Description
A beautifully positioned 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom chalet-style villa with private swimming pool, extensive gardens and its own olive grove with 47 productive olive trees, set on a generous 2,875m² plot in the peaceful hamlet of Genilla, near Priego de Córdoba.
Tucked away from the road behind gated access, this attractive 198m² single-storey home offers an easy-going Andalusian lifestyle, with plenty of space both inside and out. From the moment you arrive, there is an immediate feeling of privacy and tranquillity, with mature trees, established planting and a large carport setting the scene. The property is ideal as a permanent home, a lock-up-and-leave holiday retreat or a countryside base for enjoying the very best of inland Andalucía.
A raised terrace gives access to the welcoming open-plan living and dining area, creating a sociable heart to the home. The fitted country-style kitchen sits conveniently alongside the dining space, while the accommodation includes three large bedrooms and two shower rooms, making the property practical for family living and visiting guests. Two of the bedrooms are arranged as twin rooms, with the third offering comfortable double-bed accommodation.
One of the real highlights is the wonderful outdoor entertaining space at the rear of the villa. A large covered alfresco dining terrace incorporates a feature barbecue and summer kitchen, providing the perfect setting for long lunches, evening meals and relaxed entertaining during the warmer months. More garden extends the rear. There is also a second fully tiled shower room, together with useful storage space beneath the property where the pool equipment is also located.
Outside, the grounds are where this home really comes into its own. The large private swimming pool is surrounded by established gardens and plenty of space for sunbathing, relaxing and enjoying the long Andalusian summers. A dedicated children's play area adds another family-friendly feature, while beyond this a gate opens onto the property's own olive grove, giving the land a genuine rural character and offering the opportunity to embrace the area's traditional agricultural lifestyle.
Genilla is a small rural hamlet within the municipality of Priego de Córdoba, surrounded by the rolling countryside and olive-covered landscapes for which this part of Córdoba is renowned. Recent official municipal records place Genilla's population at just over 300 residents, giving it the peaceful atmosphere of a close-knit country community.
The area sits close to Priego de Córdoba, one of the best-known towns of the Córdoba province and part of the spectacular Sierras Subbéticas landscape. Priego is particularly famous for its historic centre, handsome Baroque architecture and its long-established olive-growing tradition.
There are also opportunities to enjoy the countryside on foot, with the Río Genilla and surrounding landscape offering attractive routes and natural scenery.
This is a property for enjoying space, sunshine and outdoor living. Spend the morning by the pool, gather around the barbecue for lunch, let children enjoy their own play area and finish the day overlooking the olive trees as the countryside changes colour in the evening light.
Being single level, the villa is particularly convenient for everyday living, while the extensive plot provides privacy, flexibility and plenty of scope for making the gardens your own.
Sold part furnished and ready to move into, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial country property with a pool, mature gardens and olive grove in a genuinely peaceful corner of Andalucía.
