Description
This fully renovated Andalusian cortijo is located in Villanueva del Trabuco, in Málaga province on the Costa del Sol. The property offers 569 m² of usable space on a 1,219 m² plot surrounded by olive groves, tranquillity and mountain views. Málaga is approximately 35 minutes away by car.
The cortijo consists of two independent living quarters, providing privacy and a wide range of possible uses. Its authentic character is reflected in solid wooden doors, a more than one-hundred-year-old wooden door, terracotta roof tiles, wrought-iron details, exposed wooden beams and distinctive tiled floors. Several patios, terraces, covered sitting areas and sheltered corners create a varied sequence of indoor and outdoor spaces.
The main house includes two living rooms, a dining room, a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, an office and a fully equipped kitchen. One of the living rooms opens directly onto the charming patio. The first floor contains four bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, three of them en-suite. Two bedrooms also have private terraces overlooking the surrounding countryside.
The separate guest house has its own entrance and comprises a living room, kitchen, guest toilet and storage room. Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom and a private terrace.
The plot features gardens, terraces, outdoor lounge areas and inviting places to sit. Outdoor amenities include:
- swimming pool
- covered lounge
- two outdoor showers with hot and cold water
- built-in barbecue
- large garage
- parking facilities
- several outbuildings
The cortijo is equipped with central heating. Subject to planning regulations and the necessary permits, the outbuildings could be adapted for uses such as a studio, fitness room or additional bedrooms.
The property also has a hospitality history. It previously operated as a Bed & Breakfast and received a Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award; the original plaque is still displayed at the property. The combination of two independent living areas, privacy, outdoor spaces and outbuildings suits a large family, multi-generational living or hosting family and friends.
