleyways. It actually fronts onto an ancient pedestrian Medina route – so there is a gentle and intriguing buzz round and about.

Inside – the Moroccan architecture and Moroccan architectural detailing of the riad is superb. It boasts a sumptuous array of well preserved antique detailing – from its cedar wood panelled cladding and corbels, to its sculpted hand-painted plaster cornicing and sculpted plaster window frames. As can be seen from the photographs – the overall aesthetic is most impressive.

Finding medina real estate now in this condition and this decorative is rare.

The price is circa 2m dhs.
