If you are dreaming of a serene, cortijo lifestyle, surrounded by nature but with amenities just a short drive away, then your search ends here. We are pleased to introduce this wonderful property made up of 2 houses (one reformed and one to be reformed), an outbuilding, and a garage in a small, peaceful hamlet. The rustic touches and the picturesque views of the surrounding olive groves and mountains are sure to steal your heart. The inviting outdoor areas are perfect for soaking up the Spanish sunshine, entertaining guests, or just enjoying the peace and tranquillity of country life. This could be your dream home in the sun, or an exciting new business opportunity offering B&B or retreats.
The cortijo is set down a track in a small hamlet between Fuensanta de Martos and Castillo de Locubín. One house has been reformed and now offers a fully fitted kitchen, a sitting-room and bathroom on the upper floor and 2 en-suite bedrooms on the lower floor. There are various heating options including 2 wood burning stoves, 2 pellet stoves and several electric infrared radiators. The second house has a dozen rooms across 3 levels and needs to be reformed, though one bedroom with en-suite shower room and the roof have already been reformed. Both houses could easily be connected in several places to create one large property if you wished, or kept separate if you wanted to run it as a B&B or country retreat.
