7-BEDROOMED CORTIJO of approximately 1700m2 on a plot of approximately 40000m2, where all original rustic features have been maintained in exceptionally good order. The cortijo is located in a small farming community and is private from the country lane - all leisure and domestic areas are completely screened off with high walls. This is a prestige property which has been lovingly maintained, whilst retaining its traditional Andalucian appeal. The property is sold fully-furnished throughout, to include all antiquities, of which there are many. The property is currently run as a rural tourist centre with accommodation allocated for 20 people.
The land is laid out at present with asparagus and there are two water sources plus mains electricity. To the side of the house is a small orchard with fruit trees and there are clean and tidy tractor sheds, a very large hospitality kitchen workshop/activity area - once a large garage.
There are three entrances to the property from the country lane, one into a very large yard/garden, one into the main house and one through double gates onto the front patio of the house where there is a lovely swimming pool approx 7m x 4m, lots of leisure space and a BBQ - with safety surround. From the patio is access into the main house and two wings of the property, one leading into a long store-room and open-sided shed which is for machinery and opens onto the yard/garden where there is also a garage/workshop approx 7.42m x 5.93m and other large store. The second door leads into a domestic wing of the house where the current family have transformed what was once old stables (approx 82m2) into a wonderful hospitality lounge/bar/diner with many many antique items of machinery, terracotta pots, stone features etc. In this leisure area is also a large corner fireplace. Above this leisure area is an open loft of a similar size.
From the main house to the leisure room is a small link in which is a bathroom approx 2.45m x 2.33m, utility area with washing machine approx 3.09m x 2.24m, bedroom 6 and bedroom 7, both doubles.
Main House
Entrance from the country lane or from the patio. The main house, as with the leisure wing, has recently been restored and redecorated and is in impeccable order.
From the country lane is entrance into a split-level hallway approx 3.89m x 1.73m off which is bedroom 1 (double) 3.95m x 3.38m and on this ground floor level is the most wonderful lounge/diner approx 9.21m x 3.22m. The original old fireplace has been transformed into a superb canopy fireplace in which is incorporated a log oven and BBQ and log-burner fire. Off this room is access into the link and also into the typical rustic country kitchen.
Stairs lead up from the lane entrance hallway to bedroom 2 approx 3.38m x 3.19m with fireplace and terracotta floors, bedroom 3 (double) approx 3.42m x 2.50m with terracotta floors, bedroom 4 approx 3.86m x 3.23m (2 singles) and bedroom 5 approx 3.96m x 3.88m (2 singles) plus a cloakroom with toilet, bidet and handbasin.
This property is unique. Whilst retaining in the main house a lovely traditional country home, there is so much more that has been transformed from what were once animal sheds. There is still scope for further development should one wish to convert this sizeable property into a small country residence for B&B or independent self-catering units.
Approximately 50 minutes from Malaga airport and with easy autovia access, this property is located in the centre of Andalucia and conveniently placed for visiting all major cities, natural parks, skiing, the coastal resorts and, of course, golf.
