Finca/Country House for sale in El Gastor, Cádiz

Beautiful country home with pool, vineyard, flowing stream and panoramic mountain views – El Jarral, El Gastor

Set in the stunning area of El Jarral, just a 5-minute drive (or a 30-minute walk) from the village of El Gastor and only 25 minutes from the historic town of Ronda, this enchanting fully gated property sits on a 2,200 m² plot and enjoys some of the best panoramic mountain views in the area.

The grounds
Automatic gates open onto a beautiful fountain and landscaped gardens that wrap around the home. A stream flows through and beneath the property, crossed by a pretty little bridge. From here, steps lead up to a castle-style terrace – the perfect spot to take in the views. Further features include a private swimming pool, a second fountain, a gazebo for evening relaxation, many shaded seating areas, a private vineyard of approximately 160 vines (the current owners make their own wine) and a large huerta on flat terraces, ideal for growing your own produce. The gardens are lit by solar lights, creating a magical atmosphere at night, and there are electric sockets throughout the grounds for easy access.

The main house
The entrance opens into a welcoming lounge with an open fireplace and air conditioning. An archway leads through to the kitchen, with a second pass-through opening forming a breakfast bar. A large archway from the lounge leads to the hallway, giving access to two bedrooms (one with hot/cold air conditioning) and the family bathroom with walk-in shower.

At the end of the hallway is a superb 30 m² room, currently used as a dining room, with a storage room and fitted wardrobe. Large windows open onto a terrace with an outdoor barbecue area – ideal for al fresco dining – overlooking the vineyard and surrounding mountains. A cosy indoor dining space in the cooler months and a wonderful entertaining area in the summer.

The lower ground floor (semi-basement)
Stairs lead down to a beautiful open-plan space with a second lounge, kitchen and bedroom, featuring an open fireplace and wooden ceiling beams. Large windows overlook a small pond fed by the stream, and a further feature window, currently holding a large decorative stone, could become a striking fish pond. This floor could serve as a completely independent apartment to rent out, or be incorporated into the main house to provide a third and fourth bedroom.

Also on this floor is a private bodega, finished to an excellent standard. Located beside the pool and beneath the stream, it stays naturally cool – perfect for storing wine – and a small window looks out onto the stream as it cascades down like a waterfall.

Private garage with automatic electric gate (could also be converted into an extra bedroom)
