This cortijo combines the Andalusian atmosphere with modern décor in a special way. The house is turnkey, has 2 living rooms, a spacious modern kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, garage, swimming pool and several terraces for any time of day, set in a beautifully landscaped garden. The house is a stone's throw from Riogordo and can be reached via a good road.
The cortijo is characterised by its mix of Andalusian old and modern new. The front part is the old part of the cortijo and has a rural look on the outside with very old rejas/ironwork, roof tiles and wooden details that give the house extra character. In 1993, a new part was added to the house in 'Ibiza' style, with lots of light and natural materials. A spacious hallway/entrance connects the two parts. In 2012, the current owner completely renovated the house in collaboration with a well-known Belgian architect.
This created a whole new interior that makes the house one with the garden, swimming pool and natural surroundings. The cortijo has two entrances and the entire property (4,680m2) is fenced.
Riogordo is easily reached by car, bike and on foot. Málaga airport can be reached within 45 minutes and the beach at the seaside resort of Torre del Mar is also around 45 minutes by car. Thanks to its central location in the Axarquía on a flat plateau, the area around Riogordo is perfect for beautiful walks or tours by mountain bike. In the village you will find all the amenities you need for everyday life. There are also several good restaurants and cosy tapas bars. Originally, Riogordo was an old farming village focused on agriculture, so you can still feel the authentic Spanish relaxed atmosphere. The village is also known for its open-air theatre where various performances take place every year.
