This is a unique and flexible country home in a rural setting with outstanding views and yet it is not isolated – access to La Higuera, Pastelero and the popular village of Villanueva de la Concepcion all in less than 10mins.
Access is off a quiet tarmac country road and comes with all mains services, a new septic tank and updated paperwork.
The main house comprises: three bedrooms, a shower room, a large sitting room (with a wood burner), smaller garden room, a kitchen (with a separate room housing washing machine, boiler and storage area), a walk-in storage cupboard/pantry and a large garage.
The house has further rooms which can create a guest apartment or a B&B. On the lower level there are a number of rooms which can be adapted to create guest letting rooms or to create a separate, self-contained apartment. The second bathroom is located in an outbuilding alongside a storage shed.
The size and layout of the property offers a house for many uses… an ideal home for a large or extended family to live together yet independently if desired. Potential for a private home with a Bed & Breakfast business with some conversion work required to install new bathrooms. A large holiday rental home that could generate a good amount of income let as a whole.
The area is incredibly popular throughout the year and offers activities such as cycling, mountain biking, climbing, walking and bird watching.
This property is prime for not just summer holiday rentals but year-round holiday lettings.
Located near the village of Villanueva de la Conception, the house is virtually on the ‘crossroads of Andalucía’ so city sight-seeing as a holiday activity is very viable – Antequera, Malaga, Cordoba, Granada, Ronda and Sevilla are all easily accessible by car, train and even by bus to historic Malaga (from Villanueva de la Concepcion).
The top level comprises: three bedrooms, a shower room, a large sitting room (with a wood burner), smaller garden room, a kitchen (with a separate room housing washing machine, boiler and storage area), a walk-in storage cupboard/pantry and a large garage.
The lower lever is made up of: a dining room with step down to a snug area with a Bronpi wood burner and a door to the terrace. There are 4 additional rooms, some of which can be used as bedrooms (all good size doubles) or converted to create a self-contained apartment. There are doors out onto the terrace and the two outbuildings which home a store and a bathroom.
The accommodation is classed as over one level however, there are steps throughout the property, so it is not ideal for those who require living without any steps.
Communications & amenities: The house is connected to mains electricity and mains water. Also, a land-line telephone and Internet are available. There is a large satellite dish installed that can be re-aligned for the watching of television from many Northern European countries. Via the Broadband connection there is enough speed to stream television.
Pool (3X x 4M) is semi above ground (previously an old water deposit now converted into a pool with filtration system). Ideal for a cooling dip during the hotter summer months.
Alfresco lounging and dining is enjoyed on two terraces.
Land is fully fenced and has various trees – olive, fig, almond, mandarin, grape vines, lemon & pomegranate.
Parking: Large garage of 27m2 and a parking area that will easily accommodate 8 vehicles.
Proximity to two superb local eateries: The house is located on a quiet country road that in one direction takes you to Pastelero which is a hamlet with two superb local ventas serving excellent cuisine using local produce. Both serve Menu del Dia at lunchtime where you can eat a 3 or 4 course meal with drinks for €10. It takes 5 mins’ to drive and it is very viable to walk if you enjoy a walk.
The house is set in a tranquil rural area close to the popular village of Villanueva de la Concepcion (approx 10 to 15 mins’ drive) which has all local amenities including numerous bars and restaurants, supermarkets, banks, 24 hour health centre, pharmacy, swimming pool, DIY stores, petrol station, bakeries, cafe, take-away outlets (rotisserie chickens, burgers, pizzas etc.), haberdashery, infant school, middle school and senior school, sports hall and sports complex to include a gym. It is a lively village with a young population and there is always something happening. It is a real working village, not a sleepy village that has been abandoned. There are 5 factories making Spanish underwear, olive mills, shops, car workshops, farming and more. Being located between two cities (Antequera and Malaga) there is always work available and the area is an affluent one.
Driving times to key places: 45 minutes to reach the Mediterranean beaches, 45 mins into Malaga cultural city centre and the same driving time to Malaga Airport. The spectacular National Park of El Torcal is 15 minutes away and it takes just 45 minutes to drive to the lakes at El Chorro and the acclaimed Caminito del Rey (a breath-taking walk on a newly reconstructed aerial walkway through the gorge at El Chorro).
