Palace-like homes are cleverly concealed behind the facades of typical Spanish town houses, such as this one in Benissa. It is unimagineable, from outside, the incredible amount of space to be found inside, with patios, sunny interior courtyards, extensive terraces and hallways of grand proportions, among the hidden surprises. The property is situated close to the centre of the picturesque town of Benissa, on a secluded secondary road, a typical feature of Spanish towns, being high stepped and free of cars. On entering this palace-like town house, "Raco d´ Art", from its location on this quaint street, the impression of being cast back in time, to the days of Spanish colonial wealth and power, prevails.
This unique property comprises the gallery and home of artist and sculptor Karin Hauke. The building is 400 years old, and was painstakingly restored in 1996, and today is a true reflection of how it would have looked then. Authentic wooden beams complement the solid walls, presented in brilliant white, while antique Spanish floor tiles and a patio full of plants and weather beaten sculptures enhance the period effect still further.
Now, however, this outstanding example of Spanish history is to be sold as Karin Hauke wishes to close the gallery and devote herself to painting. Examples of her work can still be found in the living areas, in the hall and first floor lounge, for example, and in the unusual upper terrace, below the roof, designed as a place of refuge, from where views across the roof tops of Benissa can be enjoyed at all times of the day.
