SPECTACULAR EQUESTRIAN CORTIJO ESTATE NEAR RONDA – 161 HECTARES

Located just 20 minutes from Ronda, this impressive traditional cortijo estate is set in the mountains of Málaga province near the villages of El Burgo and Yunquera, bordering the beautiful Sierra de las Nieves Natural Park. Positioned at around 750 meters above sea level, the estate extends across more than 161 hectares of countryside with open views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. Despite its peaceful rural setting, it is conveniently located about one hour from Marbella and Málaga, with easy access to the coast and Málaga–Costa del Sol Airport.

The traditional cortijo has been fully renovated while preserving many original Andalusian features, including wooden doors, terracotta floors, traditional tiles, and high beamed ceilings. The residential area is arranged around a classic Andalusian courtyard, shaded by a large carob tree and offering generous parking space.

The main house (321 m²) includes a spacious entrance hall leading to a large living room with fireplace and high ceilings, a separate dining room, and a fully equipped kitchen. French doors open onto a covered terrace ideal for outdoor dining while enjoying the views of the surrounding countryside. The house offers five bedrooms, including a master bedroom on the upper floor with an en-suite bathroom. From the terrace, steps lead down to the pool area with a 12 × 4.5 m swimming pool and sun terraces surrounded by trees.

Two independent guest houses, each with two bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and an open-plan living area with kitchen, provide comfortable accommodation for visitors. There is also a separate staff house with living room, kitchen, four bedrooms, and one bathroom. Attached to the guest area is a large multipurpose room currently used for gatherings and entertainment.

The estate was previously used as a horse breeding farm, accommodating up to 80 horses. The agricultural buildings include a large warehouse, horse stalls, a foaling area, machinery rooms, and additional field shelters. There is also a 40 × 20 meter sand riding arena, currently unused and in need of restoration. Numerous trails run through the estate, with direct access to the surrounding countryside and the Natural Park.

The land includes 60 hectares of cultivable fields, currently producing hay and cereals such as oats, wheat, and peas. A 6-hectare olive grove of Hojiblanca olives produces around 20,000 kg of olives per year, equivalent to approximately 4,000 kg of olive oil, and the farmland receives agricultural subsidies of about €15,000 annually.

The property is fully fenced and includes areas of woodland where wildlife such as Wild boar, Deer, and Spanish ibex can often be seen. The estate has electricity, Wi‑Fi, and its own water supply from a natural spring and a stream, while the houses are equipped with central heating powered by a diesel boiler.

This is a well-maintained and versatile rural estate, ideal for equestrian use, agriculture, or as a private country retreat, all within easy reach of the amenities of Ronda and the Costa del Sol.
