Route de l’Ourika – A Distinguished Marrakech Residence Designed for Outdoor Living
Nestled along the Route de l’Ourika, this remarkable residence unfolds across approximately one hectare of landscaped grounds, offering an exceptional sense of space and privacy. With around 900 sqm of built area, the property has been conceived to make the most of Marrakech’s climate, creating a seamless dialogue between the interiors and its extensive outdoor spaces.
The layout begins with two distinct access points, carefully separating the private arrival of owners and guests from service circulation, deliveries such as gas and waste removal.
Inside, the entrance leads into a generous reception hall. A fireplace salon opens onto the dining room, which in turn extends towards the landscaped patio and the terraces surrounding the villa. A second fireplace lounge and guest WC provide additional reception space.
The ground floor is also home to a principal bedroom opening onto its own furnished terrace. The adjoining dressing room leads directly to a private enclosed garden, complete with an outdoor shower and bathtub. A generous bathroom offers a bathtub, separate shower, double vanity and WC.
The kitchen is fully fitted and equipped, with an adjoining dining area, office, large pantry and laundry room. Its immediate access to a dedicated terrace makes outdoor meals particularly easy to arrange.
The upper level houses three further bedrooms. One includes a balcony overlooking the Domaine de l’Atlas and a spacious bathroom with double vanity, shower and separate WC. Another offers a sitting area and office, together with a bathroom equipped with double vanity, shower and WC. The third bedroom is a master suite opening onto a private terrace and featuring a dressing room and bathroom with shower, double vanity and separate WC.
The outdoor areas have been designed as a succession of inviting living spaces. The central patio opens onto the pool, where a fountain and pergola frame a lounge and dining area. The generous pool deck provides ample space for loungers, while an outdoor WC serves the pool area.
Further into the gardens, a second pergola creates an independent summer entertaining space, with a dining room, kitchen, bar, plancha and various equipment for enjoying the property during the warmer months. The pool is not heated.
Above the gardens, a raised solarium terrace offers elevated views across the mature park, swimming pool and Atlas Mountains.
The two borjs provide additional spaces and amenities. One accommodates the pool machinery and storage for cushions and hammam equipment. The other houses a dining room and a marble hammam with an adjoining shower. An independent ethnic-style bedroom adds another private space, with an insert fireplace, sitting room and bathroom. A further room can serve as a games room or be adapted to suit the requirements of the future owners.
The mature gardens are enriched by numerous fruit trees, including pomegranate, lemon, orange, grapefruit, fig, plum, apricot and peach trees. A vegetable garden, chicken coop and pétanque court add to the authentic outdoor character of the estate.
Two water resources provide additional autonomy: a registered artisanal well of approximately 73 metres in depth and a borehole of approximately 150 metres. A 20 sqm water reserve is used for garden irrigation.
The technical infrastructure includes a dedicated technical room with access to the crawl space, fibre optic internet, a functioning telephone installation and an individual electricity meter. The transformer serves both the property and the surrounding area, with average electricity consumption estimated at approximately MAD 4,500 per month.
Central gas heating, split air conditioning, heated towel rails and solar panels complete the technical specifications.
The property also offers parking for three vehicles and a dedicated drop-off area. Approximately 80% of the furnishings may be retained, including selected designer pieces, preserving the cohesive aesthetic of the residence and allowing it to be enjoyed immediately.
